@AshMitchum HaHa! Well keep up the great work then.

AshMitchum

hiya! thanks for the reads and the comments. I'm wondering what made you think ETTA was the hunger games all over again (you're not the first person to say it so maybe I can play with the pitch or something to make sure people don't find it too similar)

hahaha oh I didn't mean I'd change her gender, I just think people compare less with boys than they do with girls! I can't write about guys, pssht.

@AshMitchum I think you're right about that but I would still keep Etta as she is. If she was a guy, it wouldn't be the same. You would also have to make Matilda a boy if you want to keep the storyline the same but then there will be no female main characters.
            
            Oh, and I just realised "families" was a typo. I meant to say "familiar" :P

Can't say that bit about families did make sense, but okay =P 
            
            I think what does it for a lot of people is the word 'Harena' (actual latin word for a gladiator ring) and the bow. I think though, that had Etta been a boy, no one would be comparing her to THG or Robin Hood or Hawkeye.
