J. Smith Credits Back Ads Copyright About the Publisher Chapter 1 Adam’s car windows were foggy with the heat of their breath. It was a balmy night at dusk, and the air was scented with early signs of spring—a perfect night to roll down the windows and enjoy the breeze while they kissed. But Cassie insisted the windows stay closed, for privacy. Besides, she liked the feeling of being cocooned in such close quarters with Adam, insulated from the outside world by the steamy glass. They were going to be late for their meeting, but inside this cloud, she didn’t care. “We should go in,” she said halfheartedly. “Just five more minutes. It’s not like they can start without you.” Right, Cassie thought, because I’m a leader. All the more reason not to be late because I’m making out with my boyfriend. Boyfriend. The notion still made her giddy, even after all these weeks. She watched the way the setting sun brought out the multicolored highlights in Adam’s tangled hair— shades of burgundy and orange—and the crystalline sparkle in his blue eyes.

  • The Secret Circle
    SECRET CIRCLE Pilot Written by Andrew Miller Draft Date: February 3rd, 2011 SECRET CIRCLE TEASER EXT. ROAD - NIGHT A long winding street somewhere in small town, USA. The road is empty when a car FLIES by. Florida plates. INT. CAR - NIGHT Behind the wheel is CASSIE BLAKE, 16, having a private moment with the STEREO. Singing her heart out. Something she’d never do around anyone else. But alone -- she’s a rock star. An extremely off-key rock star. Ridiculously cute. CLOSE ON HER FACE. A scrubbed clean natural beauty. She has that loner stare. All question and doubt. She’s startled by a HONKING HORN. Headlights blind. As a car WHIZZES by, passing her. She road rages. CASSIE C’mon. Really? Asshole. But then -- her front wheel EXPLODES. A blowout. The car jerks and skids, careening off the road. Cassie responds instantly. She lets off the gas, turns into the skid, and the car jerks and grinds to a stop. EXT. SIDE OF THE ROAD - NIGHT Cassie gets out, looks to her front tire. It’s flat. Cassie groans in frustration. Looks around. Lots of trees. Houses in the distance. Not a lot of options. But then-- She sees a car IDLING half a block up the road. The same one that passed her. It just sits there. As if watching. She can’t make out who’s behind the wheel. She calls out. CASSIE Hey... Can I get a...? The car quickly speeds away. Fuck you very much. Cassie goes back to her car, reaches in for her cell phone.

  • “Loving and Cruel, All at the Same Time” Girlhood Identity in the Craft
    “Loving and Cruel, All at the Same Time” Girlhood Identity in The Craft Emily Chandler a ABSTRACT The teen horror film The Craft (1996) has remained a cult classic with girl audi- ences for two decades. Scholarship about the film has focused on its negative rep- resentation of girls’ friendships, sexuality, and desire for power. In this article, I honor the significance of girl culture by accounting for The Craft’s appeal to girl audiences. I argue that The Craft’s relevance to girls arises from its subversion of teen film tropes. The Craft explores adolescent girls’ fear of isolation by depicting a mentally ill teenager who draws strength and happiness from the company of her friends, and becomes depressed when they oust her. By flouting the imperative for adolescent girl protagonists to be white, middle-class, mentally healthy, and normatively bodied, The Craft portrays girls’ desire for understanding over the pursuit of so-called popularity, girls’ anger arising from marginalization, and girls’ exploiting of friendship as a weapon. KEYWORDS aggression, friendship, horror, niceness, teen film b Introduction In Andrew Fleming’s teen horror film The Craft (1996), a middle-aged bus driver drops four teenage girls in the middle of nowhere, warning them to “watch out for those weirdos.” Unbeknown to him, these girls are witches, poised to realize their powers. Their ringleader retorts, “We are the weirdos, mister,” giving the driver an unsettling grin as the doors of the bus close. At the opening of the film, Nancy (Fairuza Balk), Rochelle (Rachel True) and Bonnie (Neve Campbell), misfit girls at a Catholic high school in Los Angeles, are experimenting unsuccessfully with witchcraft derived from Manon, a nature deity.

The Vampire Diaries exists primarily as a book series and a television series, produced by Alloy Entertainment and The CW Network respectively. Alloy’s production of the franchise, and others like it, connects to the company’s history of feminized media production as a book packager, and is indicative of its current transmedia consumerist model.

  • The Reign Continues YA Queen Stephenie Meyer Holds on to Top Spots by Diane Roback Mar 22, 2010
    The Reign Continues YA queen Stephenie Meyer holds on to top spots by Diane Roback Mar 22, 2010 The Stephenie Meyer juggernaut continues. Though the queen of the vampire novel didn't release any new books in 2009, demand was still enormous, fueled by the New Moon film and the DVD release of 2008's Twilight. Combining the various hardcover, paperback, and movie tie-in editions, Meyer sold just under 26.5 million copies of her Twilight saga in 2009. That's a remarkably similar figure to last year's (27.5 million). Add in 912,000 copies sold of her adult novel, The Host, and it looks like Meyer, and Little, Brown, had another very good year. So did Jeff Kinney, chronicler of all things Wimpy. His two new additions to the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series sold 5.7 million, and his three backlist titles (including a do-it-yourself journal) sold another 3.8 million, for a total of 9.5 million copies. These days it's all about series, in the numbers game. The many paranormal series continue their reign on bestseller lists, including PC and Kristin Cast's House of Night books (nearly 5.4 million copies sold, in various editions), Alyson Noël's Immortals series (1.6 million), L.J. Smith's The Vampire Diaries (1.6 million) and Night World (1.3 million), and Vampire Academy by Richelle Mead (1.2 million). In other series news, Rick Riordan's Percy Jackson books are still huge, with 3.3 million copies sold, James Patterson sold 3.2 million copies of his various lines for kids, and the multi-authored 39 Clues series sold 1.7 million copies.

The interdisciplinary study of public memory has, in fact, occupied scholars in rhetoric for the past quarter century. By focusing on the public and social qualities of most memorial practices, contemporary rhetoricians have emphasized the contingent nature of the past, drawn attention to the judgments made to select and sustain memories, and explored the persuasive power of leveraging past

Chan-Brose iii DEDICATION For my daughter, Evelyn Chan, because I didn’t make it this far despite you, but because of you. You make me proud to be your mommy every day and you’ve made every effort worth it. For Baby Brose, who joined us at the end of this journey—We can’t wait to meet you. And for my great grandma, Maria, my grandma, Memo, and my mother, Jennifer, for giving me this story. For every woman who raised me. Every mother who needs to be told that she matters. And every woman cultivating her own identity. And to every single, working, mother in college, as evidence that it can be done, it has been done, and you are capable of doing it. iv ACKNOWLEDGEMENT I would like to first thank my thesis advisor Dr. Marilee Brooks-Gillies for her patience and persistence.
