Terricinia St. Clair. I met this spirited beauty through a mutual friend. Writers tend to run in packs, and this was no different. I had been getting an invite from a new literary sister, to visit Richmond and attend one of her author meet and greets. It seemed fate was against that ever happening. Her invites were random and it rained every single time she held an event. Not only did it rain, it only rained at the time I would be leaving to reach the destination. I don 't enjoy travelling in inclement weather, so I rain-checked the first two instances. Invite number three was different.

Scout, in the beginning, dramatizes her life occurrences while being naive towards realistic issues such as racism. From the near beginning, page 16, “Jem gave a reasonable description of Boo: Boo was about six-and-a-half feet tall, judging from his tracks; he dined on raw squirrels and any cats he could catch, that’s why his hands were bloodstained – if you ate an animal raw, you could never wash the blood off.” As shown in the excerpt, scout believed in childish tall-tales and rumors at the start of the story. She did not notice, or care, how dramatized these rumors were. Another example from pages 20 and 21, “Jem was careful to explain that during school hours I was not to bother him, I was not to approach him with requests to reenact a chapter of Tarzan and the Ant Men, to embarrass him with references to his private life, or tag along behind him at noon.”
