4. New Segment: Author Spotlight -Angie- Claudia Gray

Claudia Gray is the author of the week. She is best know for her Evernight series which includes, Evernight, of course, Stargazer, Hourglass, and coming in March of 2011, Afterlife. Claudia Gray is not her real name. She didn't choose a pseudonym because her real name is unpleasant (it isn't), because she'd always dreamed of calling herself this (she hasn't) or even because she is hiding from the remnants of that international diamond-smuggling cartel she smashed in 2003 (Interpol has taken care of them). In short, she took a pseudonym for no real reason whatsoever. She says sometimes this is actually the best reason to do things. Her real name is Amy Vincent.

She lives in New York City. So far, in life, she has been a disc jockey, a lawyer, a journalist and an extremely bad waitress, just to name a few. She especially likes to spend time traveling, hiking, reading and listening to music. More than anything else, she enjoys writing.
Her lifelong interests in old houses, classic movies, vintage style, and history all played a part in creating the world of Evernight. STOP TO SAVE!

But now, let's look toward the future -- specifically, future tour dates. "Whenever I make a post about touring, people want to know why I'm coming to one place and not another. I think the image is of me lounging around in a gold-sequined caftan, receiving a shoulder massage from the French cabana boy and stroking my pet ocelot with the jeweled collar, and going, "AHAHAHAHAHAA, I despise Ohio, so I shall not tour there! I spit on Ohio! Work the lower back, Jean-Claude." Except for the ocelot, this picture has nothing to do with reality. Basically, I mostly go where the publishers think it would be good for me to go, and I trust their judgment. I am setting up a few dates on my own, too, but right now, the publisher-chosen places alone keep me pretty busy -- as you are about to see"


Then, just to prove that I do not spit on Ohio:

STOP TO SAVE!

Jessica- Chapter 15
: The prep team is sad because she is going back, not only because they'll be losing her, but because they'll be losing their tickets to a lot of main events.
:Cinna of course, does a wonderful job on Katniss's outfit for the opening ceremonies. I thought to myself, how will he pull off another jawdropping theme, but this time he makes her look like burning coal. "Katniss, the girl on fire, has left behind her flickering flames and bejeweled gowns and soft candlelight flocks. She is as deadly as fire itself." pg 207 Did this send a message to the Capitol? To the Districts?
:Duhduhduhdun! Finnick makes his first appearance. We all know Alex is happy. I thought it was funny that his first line, besides hello, is "want a sugar cube?" Then it discusses how district four is the fishing district and the first time Finnick Yes I am because I love me some Finnick Alex is having a bromance with Finnick! LOL showed the world his skills with a trident.
:Pg 209 16 is the legal age in the Capitol.
STOP TO SAVE!
:Enter Peeta, of course he says something that makes you go AWWW! pg 211
:"No more. We are star-crossed lovers from District 12, who suffered so much and enjoyed so little the rewards of our victory, do not seek the fans favor, grace them with our smiles or catch their kisses. We are unforgiving." Pg 212
:You are introduced to a girl named Johanna, who is a known killing machine, she gets naked in the elevator to their floor because she hated her costume. Peeta is grinning when johanna gets on her floor, and Katniss of course gets a little angry. Peeta tells her everyone is picking on her because she is pure.
:They step off the elevator only to run into Effie and Haymitch, who is looking sick and angry. Effie tells them they have a matched set of Avoxs'. There is the girl from the original Hunger Games she was in, and finally, the man who helped her save Gale. Darius is her new Avox.

STOP TO SAVE!

Angie - Chapter 16 Me thinks Angie is becoming the PAUSE Queen? Chapter name: Making friends
What do u think the Gamemakers were trying to say to Katniss and Peeta with Darius being their Avox? PAUSE HERE FOR RESPONSES
They watch the Opening ceremonies and Katniss talks about how pitiful the aging victors are. Most look grotesque in their costumes. And of course the crowd goes wild when they see Peta and her. They are the image of what tributes should be, (not Grandparents) As soon as the ceremonies premiere r over Katniss ges to bed. Someone knocks on her door, but she ignores it. In the morning Katniss doesn't want to go down to breakfast. She orders food and eats in her room waiting til time to go to the training center. Haymitch pounds on her door demanding she get down to the dinning room NOW. When she makes it down he tells the her she has two jobs; First her and Peeta stay in love, second is to make some friends. She doesn't want to, doesn't trust them. STOP TO SAVE!He explains that her and Peeta r at a disadvantage this time going in. Their competitors know each other and have for years. So obviously they would target them first. (wonder what the gamemakers would give the person who took out Katniss) Katniss asks Haymitch, "You want us in the Career pack" He tells her that has been their strategy, but she doesn't want the "Careers" and he tells her everyone is a VICTOR in these games, they can make their own pack. Find someone who might be of some use to them. Do u think Haymitch is working them toward an uprising? Does he know more the he has let on about it? PAUSE HERE FORE RESPONSESTOP TO SAVE!
So they go to the Training Center Katniss talks with the District 3 tributes, Wiress and Beetee. Hinting around about the uprising to see if she can find out anything. Wiress points out the force field between them and the gamemakers wondering what brought it on. Katniss explains that it was prob her, refering to when she shot the arrow through the apple last year.
They go to lunch and Katniss tells Peeta she likes the District 3 victors. He says they r something of a joke to the others...Nuts and Volts.......Katniss tells Peeta she wants them as allies. Peeta says he is leaning toward Chaff and Seeder. Katniss says she is okay with Seeder, but not Chaff yet. Katniss tries to be more sociable and talks with some of the other victors. When Katniss realizes Mags volunteered for the same reason she did she decides she wants her on her side. STOP TO SAVE!
Katniss goes to the archery station...................at dinner Haymitch tells them all the victors mentors r telling them to request her as an ally. Over the next few days she spends more time getting to know them and the more she gets to know them the worse it is for her. She doesn't hate them, but in order for Peeta to stay alive, they have to die. PAUSE HERE FOR COMMENTSSTOP TO SAVE!
Final day with private sessions comes and neither of them knows what they r going to do...............Peeta goes first and its 40 min before they call Katniss in. She smells cleaner and wonders what Peeta did........worried...........Heavensbee seems to be ignoring her intentionally and this makes her angry and then the idea comes to her. She makes a noose, drags a dummy to the middle of the room, puts the noose around its neck, she bloodred berry juice and writes on the dummy's skin....steps away to watch the gamemakers faces as they read what she wrote..............Seneca Crane....da da daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! What do u think was going thru their minds? PAUSE HERE FOR RESPONSES
