The first draft of Extras, the fourth book in the Uglies series, is done.
It came in at 86,771 words. That’s almost exactly the same as Uglies.
Now Justine and I head to Texas for the TLA Conference, plus an appearance in Austin!

One more question for you all: Aya-la or Aya-wa?
April 10th, 2007 12:02
wow the first comint how cool.. i should get some kind of prize lol, jk!! and i like Aya-wa!! and The last days finally came in!!! yeppe
April 10th, 2007 12:04
comments**
and way to go scott!!! is Extras as good as the other ones?? well i hope so!!!!!!!!!
April 10th, 2007 12:09
sweet thats somthing to look forward to in my crapy school week yhis week.
i like Aya-wa more too, it flows better
April 10th, 2007 12:12
Aya-wa. I like the way it sounds better.
Oh, and CONGRATULATIONS!!!! Will you kill me if I ask you to sign a few books in Austin?
April 10th, 2007 12:16
w00t! Hope you danced around like a fool to celebrate. Or did something. I like Aya-wa. Aya-la sounds… strange. I don’t know. Super!
April 10th, 2007 12:31
I was about to say Aya-la. But it does sound kinda weird if you say it out loud. Aya-wa is better. Definitely. YAY for being done! We’re that much closer to getting to read it!!!!!
April 10th, 2007 12:33
I agree with everybody else that has posted so far:Aya-wa. Sounds cooler.
It is uber-excellent that Extras is Uglies-level long. I need something to drown out my school-induced misery. And this is really random and off-topic, but I love Melissa’s opinions on TV in Touching Darkness. When you think about it, a whole country watching the same show and laughing at the same jokes all at once is really weird.
April 10th, 2007 12:35
aya-la is too much like Ayla in the clan of the cave bear books. and you do not want to go there.
also ‘wa’ is an important concept in Japanese philosophy. something about harmony.
AND it’s a particle, as in Nihongo wa omoshiroi desu.
(and YAYYYY that it’s finished! that koala can finally have a tea-break)
April 10th, 2007 12:35
aya-la
definatly. it is a hard name to match though
April 10th, 2007 12:36
I like Aya-la. I think it sounds nice, plus Aya-wa makes me think of the state in the Midwest!
April 10th, 2007 12:38
i changed my mind. wa does sound better out loud
April 10th, 2007 12:39
oh yeah r u sgning books at aperances
April 10th, 2007 12:40
Aya-wa. definately.
April 10th, 2007 12:41
i cant believe the uglies trilogy turned into a series. totally happy-making (lol)
April 10th, 2007 12:52
YAY!!!!! Extras first draft is done!!! this just makes me want to read it more and more!!!
Oh yea…Aya-wa sounds much better than Aya-la.i agree wit the people!
April 10th, 2007 12:53
I like the sound of aya-wa better
April 10th, 2007 12:54
Now its a series???? omg this is big news.so exciting….making!
April 10th, 2007 12:55
Aya-la, of course.
Or Mabye, Aya-wa.
Mabye a new one, Aya-la-ti-do?
April 10th, 2007 12:56
i know. i read it somewhere on the website. hopefully it will be a -longer-than-4-book-series
April 10th, 2007 12:57
i think there should be a new one
but not that new one
April 10th, 2007 12:58
aya-sa
aya-da
????
April 10th, 2007 13:02
Aya-chan
:]
April 10th, 2007 13:08
i like it. it goes with the asian thing
April 10th, 2007 13:09
also good job on the joke cover katerate your a relly good artist
April 10th, 2007 13:15
Ha, someone got to the “Aya-wa-Iowa” joke before I did!
I’m sure I know this only because I’m a total soccer nerd, but Ayala is the name of Argentina’s first-choice goalkeeper, and when I read that I thought of his thirty-something-year-old face… But I’m probably the only one who does that. Either works for me, but Aya-Chan made me smile. =)
April 10th, 2007 13:30
Aya-wa
April 10th, 2007 13:30
I, personally, Aya-Wa sounds more… Cute. More roll-of-the-tongue-able. Aya-La sounds slightly awkward in my mouth. But then again, I’m probably saying it wrong.
April 10th, 2007 13:36
i really like aya-wa better, even if it does sound like i am sayong iowa(if i am pronouncing the name correctly) i really can’t wait for the new book!!!!
April 10th, 2007 13:51
Aya-wa is definitely better-sounding. It’s kind of ironic because I believe that in Pretties and Specials only Tally’s name used the “wa” ending…am I right?
It’s cool though. I’m so excited that Extras is coming out so soon!! I didn’t think that books could be published that quickly, but it sure is a plus…
April 10th, 2007 15:28
Aya-wa sounds too much like a place to grow corn.
April 10th, 2007 16:17
Yeah, I was just thinking that. Aya-wa like Iowa? Personally I like Aya-la. Just the way it’s pronounced (at least the way it seems to be to me) is prettier.
