I don't think we know if Caleb is Divergent, and for some reason I don't think Tris's father was, although I don't think it was explicitly stated.
Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Abnegation would just be too much of a pain to spell on a regular basis.

Hey - question for writerly types. DH is trying to get his publisher to change the title of his book slightly, but they've already put it in their catalog for librarians/bookstores to order, and it has a pre-order page on Amazon. How set in stone is a title once that's all in play?

Because books.
Pretty set, unfortunately. It would also depend on the cover -- if anything's been printed, he's probably out of luck. That includes the sales catalog for that season, too.

Nothing's been printed, the graphics dept just came up with a first draft cover yesterday. The book doesn't come out until next February!

Oh, then it should be fine!

Awesome! Assuming the publisher is willing to change it, of course.

They've got their eggs in some baskets pretty early, there.

That's great that Ethan has a book coming out!
