Yen Ooi

Dr Yen Ooi is a Hugo Award finalist narrative designer, writer, editor, and researcher with a diverse portfolio of work from short stories to books, poetry to computer games, academic papers to non-fiction books. Her interests lie in the connections between storytelling and the real world, delving into culture and philosophy—most recently, culminating in zoefuturism. Her latest projects include Rén: The Ancient Chinese Art of Finding Peace and Fulfilment (non-fiction) and Tales of Seikyu (game). When she's not got her head in a book, she lectures, mentors, and plays the viola.