April 10th, 2007 18:00
Aya-wa is a state. My niece’s name is Ayelet, which is a lot like Aya-la, so it’s no contest.
Congrats on finishing!
April 10th, 2007 19:28
ummm, well, in french, if you said cette Aya-la (with a grave acent on the last ‘a’) that would mean, ‘that Aya person here’. but la does sound better. Maybe she should have her own suffix, coz maybe she’s different from other people, coz she’s the one having a book written about her. And only the over-sixteens used wa and la (well Tally and Shay didnt when they were ugly) and if she’s supposed to only be 15 (i think you said that somewhere, Scott) then i don’t think she should have anything at the end of her name. also this whole -la and -wa sound a bit like ‘igpay atinlay’ (pig latin) and is there a difference between la and wa?
okay, ramblings aside, i think Aya-la sounds best. but, if you want another suffix just for her, something like Aya-sa or Aya-kha would work too…
sorry for the long post.
April 10th, 2007 19:36
but, if you’ve already finished the draft, why do you need to figure out -la or -wa???
April 10th, 2007 22:29
I totally hate you. I was JUST in Austin.
Oh well.
Aya-la!!! There’s no l in it so there can’t be a wa! (Isn’t that the rule???)
April 10th, 2007 22:34
hehehe… I just thought of something. “Aya-la!” is like an exclamation in Malaysia, (think “oh crap!”)except emphasis is placed on the second syllable.
April 11th, 2007 00:44
Aya-wa sounds better but you should do aya-la just for the hell of it!
Does the fact your doing another book mean youre going to do another trilogy or is it just a series now?
Either way XD
April 11th, 2007 01:18
r ther the same characters even if the main character changes????? if not im gonna be really sad
April 11th, 2007 01:42
i think that Aya-wa sounds better when your saying it… but Aya-la looks better on paper!! i think that Aya needs her own one??!!
xoxo Alexa-la
ps. i hope you had a good easter and all scott!!!
April 11th, 2007 02:09
Maybe since Extras is in Japan there should be a new suffix. Things would probably be different there.
April 11th, 2007 02:42
Aya-la defintly. Way to go on the first draft! Can’t wait to get my hands on the actual copy.
April 11th, 2007 04:12
I like Aya-la; Aya-wa sounds like Iowa.
I’m so excited to read it!!!!
April 11th, 2007 04:41
Aya-la
April 11th, 2007 04:49
I like Aya-wa Scott It roles on the tounge and when is your appearence in austin cause I live 5 hrs away and could get there to see you!!!!
April 11th, 2007 04:50
Lili you have read clan of the cave bears well that is one of my favorite movie do you know where i can find all of the books cause i do wanna read them!
April 11th, 2007 04:51
Scott if I get to see you in Austin can you singe one of my books to?
Question? are yall talking about Austin Texas?
April 11th, 2007 05:46
AYA-WA! Not only does it sound better, but it sooo goes with the -la’s and -wa’s pattern that me and Sam found out that I think the “Aya-la or Aya-wa” question prooves that you friggin’ didn’t notice, Scott! Which makes me feel smart o.o
-Wa and -La pattern:
-wa’s are even syllables
-la’s are odd syllables
example: Tally-wa, Shay-la, Zane-la
And so on . . .
Although there may have been some even-syllabled -la’s that I forgot about, but I really like that pattern and it’s a lot less confusing than what sounds cuter and it helps your creativity when you’re trying to figure out how “Melanie-la” can sound better xD
I was just using my friend’s example. Her nickname is Mella, but I call her Mel-la xD
April 11th, 2007 05:48
Aya-la, for two reasons.
First, like Laine-wa, I was under the impression that the “wa” ending was only used for names that already have an “L” in them.
And also…Iowa. I can’t help it. My eyes see “Aya-wa”, but my brain says “Iowa”.
Hm.
ANDANDAND…
I saw a commercial for HDTV the other day, and this was the catch-line at the end:
“HD makes everything bubblier.”
Bubbly!
~Mary
April 11th, 2007 05:51
Oh, Kaliana, I didn’t see that! Maybe that’s the pattern…hm…
But I kind of think that Scott probably already knows if he’s using -la or -wa or maybe even something else.
Or maybe not.
*shrug*
~Mary
April 11th, 2007 06:42
aya-wa!!
April 11th, 2007 06:51
Aye-wa. Definitely.
April 11th, 2007 06:58
i vote for aya-la, i think it sounds better. i just finished touching darkness like 10 minutes ago, i was sweating if for the last couple chapters. i have the next one coming soon i hope. i love your books so much, but i read them way to fast this one took me one night then i get sad because i can’t continue the story right away i have to wait a couple days, maybe i should slow down so they last longer. anyways i hope the uglies series goes on forever!
