Links Galore

Lots of great links to get us through Tuesday:

I love wild opening lines.

Being a strong YA heroine doesn’t just mean kicking ass and taking names; a great reminder that there are lots of ways to be strong.
I have very deep feelings about the comma.
Tin House on how to not be sexist in the literary world.
Congratulations to Natalie Babbitt and her win of the American Academy of Arts and Letters’ Inaugural E. B. White Award!
I wish I were young and tortured enough to apply for the Tortured Artist Grant.
The Hunger Games was still a hot seller in 2012. Guessing that’ll continue when the Catching Fire movie is released this year.
Remember how awesome the Tortall book are? Relive all that goodness on Mark Reads. (H/T Elizabeth Brenner)
