Speaking of inspiration when wirting the Hunger Games , Suzzane was channel surfing when she suddenly stopped to watch youths competing for who knows what . That's when she thought of the story for Katniss . Also she based the story on the Greek myth of Theseus and the Minotaur . The city of Athens had to send 14 young people to die at the hands of the horrible Minotaur. Katniss is like a futuristic Theseus because katniss takes her sister's place in the games , like theseus who volunteers to go fight the Minotaur.