April 11th, 2007 07:04
aya-la. not aya-wa, too much like iowa. hope that they (the people who are looking at your first draft) make you rewirte like half of it.
April 11th, 2007 07:15
Aya-la It sounds different ~ different is cool!!! Can’t wait for Extras! I read Uglies, Pretties, and Specials in about two weeks! AWESOME! I’m sooo excited for the next book! I already reserved it on Amazon!
April 11th, 2007 07:28
Hey how is every body doing
April 11th, 2007 07:28
aya-wa
it sound better
plus, in the uglies trilogy, i think tally was the only 1 with wa, which makes it special
April 11th, 2007 07:31
Can anyone tell me when scott is comeing to Austin and if he meens Austin Texas?????
April 11th, 2007 07:34
Scott is it supposed to be a long or short A sound. Like cat or cake? Becuase there is Ayllaaa, with the long a, like from the cave man book, or like aiila, which is how it can sound. So the only reason you guys are sounding like Iowa is becuase you arent using a long A vowel sound. My question is which one are we supposed to use????
April 11th, 2007 07:40
i agree with you sarah.
April 11th, 2007 07:41
so, if aya has a wa/la suffix on her name, does that mean she turns pretty???????
April 11th, 2007 07:42
that is intersting to think about.
April 11th, 2007 07:43
HOw do you pronunce it? because Aya-la and Aya-wa sound different depending on how yuo say Aya…I think I like wa, too! Will you ever do an appearence in Indiana? South Bend, or any place in Nortern Indiana?
April 11th, 2007 07:46
how about you go to chicago (u no u want to)
April 11th, 2007 07:57
why would he be asking us this if you already wrote the book?? maybe he did make a new suffix hmmmmmm idk
April 11th, 2007 07:57
he*
April 11th, 2007 07:58
will you make an appearence in houston anytime soon?????
April 11th, 2007 08:02
Aya-wa, it sounds so much more fluid, i like it much more than Aya-la.
and CONGRATULATIONS on finishing Extras, do you feel at all relieved, or is it just the beginning of the next draft for you?
April 11th, 2007 08:09
I like Aya-la more because, if you say it out loud, it’s harder to go back to the W sound after you say “ya”.. The L sound would be more practical.
From what I got in the series was that -la was added for an easy bubbly nickname and Tally got -wa because she already had the L’s in her name.
April 11th, 2007 08:20
good job scott!!!!!!! my friends were very annoyed today because i would run up and say guess what!!!!!! EXTRAS FIRST DRAFT IS DONE TODAY!!!!!!!!!! i like Aya-wa. i likw wa after two sylable names. except neither really flow with my name. kiersten-wa sounds wierd. but definitly aya-wa
April 11th, 2007 08:27
i like la. also for u people asking about apperances… there is a link on the site that says all his apperences.

April 11th, 2007 09:12
well, mention you could be reading, or you could be doing drugs
works all the time
April 11th, 2007 09:13
Hola, everyone.
Aya-wa is way better. WAY better. Aya-la sounds like something a little kid would say. And it DOES sound like that Ayla person from the Clan of the Cave Bears book (and that isn’t a good thing).
So my vote goes to AYA-WA!!!
-Topaz
P.S. All you Aya-la people loose
April 11th, 2007 09:15
Aya-la sounds prettier to me so i pick that. I’m sooo proud of you for finishing the first draft. Good look with the revisions oh wait i just reminded you that you aren’t done yet didn’t i well i’m sorry but if its any help you’re ALMOST done. But October is sooooo far away but i’m dealing i’ve found a new author to be hooked on mitch albom so you better hurry up. Kidding kidding you could take all the time in the world i’d still by this book i’m hooked.
April 11th, 2007 09:19
OH NO!!!!!!!!!!!! Ayla from Clan of the Cave Bear!!!!! (shudder)
April 11th, 2007 09:28
AGHH! Neither of them sound good! Oh, Scott..
April 11th, 2007 09:30
i have a question for anyone who has read the midnighters trilogy: is it scary…. also are there any other scott westerfeld books that r really good? i’ve only read uglies, pretties and specials… any recomendations?
April 11th, 2007 09:38
aya-wa, definitely
April 11th, 2007 09:39
but how do you pronounce it??
April 11th, 2007 09:44
im so excited i cannot wait until it comes out im re-reading the triology right now because im so ecstatic!!
by the way, aya-wa definately sounds better. congrats too!
April 11th, 2007 09:49
wut other scott westerfled books shuld i read
April 11th, 2007 09:52
how about you make RUSTIES next, it should be about when the rusties’ world (almost) ends
April 11th, 2007 09:52
aya-wa…i just like it and it’s spelled totally different than the state is spelled…and besides i don’t think that anyone in japan has ever heard of iowa anyway! i wish extras would come out sooner, i can’t wait until august!
April 11th, 2007 09:53
anybody know?
