  1. Hmmm… I do not see the point in this. He’s not even trying to stand up for his dream. There’s no sense of resolution to this story. There needs to be some more to make this a rounded story.

  2. Poor Vihn (or Vinh, as I have seen it spelled also)–his Mom is right, and he is right, and America is the place to take risks.

    Cat’s right–unless I just go with my impression of the characters (I think Vihn is going to do as he pleases, the going will the rough, but he will succeed, though Mom and Dad will never change their minds), the story doesn’t exactly resolve. BUT–I’d enjoy reading the whole story. I like these characters.

    My brother’s wife is an American citizen, but she’s from Taiwan and she’s still Chinese to the bone (also American to the bone; she can do that) and the conflicts between her and my nieces is epic. Not just generational conflict, but also cultural conflict.

    Nice beginning. Had to laugh just now–you are taking your own little poll, aren’t you? Gauging reaction to these snippets to tell you what to write next. Good!
