I am a civil engineer who worked in Vietnam for about 11 years.  When Vietnam surrendered in 1975, I was employed in Papua New Guinea.  I worked in PNG for about 30 years.  My last employment was with J. D. Hayes, a private company that deals with steel fabrications and construction works.

While in overseas, I used my spare time writing novels and short stories in my native language.  I have so far written nine stories.  When I retire in 2007, I started writing here in Manila.

My problem was, every time I went to publishing companies and present my work, they always say that I am not a known writer and rejected to publish my work.  Good thing my son advised me to try my luck with wattpad.  And that did the trick.  I was able to published all my works.
