This inspiring read says, "Yes, you can," to women who have dreams of their own.
Story Behind The Book
As most readers have noticed, my life shares some distinct similarities with that of my main character Glen. This definitely doesn't please my Korean wife Gye Yeol. However, as I keep assuring her, I simply ignore any voices that I hear inside my head.
