I was my parent's first child, Joanna Catherine Going, named for my great-great grandmother Catherine, and my father's maternal aunt Johanna Burke, and bearing the initials of my father's father, John Christopher, who passed away just months before I was born.

Like so many others, I came to romance during the golden age of it - Judith McNaught, Julie Garwood, Johanna Lindsey and Jude Deveraux were at the height of their historical domination. Without those women, I wouldn't be a romance novelist.

Johanna Mason: You guys look amazing.
Katniss Everdeen: Thank you.
Johanna Mason: My stylist is such an idiot. District 7, lumber. Trees. Ugh. I'd love to put my axe on her face. So what do you think, now that the whole world wants to sleep with you?
Katniss Everdeen: [scoffs] I don't think that the whole

world...
Johanna Mason: I wasn't talking to you.
Katniss Everdeen: Okay.
Johanna Mason: [to Peeta] Will you unzip?
Peeta Mellark: Yeah.
[Peeta unzips her dress, Katniss glares at Peeta, Johanna disrobes completely then stares them down boldly, making for an awkward pause till the elevator stops

at Johanna's floor]
Johanna Mason: [exiting] Thanks. Let's do it again sometime.
Haymitch Abernathy: Thank YOU. Johanna Mason, District 7.

Haymitch Abernathy: Good news. At least half the tributes want you as an ally.
Peeta Mellark: Well, they saw her shoot.
Haymitch Abernathy: Hm. Well, sweetheart, you got your pick of the litter.
Katniss Everdeen: I want Wiress and Beetee.
Peeta Mellark: Johanna calls them Nuts and

Volts.
Haymitch Abernathy: Well, okay, good. Now, who else?
Katniss Everdeen: Mags.
[Peeta turns away while rolling his eyes, clearly frustrated]
Katniss Everdeen: All right, fine, then no one.
Haymitch Abernathy: I'll tell them you're still making up your mind.

The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1

Katniss Everdeen: I've decided I will be your Mockingjay, but I have... some conditions. Peeta and the other tributes, Johanna Mason and Annie Cresta, will be rescued at the earliest opportunity. If and when Peeta is liberated, he will receive a full and unconditional pardon, no punishment will be inflicted. And the same goes for the other tributes.
President Alma

Coin: [nods, considers the demand, but:] No.
Katniss Everdeen: It's not their fault. You be them in the arena. They're doing and saying whatever they can to survive.
President Alma Coin: Individuals don't make demands in 13. There will be a tribunal, and a fair judgment.
[coldly:]
President Alma Coin: Thank

you.
Katniss Everdeen: [adamant] The victors will be granted immunity, and you will announce that in front of the entire population of 13. You will hold yourself and your government responsible, or you will find another Mockingjay.
Plutarch Heavensbee: [pleased] That's it! That's her! Right there! Isn't that what I promised you? Now if she wears the

costume, gunfire in the background, a hint of smoke... Our Mockingjay. Madam President, we're losing ground because people are losing heart, this is worth the risk, she's worth the risk. Pardons, tribunals, power to the people, that can all be the bedrock for the new Panem, but with more time I think even the normal sub-causes can be bent a little bit, right?
President Alma

Coin: [swayed] Do you have any other conditions?
Katniss Everdeen: [consults her note] My sister gets to keep her cat.

Johanna: [after Turpin discovers her packing] Sir, a gentleman knocks before entering a lady's room.
Judge Turpin: Indeed, he does, but I see no lady. I told myself the sailor was lying, that my Johanna would never betray me, never hurt me so.
Johanna: Sir, I will leave this place.
Judge Turpin: I think that's

only appropriate since you no longer find my company to your liking.
[the Beadle appears at the door]
Judge Turpin: We shall provide you with new lodgings. Until this moment I have spared the rod. But the ungrateful child has broken my heart. When you've learned to appreciate what you have done, perhaps we shall meet again. Until then, think on your sins.
[the

Beadle takes Johanna away by force]

Anthony Hope: [comes rushing in looking for Sweeney only to see Mrs.Lovett] Oh, I'm sorry. Excuse me...
Mrs. Lovett: Mrs.Lovett, son.
Anthony Hope: A pleasure, ma'am.
[he finally see's Sweeney]
Anthony Hope: [really quickly] Mr.Todd, there's a girl who needs my help. Such a sad

girl, and lonely but beautiful to and...
Sweeney Todd: [he leads Antony to a chair] Slow down, son.
Anthony Hope: [sits down] Yes, I'm sorry. This girl has a guardian who keeps her locked away, but then this morning she dropped this
[holds up a key]
Anthony Hope: surely a sign that Johanna wants me to help her. That's

her name, Johanna, and Turpin is her guardian. He's a judge of some sort. Once he goes to court, I'm going to skip into the house, release her, and beg her to come away with me tonight!
Mrs. Lovett: Oh, this is very romantic.
Anthony Hope: [he turns to Mrs.Lovett] Yes.
[he turns back to Todd]
Anthony Hope: But I don't

know anyone in London, you see, and I need somewhere safe to bring her until I've hired a coach to take us away. If I could keep her just for an hour or two, I'd be forever in your debt.
Mrs. Lovett: Bring her 'ere, love.
Anthony Hope: [to Mrs.Lovett] Thank you, ma'am.
Anthony Hope: [to Todd]
Anthony

Hope: Mr.Todd...?
Sweeney Todd: [Sweeney can only nod in agreement]

Four: I know you think Caleb is your responsibility, but he made his own choice. You can't protect everyone.
Tris: I can't protect anyone.
Four: Nobody can. Him leaving isn't your fault. None of this is your fault. Johanna was right. You have to forgive yourself.
Tris: Thank you.
