I did a report on Suzanne Collins for school

[Jasik]

I wrote about all of the stuff that she used for inspiration. We had nearly a month and we had to make something as a second half to the project. I recreated Katniss's bow that she uses in the Hunger Games.

Ask me anything.

Wow. That sounds like so much fun. I wish our teacher let us do things like that. I have to do projects on shakespeare, ugh. *puts on pretend scale* Shakespeare, Susan Collins which do you think rates higher.

[Jasik]

I haven't read much Shakespeare but I think Suzanne Collins works wonders, so I can't really make a good comparison. We have to do a research paper every year ever since last year in 6th grade. The subject last year was events in the 20th century and their effects. I did mine on the Ku Klux Klan. God, that was boring, and I couldn't really find anything that wasn't common knowledge. This year I have a really good English teacher who at least tries to make things fun. It was a lot of work but really interesting. I didn't think there could be so much inspiration from her daily life that she used in a book about killing XD

Jasik, please don't double post. Just edit your previous post.

Shakespeare did, to be fair, do a lot for the world of literature. Some of it was even good (Hamlet! ). But Collins wins any day. Her stuff is just so much more interesting to read. Besides, she came up with Twitchtip and Ripred, which would automatically put her way above Shakespeare even if all her other ideas completely sucked.

[Jasik]

Yeah I read the Gregor series but it was a while back so I don't remember much, but Ripred and Twitchtip sound familiar.

UPDATE: I just got my paper back, my bow and arrow got a 50 out of 50 and the overall grade was a 92. I feel pretty good about it.
