"Zaza Koshkadze was another author that captured my heart. Traveling to the United States for the first time from the country of Georgia, Zaza came not only as a poet and author, but as a shining example to his country of what kind of change and success one person can accomplish. He was inspiring and enjoyable as a panel speaker, which having English as is his second language made it even more incredible! In between panels and parties I got to learn a little bit more about his country and his writing. I look forward to remaining lifelong friends and writing peers with Zaza, as he is a very talented writer and genuine person. I hope the WorldCon committee will decide to bring him back to the states in 2016 for the Kansas City WorldCon."

This is an extract from Heather Lee Dyer's blog "How WorldCon 2015 changed my life", which was written about conference "Sasquan 73rd World Science Fiction Convention" known as Hugo Awards.

Modern Georgian author Levan Tsertsvadze (Zaza Koshkadze) participated in the conference in Spokane, Washington, United States, with the support of the Georgian National Book Center.
