Listen When I Speak

Hello again, readers. This week, I wrote a modern version of Phikul Thong. I was having trouble coming up with this story until I realized that, like any good writer, I could make things metaphorical. Enjoy this story about family and curse words.

Now imagine this, metaphorically, coming out of your mouth.

Phikul Thong

I wonder what these flowers taste like.

Greetings, readers. Today's story comes from Thailand. Phikul Thong reminds me of a fairy tale we've already discussed, Diamonds and Toads, but there are some small but important differences. Click the link above to read this story, and continue below to analyze it with me.

Repercussions

Hello again, dear readers. This week, I wrote a modern version of The King and the Ju Ju Tree, which we looked at last time. This is a heavy one, readers. I wrote it taking place after the traumatic events of the fairy tale, from the point of view of the daughter. There is a panic attack in this story, so if that will upset you, maybe skip this one.

It sucks feeling that scared.