April 11th, 2007 09:54
intensegreeneyes-i agree
ive wondered bout the rusties… even togh im living in them
April 11th, 2007 09:59
jamie– you should read Peepes and the last days. And no, the midnighters trilogy isnt scary.
April 11th, 2007 10:02
thnx so much
April 11th, 2007 10:04
Aya-wa.
I can not wait till Extras comes out!!!!!!!!!!!
April 11th, 2007 10:06
huh, mia is my nick name, how cool is that mia-la?:D
April 11th, 2007 10:13
I think Aya-la. Probably because I noticed the ‘l’ thing as well, plus I think it just sounds better.
April 11th, 2007 10:16
Aya-la
Aya-wa sounds like the state. I cannot wait till Extras comes out!!!!!!!!!! You are my fav author by far! Congrats on having so many best sellers!
April 11th, 2007 10:27
CONGATULATIONS!!!!!!!!
aya-la would be best though because Carly is right aya-wa sounds like the state
April 11th, 2007 10:47
after much consideration, i like aya-la better
April 11th, 2007 10:49
yea jamie- i like the midnighters books a way lot… but i also like peeps a lot to!! i wasnt that crazy about so yeasterday tho… and right now im reading the last days and its ok so far… but im only on like page 55, so yea!! teehee but Twilight by stephenie meyer is REALLY and i mean REALLY good and their is a second one called New Moon withch im in the middle of right now and im having truble putting it down to eat my spegeit and leave this post!! lol
April 11th, 2007 10:53
i think that we are pronoucing Aya wrong thats why it sounds like a state!!!
scott… will you post the first chapter of Extras on your blog so we wont die of curiosity??!! and then if we do die of curiosity that will only make it wors cuz then we wont ever know what happens!!! also it would give us something even more to look forward to… but i think that youv already got us hooked!! teehee
April 11th, 2007 10:57
thnx alexa-la! also good idea bout first chapter of extras
April 11th, 2007 11:08
yeah, im pre ordering my copy but itd be icy to see the 1st chapter
April 11th, 2007 11:13
I think Aya-wa sounds a little better, even though it reminds me of Iowa. Aya-la doesn’t really flow.
April 11th, 2007 11:14
Aya-wa, definetly…Aya-la sounds to much like Shay-la, in my opinion…
April 11th, 2007 11:14
Wow! People must be really excited, I come on here and it already has 110 comments! Well, that means I can be 111, which happens to be my favorite number. Woot!
And I can’t tell you how excited I am to hear that Extras is finished! I know it still has to be edited and marketed and all that stuff, but we are one step closer to having it in our hands! Yay!!!
April 11th, 2007 11:17
Aya-wa ’cause Aya-la kinda sounds like one word, but Aya-la sounds cool too!!! I was thinking about scott posting the first chapter here too, even though it would annoy me not to be able to read the rest after I had already started
April 11th, 2007 11:24
I’m so completly exited about extras being finished and I’m happy you made your deadline, but I’m going to explode if i have to wait any longer for it to come out!!!P.S Aya-wa or la will never replace Tally-wa, Shay-la, Zane-la, and ummmmmm… David-wa or la ?
April 11th, 2007 11:39
if i can read the whole 1st draft ill make a blood oath not to tell ANYONE
April 11th, 2007 12:00
this is very random, but i liked that part in specials when tally hears the ping and calls it ping-la.
i’m a goof, and i don’t care.
April 11th, 2007 12:01
we got the first chapter of the next book after uglies and pretties, now we should get it affter specials
April 11th, 2007 12:11
i agree with jamie and i keep my blood oath promise.
April 11th, 2007 12:12
I think that Aya-la is better, because Aya-wa sounds like “Iowa”
April 11th, 2007 12:16
i didnt notice the iowa thing until Serena brought it up
April 11th, 2007 12:18
Judy in comment #46 asked if Scott could “singe” her book (u know, burn) but I think she meant “sign”, no offense, Judy
April 11th, 2007 12:42
Congrats Scott! Can’t wait!
I like Aya-wa. It reminds me of Tally (Tally-wa).
April 11th, 2007 12:54
i was wondering scott, if we get enough people to sign a petition type of thing, will u give us that first chapter of extras… even if it is just the first dratf
or at least the blurb
April 11th, 2007 12:56
what other scott westerfeld books ae good? thanks! i like the iddea of scott coming to chicago, its really close to me..about 1 hour 1/2 away!
April 11th, 2007 13:13
yea i wish that scott could come to Delaware!!! i would totally go then!!! teehee and…
Anna-wa – the midnighter books are really good… and i liked Peeps wich im reading the second one to right now!!! and its called the last days!
scott i think that you really should post like the frist chapter of Extras up cuz im dieing to now what happens!!!!!!! like really really bad!!! teehee im just sooo excited!! lol well i hope that you had a good easter evein if you were under a dead line… but who cares its a national holiday… maybe even world wide holiday??!! i think it is!! lol
xoxo Alexa-la
April 11th, 2007 13:20
Oh by the way Scott now that we have a picture of the cover and you’ve finished your first draft seriously lets talk about this tagline. Is that really it did you think that up i mean what is going on here scott can i get some overly dramatic line like pretties now that was a dramatic line. Get on the ball there scott.
