This whole time, as a new writer, I have been so focused on ticking all the checkboxes of being a good writer. At the end of the day, I don't even get a good noodle star, I just get OCD

It might’ve been the writing, but I had a hard time relating to the other stories.
The most interesting stories for me are The Kontrabida and The Miracle Worker. Not to spoil too much, but the mother and the maids are so familiar and kind and ten pages later you don’t know them anymore. (🙈)

In the beginning scenes his white mother and white friend knew more about certain happenings in the Philippines than he himself, a Fil-Am.
He also gets called out/explained to by other Filipinos who have lived in the country.
