Not every mentor looks the way you expect

Chris Atriya isn’t trying to impress anyone.

He’s not selling glory.

He’s not making promises.

He’s simply telling the truth.

Sometimes the most important people you meet are the ones who tell you what you *need* to hear… not what you *want* to hear.

  1. Perhaps what we take from that honesty is ultimately a matter of perception — each person will understand it in their own way and take from it what they are ready to see. Thank you for sharing this.

  2. I love your pictures as well as they show Korean features ❤️😇🙈

    1. When I started writing, Koreans weren’t popular, which was part of why I chose my comic book name (although mostly because I love comic books). Now I let people know I’m Korean American and always like to have Korean American characters 😁

      1. What a beautiful arc—from feeling like Koreans weren’t marketable to proudly centering Korean American characters in your stories. That’s reclaiming something. And those pictures in your work show exactly why representation matters. Thank you for writing the stories you needed to see. 💙

      2. No problem! I’m just thankful I can reap the benefits of kpop stars and kdrama leads. I’m happy to be fetishized, lol!

      3. I love this energy! Life’s too short not to enjoy beautiful people and beautiful stories. No apologies needed. 😄💙

      4. I agree! 💙
