Toss Up Tuesday! Fanfiction
I have two fanfiction stories to suggest today!
District 12 by LostinBelieving
What happens when you take two authors (One Team Peeta and One Team Gale) and write a story on what happens after Katniss returns to her District? What will the Capitol do? Who does she love? Gale? Peeta? Both?
Hunger Games- Book three by mHardy
Fanmade version of the 3rd installment of the Hunger Games.
(Well written for it’s first chapter! The writer seems to capture Collins voice nicely!)

How Could a Charater’s Name Spell Out Their Fate?
Rue: to feel regret, remorse, or sorrow. To affect with grief, to repent.
Haymitch has absolutely no definition, meaning or history whatsoever. The name is comepletely made up by Suzanne Collins. However, Haymitch’s last name, Abernathy, is the name of a famous Civil Rights Leader.
Cinna was a poet in one of Shakespeare’s plays who tried to start a rebellion. He conspirated against the leader Julius Caesar and was thus killed… does this give us any hints?

Toss Up Tuesday! Holiday Season!
For this Toss Up I wanted to mostly wish everyone a happy and safe Holiday Season! Also to implore any readers to find a way to help others in one way or another. I have listed a few great sites which help you to help others. Even if you can’t financially help others, even a simple act of kindness is worth just as much. Opening a door, letting an older couple ahead of you in a line, or even just saying how much you appreciate your family and friends; sets the basis for a more evolved society. So, see what happens! People can still surprise you.
International Fund for Animal Welfare
Of course I had to ask just one little question of you all!
How do you think Katniss and the rest of her family would be celebrating the holidays? What would Gale or Peeta have gotten Katniss? Or Katniss for them? Do you think Haymitch would celebrate with them?
