Like Wozz said, my agent, Ally Malet, is currently (unless I've missed one) the only agent from the HG continuum. She doesn't work in the fandom, but eventually I might write a HG fic with my other agents.
Honestly, I've really gone off the series. I was interested in the movie when I first heard about it, but now I don't really care.
Just curious, do any agents work in the Hunger Games fandom? There aren't that many Sues lurking around there, but some of the writing is fairly disturbing nonetheless.
On a happier note, is anyone excited for the Hunger Games movie? I've always been a big fan of the books, so I hope that the movie doesn't bend the plot all out of shape.
HUNGER GAMES MOVIE!!
*jumps up and down for a few minutes*
Sorry, suger rush.
Squee!
*Sighs*
Looks like another fanfic explosion...

ugh, Hunger Games movie. I've already begun stocking up my Fanfic Explosion bunker with sugary snacks and emergency Pratchett rations. Plus, I was always creeped out by all the overglamourized stuff and the mutts, so I probably won't go see it, though I will be ready to help deal with the badfic when it shows up.
Right now, we have ONE hunger games badfic unclaimed. It's a crossover with Codex Alera, featuring a really blatant Gary Stu replacement of a canon, who pretty much waltzes through the Games. Also, it's never explained HOW a bunch of characters from an far-away planet with a society based on ancient Rome ended up in future-dystopia Earth.
A Codex Alera crossover? What in the... how does that even work.
Excuse me while I go. Look at that. And see if I can manage.
Though I could totally see where the writing would get disturbing...the canon itself is disturbing at times.
Ask Astral Void about her one of these days: she's a pretty crazy agent, trust me.
And yeah, I've been trying to find some Hunger Games badfic for a mission sometime. The problem is, though, that I still have to read the last third of Mockingjay before I feel qualified to tackle anything from that continuum, so if you have some badfic from there, that would be nice to see.
Yeah, I'm pretty excited for the Hunger Games movie. It looks well-cast, for one thing (I mean, c'mon, Jennifer Lawrence basically already played the prototype for Katniss Everdeen in Winter's Bone, so she's perfect for the part), and from what little I've been able to see from the trailers I think they've got most of the overglamourized stuff down pat. We'll see, but I'm not expecting it to be terrible.
