My main problem with fiction is that once my characters get moving, you just have to follow them along and get out of the way of the story, but sometimes they pull me in too many directions, and I need to focus.

I read the three 'Hunger Games' books in a week and because I liked them so much I wrote 'Just a Game.'

To be joining 'The Hunger Games' family is such a thrill. It deserves the hype because it's well written, handles really big subject matter, but doesn't talk down to its audience. And then there's the romance element.

I've just had the opportunity to see the finished film of 'The Hunger Games.' I'm really happy with how it turned out. I feel like the book and the film are individual yet complementary pieces that enhance one another.

Only occasionally do I read new fiction. Most of my reading is heavily dictated by what I'm writing at the time.

While writing a novel, I don't read anything new in fiction. I am too engrossed.

It's 'The Hunger Games.' My character needs to look hungry. A little bit.

This is mainly because I spend a lot of time writing and so don't have much time to read; I hate to waste that time reading what may turn out to be junk food for the mind, when there's so much real writing to be read.

No, I have to really focus, especially when I'm writing because I wanna be good at it.
