Your Everyday Hero: Dad C.

My father is the kind of person who actually encouraged me to be easy going. I am a huge sci-fi fantasy fan and he and I have gone to conventions, played video games and always reminded me that I have someone to talk to.

Unlike my mother who has not supported or understood me. I remember a time when my mother and sister were in California for some acting thing. He and I started to really bond, he always told me that no matter what mistakes I make, no matter how the world turns, we are always family. He taught me how to survive my mother and how to ignore the ridicule and be myself. He inspired me to be a writer of Japanese Mythology. To this day, my father is the reason I write and I work.
