While I'm waiting, I figured I'd push the story back to the front of the list to get more attention by adding this piece to explain how the story will be set up. Every new chapter will either start right off or have a little forward in bold from me. If the story just begins without any clarification of who is narrating, it's probably just a description of a television program or an interview with Caesar, capitol coverage, etc. I like to throw in point of views from the Capitol audience so you can see it through their eyes. Otherwise, it will clarify whose point of view it is in bold and which district they are from, that way there's little confusion as to who is speaking.
The story will start with the reapings. They'll be pretty short, just giving a little back story to each of the characters and having a quick coverage segment with Caesar or Claudius, and then we'll move on to the Capitol. The purpose of the reapings is basically just for chartacter development and back story.
Then I'll be writing one long chapter about the Opening Ceremonies with lots of fun coverage from Caesar (can you tell I like him) etc. Then two chapters of training. The training scores will be from a Capitol's perspective. So you will not know what each character does in their private sessions, jus their score. That way the Games are a little more exciting and will bring more surprises. Plus it's a little repetitive to write 24 dfferent segments about people hitting dummies with swords. Same goes for the Interviews, each segment will be short. Not every tribute's Interview will be included, because some may not be relevant to the story or necessary. But again, most of them will be included at least a little bit, if not their full interview.
Then after that, the Games will begin. There may be a couple random chapters with Linus Carrow here and there about the arena, I'm not entirely sure yet. We'll just see where this goes! At the end of each chapter in the arena, there will be a full tribute list to update you on who is alive (bold) and who is deceased (italicized, with information on when and how they died).
Can't wait to start! This chapter will be deleted once I actually start the story.