April 11th, 2007 13:31
he started drropping the tagline thing in specials”The final volume in the highly acclaimed UGLIES trilogy”
April 11th, 2007 13:32
I liked the ping-la part too, Gabby! Randomness rocks.
April 11th, 2007 13:33
wow i cant believe how faar u guys would be willing to go to see scott. i live in nyc so hes comming right here… although it is scott westerfeld, i would probably travel too
April 11th, 2007 13:51
wa=washington
la= Louisiana
hey both states ive am or have lived in
April 11th, 2007 14:09
Haddy-la: haha Thats funny! Oh Wait I just got that they were the abreviations! haha sorry!
Jamie: Oh thats AWESOME! I wish I lived in NYC..Arkansas is pretty boring haha
April 11th, 2007 14:18
I’m mad at you Scott!!! Why must you go to Austin and Houston!?!? Just come to Dallas already!! PLEASE!!! We need you hear!!!
April 11th, 2007 14:56
Atleast he comes in your STATE! He’s never came to Arkansas but I understand..it’s boring. Why would you want to come?!
April 11th, 2007 15:29
Aya-la; coz the ‘ya’ and ‘wa’ sounds are just too similar.
I can’t wait
!!
April 11th, 2007 16:13
I completely agree with you Ally, at least he comes to Savannah’s state. I’m over here in Arizona, land of the heat, and there is no reason Scott would ever come here. (but Scott, if you’re in the area, feel free to stop by)
Oh, and I like Aya-wa.
April 11th, 2007 19:53
Does anyone know when the english version of extras will be out as it is normally quite a while after the american one
not fair…
I prefer Aya-wa too!!
April 11th, 2007 23:11
YAY!!!!!!!!!! i can’t wait to buy it!!!!
April 12th, 2007 02:52
Sent you an email – but I’ll say it here too.
Aya-la. Aya-wa is too like Iowa.
Krisula (yes that’s my real name)
April 12th, 2007 05:23
wow Keisula… how do u say it??? that would really confuse me!! tee-hee
April 12th, 2007 06:07
YAY its done! why does the editing process have to take so darn long?
i dont think it should be either. Aya-la and Aya-wa both sound like a real name, not a nickname like Tally-wa and Shay-la. I think should should have a new one or none at all. but thats just my opinion.
April 12th, 2007 06:08
wait dont get me wrong, Aya is a really cool name alone.
April 12th, 2007 06:16
omg alexa-wa!!! Twilight is the bestest ever! I want Eclipse almost as much as i want Extras!! (almost)
April 12th, 2007 06:29
Christa: do u live in the u.k????
if u do thats so cool… much better than nyc could ever be
April 12th, 2007 06:55
scott, if u know a librarian, could they rview the book than give u a copie?
April 12th, 2007 07:22
Well that is not fair cause Im in school to and my mom teaches so i defanatly cant go POOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!oh well
April 12th, 2007 07:45
I love your series!!!!Extras is finally coming out!!!!!!I like Aya-wa, it sounds a lot better than aya-la. My teacher read your series and loved it! I cant wait to tell her that another book came out!:)
Will you make an appearance in central new York?You will make your biggest fan so happy!:)
April 12th, 2007 07:56
I dunno…I think Aya-la sounds better, but maybe i’m pronouncing aya wrong
April 12th, 2007 08:10
i now Addi-wa i love Twilight to!! lol im right in the middle of new moon!!! at the part wair Jake and Bella are sitting in the Rabbit… and she is asking him the worst and best parts!!! its fawesome!!! dont get me wrong… i want extras to come out to!!!
April 12th, 2007 08:36
amanda-la… how far from nyc r u… hes coming in like 14 days!!!!!
April 12th, 2007 08:42
aya-wa! hahahaha like iowa! makes me laugh….
April 12th, 2007 08:47
you know I was just thinking earlyer that is sounded like iowa but then i just thought it was just that i as saying it wrong and scott i still think aya-wa sounds better!!!
April 12th, 2007 08:55
i say aya-wa!!
April 12th, 2007 09:02
I like Aya-wa! It’s easier to pronounce than Aya-la. But does the new name mean there won’t be the same characters in the extra’s? I hope not because I’m dying to read more about them!!!!!! Can’t wait till I can!!
April 12th, 2007 09:20
Jessie i’m sure the some of the old crims are bound to show up if he needs a la or wa to add to her name that means she must be a part of the once was Crims then specials and then well whatever you get my drift.
