OFW: This is My Life and Story was inspired by my spellbinding life story as an OFW in the UAE for 20 years; added by the roller-coaster events, sacrifices, love for family and the unending struggles of OFWs that never been told before. "A true-to-life inspired novel coupled with fiction drama about OFWs' life."

It all started with Marco Fernando, an Overseas Filipino Worker, also known as OFW in the Phiippines. His dream to pursue higher education, good life and financial freedom falters when his parents cannot support him anymore. He tried to cover-up his weaknesses through his classmate Ayah. Along the way, he met another woman, Danielle who fall in love with him, which he used her for his ambition in life, without the knowledge of Ayah. Until, the two women met and Marco Fernando lived with Ayah through poverty.

I did not move at first, I was shocked because the person in front of me was Edward's son. I knew Ronnie too well. His family name was Castor. Danielle used him to influence me badly for the cough syrup addiction. I slowly came nearer to him. I asked him who his father was. He answered me, Edward Castor. I slowly fingered my handkerchief in my pocket and wiped the blood on his face. I called the attention of Tony to helped Ronnie got in the car. I drove fast the highway going to the nearest hospital for treatment of Ronnie's cuts.
