I recently came across this post on Weibo, China's Twitter-like "microblogging" service:

Anyway. In related news, two other bloggers also posted very nice reviews of "Zugzwang:"

"The story was excellently crafted. The plot had tension and several layers of things going on, yet no word seemed redundant and all of the sentences were simple-yet-varied."

"This story could’ve been bleak, but instead it made me happy and hopeful."

Finally: I'm going to be at #SiWC this weekend, along with at least two other VP alums. It's my first time attending this particular conference. Excitement!