April 12th, 2007 09:34
if were are going for ideal appearances, then how about evanston (preferably during summer)
oh well cant have everything maybe just within 2 hours of chicago?????
April 12th, 2007 10:23
I hope ur right!!!!
April 12th, 2007 10:43
i don’t know scott. i dont really like any of them their kind of……….. boring not as exciting as tally-wa or shay-la. but i dont know.
u should come to virginia it’s by the ocean. u can write by the beach….. oh wait theres wind at the beach u wouldnt be able to write oh well. u know ur my fav author know. i even want to write a book my self. i have read ur uglies trioligy about five times each. and the uglies then pretties then specials in 2 days. (im a fast reader.) well congrats cant wait its long times away though.
April 12th, 2007 11:05
Definitely Aya-wa.
April 12th, 2007 11:36
It’s kind of odd how so many people like both Twilight and the Uglies trilogy…
We must all like similar books?!
So does that mean those consumer reviews are right after all?
April 12th, 2007 11:36
yeah, im so obsessed, i read the uglies trilogy 13 times
April 12th, 2007 11:42
i really want to read twilight, it was reccommended to me by (big surprise) another westerfan
yes, i named everyone absolutely obsessed with all theese books westerfans
April 12th, 2007 11:55
i think aya-wa sounds better because it has two syllables, just like tally. where as shay and zane have 1 syllable and use the word la.
does that even make any sense??
April 12th, 2007 11:56
since we “westerfans” have similar tastes, r there any other good books besides twighligt?
April 12th, 2007 11:57
i like 13 little blue envelopes but mureen johnson
April 12th, 2007 11:57
by, not but
April 12th, 2007 11:58
Is there anyway the extra’s can come out faster!!!!!!! I’ve got to read it!!!!!!
April 12th, 2007 11:59
and harry potter
April 12th, 2007 12:05
i read and liked 13 little blue envelopes too!!! we do have the same tastes! happy-making(lol)
April 12th, 2007 12:13
If you pronounce it “eye-uh”, Aya-wa sounds like Iowa. So, Aya-la.
April 12th, 2007 12:16
i think it might be pronounced A-ay… like a long A
April 12th, 2007 13:02
who is twilight by?
April 12th, 2007 14:15
Hmm…not that they mention it…I go with Aya-la…much bubblier…
lol, this is off topic, but I’ve been using fawesome, fexcellent, and ubbly at my school, and now a bunch of other kids are to…I find that endlessly entertaining
April 12th, 2007 14:52
Is it just me, or is this one desaturated? (For all of you that don’t speak Photoshopese, it’s made into gray, black, and white instead of in color). Color or not, it’s still frickin’ awesome. This is going to make this the BEST summer ever, what with Harry Potter AND this. WOOHOO! *happy dance*
April 12th, 2007 19:56
Jamie: yeah, i do
Am i the only one here who does or something?!!!
April 13th, 2007 03:43
Kim: Twilight is by Stephenie Meyer.
April 13th, 2007 03:55
no. i’m english (but also half american… Yay, dual citizenship!)
has anyone here read the Magician Trilogy by Rayond E Feist. Theyre really good (well, the first one is kinda boring, and it has a hint of LOTR, but beyond that, theyre great)
April 13th, 2007 05:00
I’m a big Twilight and Uglies fan too. The same person reccomended them to me.
Anyway, is he ever coming to Atlanta? So sad. haha.
April 13th, 2007 06:32
Aya-la, hands down, either way it’s being pronounced.
If the “Ay” is pronounced like the “i” in “hi”, Aya-wa sounds like the state. Which really messes with me while I read.
If the “Ay” is pronounced like the “ay” in “hay”, Aya-wa reminds me of Eowyn of Lord of the Rings fame. And that’s just WRONG.
April 13th, 2007 06:48
Alexa-wa i finished New Moon a while back, so sad. i also preordered eclispe.
Scott come to Boston!
April 13th, 2007 06:56
Addie-wa what school do you go to in Boston?
April 13th, 2007 06:58
yay english people!!! i love ur accents?
… sort a random, sorry
April 13th, 2007 07:01
thank you capt. cockatiel
April 13th, 2007 07:20
what if its said; ah-YAA stressing the last sylable.
April 13th, 2007 07:33
i dont live in boston, its just the closest big-city
April 13th, 2007 07:42
I guess I should just stop coming to these things cuse NOBODY ever TALKS 2 me anymore what did I do?
