A quick note from Jevic
     I guess the first question is what is a ube? Since the author's name is Ube Licker, I guess we should answer that question. A ube is simply a yam ... a sweet potato. The Filipino call a sweet potato a ube. Check the picture. That's a ube! Kinda phalic isn't it! LOL!
    "Beautiful Soul" by Ube_Licker was recommended to me by my editor. He has excellent taste in stories and knows exactly the kind of story I like to read. He has recommended some real gems in the past, so I naturally started to read this one. By the end of the first chapter I was hooked and by the end of the 8th chapter I sent Ube_Licker an email of congrats on a wonderful story along with an invitation to post it here. It is with great pleasure that I recommend this story and to offer it to you directly from this site. Enjoy the story, the beautiful descriptions of the islands and some of the history of Hawaii.
          Ube_Licker has written a second story that's only found here at the Tarheel Writer! "Quarter for Your Thoughts" comes complete with a talking quarter! LOL! You'll have to read to see what I mean. Enjoy!

          A few years later, at my parents' funeral, Mrs. Cassidy approached me and told me more information about the school, as if she had been researching. She told me that it was what my mother would have wanted. It would take another couple of years till I finally attended Montega Academy.


Quarter for Your Thoughts by Ube Licker
"Quarter for Your Thoughts"
2 Chapters
Rated PG-13
          “If you hold the souvenir like so, you get to see the falls glitter up like this,” I explained to the happy family. The father was bald. His beer belly bulged like a beach whale. The mother was perky and most probably a victim of Prozac. The son and daughter were twins. One had a large nose and thick glasses. The other had a crooned up face and suffered from early childhood obesity. I couldn’t tell who was who.
          “Is there a princess living under the water falls?” one of the hideous children asked. I forced a smile and nodded. The freak show of a family was mesmerized. I closed my eyes and pretended that I was miles away. Not just from this lowly gift store, but miles away from this ugly and repressed town. I opened my eyes. Nope. I was still here. I’ll at least make a show out of it.
