Editing Asako Yuzuki (section)

===Early work and debut===

In 2008 Yuzuki won the 88th All Yomimono Prize for New Writers for the short story "Forget Me, Not Blue", a story set in a Protestant all-girls school in Tokyo dealing with themes of bullying and female social dynamics. The story was first published in the literary magazine ''All Yomimono'' and later collected with three other connected stories into the volume ''Shūten no ano ko'' (終点のあの子, ''That Girl at the End of the Line''), published in 2010 as her debut book.

In 2011 her novel ''Nageki no bijo'' (嘆きの美女, ''Lamenting Beauty''), about a woman who becomes frustrated with the prevalence of attractive people online and attempts to vandalize a beauty website, was published by Asahi Shimbun. It was subsequently adapted into an NHK BS Premium television comedy series starring Akiko Yada.