April 13th, 2007 08:10
OMG! SOO EXCITED! I’VE BEEN WAITING! I’M GONNA BE CAMPING OUTSIDE OF THE BOOK STORE ON THE DAY IT COMES OUT! NO LIE! ITS GONNA BE FEXCELENT!(lol) SO wait…i, personally, like Aya-wa better..cuz Shay is one syllabol and it sounded better with “la” same with Zane. (gah! why did he have to die???) (=[) See, i thought you had an system..because Tally was 2 syllabols so you would put “wa”…idk..maybe not..’cause Aya is 2 also..so “wa” would go better with Aya. I thought that was the trick..people with even-lettered syllabols have “wa” and one lettered had “la”. But, i’ve guessed wrong i guess..well, you could start using my way..but thats really up to you. *sigh*. But, i seriously cannot wait for Extras! I am going to read the Midnighters Series next, i’ve already read Peeps and The Last Days. So i have to read, I’m planning, all your books. Well, this concludes my EXTREMLY long comment on Extras! Cant wait *happy dance!!!*! I’m so excited! That news has certaintly made my day so much brighter..considering what happened earlier today! Gee, I’m sorry to say..but umm.i sent u an email long long time ago maybe in 2006 around New years..and you’ve never responded..well, anywho. Can’t wait! Ok, this time is the end FOR SURE! I PROMISE!!!!…well..ok…i cant stop typing help! oh..and the ending to The Last Days is kinda confuzzling..it doesnt really END END..ya know?? i mean..umm..yeah..it just ENDS..i dont know how to say it! uuhg..it just doesnt End….idk! it does..but it doesnt..End End…w/e..yeah..lol! look at me babble! Ok..this time i am done..FOR SURE! I PROMISE! oh thats what i said last time..oh well! adios! (yeah! i’m done! arent you happy??)
April 13th, 2007 08:11
What’s wrong with my accent?!!!!
April 13th, 2007 08:12
I like Twilight..but..its too much like Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
April 13th, 2007 08:12
what do you mean Christa..
April 13th, 2007 08:16
well addie-wa the reasoni was asking was that my school went to Boston on a school trip and we played in a heritage festivle at Masconomet Regional School, a good 45 min. drive fron the Boston Logan Airport.
April 13th, 2007 08:17
Yaaay for Extas!!! I have a question…why do you count by word rather than by page? I thought most authors counted by page. Is it that you don’t want it to be innacurate for the transfer from paper back and hard cover to trade since that can make it more or less pages? Or are contracts writen by word rather than by page or something? Just curious.
April 13th, 2007 08:25
Jamie-la. or anyone else who cares..i have a whole bunch of books you could read. i have a whole list more like it. I really liked Sabriel..I am now reading Lireal..sequel if u havent guessed. umm..i really liked The Immortal Series and The Lioness Series by Tamora Pierce. Umm..i liked Goose Girl by Shannon Hale..and Enna Burning (same author). Hmm..The Giver was great too. The Two Princesses of Bamarre..same woman who wrote Ella Enchanted. (only book i’ve read twice in my LIFE.) I really dont get it..why are people so into Harry Potter, i’ve tried many a times..yeah..i cant! i simply just CANT! oh yeah! i know! I also really liked The Golden Compass! I like a lot of creepy vampire books..I dont remember what its called..but the creepy one by Stephen King. Gregor the Overlander Series and Artemis Fowl were also very good. Peter and the Starcatchers. I’ve loant half my books to my friends..but also! The Goergia Niclson Series was fantastic..and so many more..so yeah all you people who are wondering..
April 13th, 2007 08:32
hehe
Shan: jamie said that he loved the english accent!!
Anyway, can’t wait for extras to come out. Wonder what the uk cover will be…
April 13th, 2007 08:57
shan: i cant believe the list you just wrote!… i have the exact same tastes. i loved the giver and i never got into harry potter!
April 13th, 2007 08:59
Aya-la. Aya-wa sounds too much like Iowa, the state.
OMG Thank you for writing another Uglies book, I thought I’d have to imaging the rest of Tally’s story!!!
April 13th, 2007 09:03
christa.. theres nothing wrong with ur accent! i really do. i wish i could be english and have the accent. im going to move there eventally.
April 13th, 2007 09:09
hey thats cool. i like the giver too and i have never read a harry potter book in my life. My favourite vampire books are Twilight and new moon by stephenie meyer:)
April 13th, 2007 09:52

ayala
April 13th, 2007 10:23
Shan — the Georgia Nicolson series is hilarious! My friends and I all read them. We are ordering the newest one that comes out in June or something. I also love the Abhorsen Trilogy, Garth Nix is super cool.
Now I’m waiting for about 5 books to come out. Extras, Blood Beast, and Eclipse are all on my list… and they all come out in autumn. Darn.
April 13th, 2007 10:29
Oops, sorry to post twice. Kailyx, most people use word counts because it is more accurate. You could have 500 pages with only one paragraph on each of them, but you could still boast about having 500 pages. And just for reference, a short novel is usually about 50,000 words long.
April 13th, 2007 10:32
hi judy! wuts up
April 13th, 2007 11:00
We are now officially at 200 comments. Scott, you need to blog again.
April 13th, 2007 11:14
Yes, 200 is a bit excessive, but I guess everyone’s really excited. Well, 201 now. But I forgot to make my opinion known on the Aya-la\wa issue. I say Aya-la hands down. I think it sounds much better that way.
