King Chat/Parichat Salikupt

King Chat (กิ่งฉัตร), the pseudonym of "Pui (ปุ้ย)" Parichat Salikupt (ปาริฉัตร ศาลิคุปต), was born in 1968 (2511). Among one of the most popular novel writers in Thailand, her writing styles are what brought her fame and popularity as a Thai writer. King Chat graduated from Thammasat University (มหาวิทยาลัยธรรมศาสตร์) in Bangkok, Thailand with a degree in journalism and mass communication. Throughout her life, her passion is always in writing.

Prior to her writing career, King Chat first began writing Thai novels in Satriwithaya (สตรีวิทยา) high school. At a young age, she has read over hundreds of books and gain a broad knowledge and insights of all sorts of life stories out there. This caught her interest to begin as an amateur writer in the junior year of her high school, and eventually lead her to writing a short story with a friend in class. They both took turns reading and writing the story with each other. During her second year in high school, she submitted articles and stories that she has written to the newspapers and magazines. Remarkably, the content and writing style of her works interested many newspapers and magazines such as Kwanruen (ขวัญเรือน). Eagerly, this motivated King Chat to continue writing even more.

When King Chat entered Thammasat University, she began writing novels in her fourth year of college. Her successful novel called “Pornprom Olaweng" (พรพรหมอลเวง) has received many praises from many readers since its first publications on the magazine. In 1992 (2535), the praises had grown so strong that made Channel 7, a local television station in Thailand, decided to purchase her compositions into their acting career industry. Within that same year, channel 7 had created a soap opera out of her novel which brought many attentions to the viewers and got incredibly high ratings from them as well. With the phenomenal ratings that the book and movie received, the novel has also been made to play on air again in 2003 (2546). During her college years, King Chat has also worked as a journalist at a Newspaper Branch for about two years. As a journalist, Kingchat has written and published daily news in the newspapers.

Eventually, she moved apart from journalist to become a serious fiction writer. Today, King Chat has written over 33 well-known and popular novels in Thailand. In addition, more than half her books have been bought by TV productions to be made into Thai dramas/lakorns. With a successful career in writing, many people often wondered where King Chat got her inspiration to write her plots from in her stories. King Chat responded, “I got the inspirations from all around me.” King Chat enjoys living life, whether staying at home or going out, she always see new things happening every day. So, whenever she encounters a situation that she finds quite interesting she would use it to write a story. She takes real life situation and uses them to create her plots to make the stories sound real unlike stories in the newspaper where she would use her imagination to think of a plot and then gradually work out the content of the details by researching information.

King Chat’s narrative styles create a fun and realistic story based on realistic situations that she comes across. She leads readers to a world that has a variety of characters full of loneliness, sadness, happiness, love, and sometimes even frighten situations that makes the readers can not help but smile in tears. What makes her novels indispensable in all aspects is the idea that she leaves the story as a thoughtful reflection to the readers.