April 13th, 2007 12:28
I notice a lot of people saw the similarities between Iowa and Aya-wa as well. Of the two choices, I think Aya-la definitely sounds way cooler.
However, I also had a thought while reading the books that it is odd that everybody ends with -wa or -la. I think Aya-za or Aya-ta would sound equally good.
It especially makes sense since she lives on the other side of the world in addition to the fact that cities have had barely any contact with eachother in the first place for about 300 years. Their lifestyles are probably very different, even if there is a cultural awaking because of Tally’s actions.
April 13th, 2007 12:38
i like aya-za! it sounds really cool
April 13th, 2007 13:05
yea it is kind of cool!!! tee-hee it is cool its fun to say… Aya-za, Aya-za, Aya-za, Aya-za… now iv had my fun… i hope that everyone has had a good spring break… and i now i dont want to go back to school!!!!! and any way that was randome
April 13th, 2007 13:06
yea it is kind of cool!!! tee-hee it is cool its fun to say… Aya-za, Aya-za, Aya-za, Aya-za… now iv had my fun… i hope that everyone has had a good spring break… and i now i dont want to go back to school!!!!! and any way that was randome!!!!!!!
April 13th, 2007 13:07
oops sorry for the dubble post lol
April 13th, 2007 13:24
lets get bak to the idea of scott posting the first chapter
April 13th, 2007 13:25
i think it is a reasonable thing to ask forr
April 13th, 2007 17:40
Yeah, at first I though Aya-la, but after saying it outloud Aya-wa sounds better!!!! So, AYA-WA!!!!!!! Can’t wait for the book!
April 13th, 2007 19:06
yeah, that would be good if he posted the first chapter
I am dying to know who the characters are etc..
April 13th, 2007 23:50
yep scott should post the 1st chapter… Rick Riordan did it for The Titan’s Curse (in his Percy Jackson series), or you could read it, and we could download the sound file. (some authors do that too.)
Aya-Za sounds cool, we’re going to have to vote for which suffix we prefer…
and you (american) guys are just going back to school now, we’ve still got another 2 weeks… and weird accents (only joking). but you guys have inordinately long summer ‘vacations’
question for scott: is tally an alien? okay, that sounds really weird, but think about it, there were the Rusties, (basically us,) but when they blew themselves up, some people didnt blow themselves up, namely all the characters in the books’ ancestors. Were they aliens? or did they just realise what was going to happen and stopped using oil… My theory is, that about 100 years in the future (from now) people established a moon colony (or on mars, or wherever) and then the rusties blew themselves up, then the people on the moon colony came back to earth, and figured out what happened, and stopped using oil, and became the people who live on the earth and are in the books…
okay, that was very unrelated, but i never understood it (i havent read pretties or specials yet, so if its explained in great detail there, then thats why i don’t know so i’m asking). sorry for the very long post.
April 14th, 2007 02:18
I kind of doubt that Tally is an alien. We think the Rusties are stupid because we’re used to Tally’s mindset. But we’re Rusties. Don’t you think there are plenty of people you know who’d be smart enough to figure out not to drive? Some of them must be strong enough to survive the oil exploding.
I know I’m just sort of copying what Uglies says. But a moon colony….?
April 14th, 2007 05:58
i like aya-za because it sicks to my whole “she should have a new nickname or none” idea but if scott wants to sick with the old ending it should be aya-la.
hmmm…… moon colonies…..
April 14th, 2007 06:25
wow. i thought about how her people could exist considering that all the people were on earth, but i never came up with a reason… moon colonies are is as good an explination as any… i guess(by the way, uur so lucky that in the uk u get two more weeks)
April 14th, 2007 06:30
moon colonies… idk?? it might someday… but i dont think it did in uglys… but i could be wrong!! and a lot of authers post like the first chapter on their website… or like some part of the book!!! it would be really cool… and i wonder how many comments scott is going to get befor he makse a NEW post?? well prolly more then 215!!! hey thats me!! lol wow
April 14th, 2007 06:33
wow this is kind of randome… but my name for the reply thingiey… changed back to my old one… Alexa xoxo, cuz in one post its Alexa-la and then it was Alexa xoxo!! wow freaky!! but not as freaky as the gost that live in my house!!! lol (but im not kidding we do have gost!!!)
April 14th, 2007 06:58
i think that the moon colony could be a probale thing because we are talking about doing that now. or they could be in a space station? but i like aya-za. that sounds oriental.
April 14th, 2007 07:09
OMG can’t wait til Extras!Scott you are totally my favorite author of all time and it’s going to take a lot for that to change. I’m coutin down the days til Extras!
April 14th, 2007 07:14
this is random but b4 i read uglies i called my friends—-la
April 14th, 2007 07:20
I figure that the people who survived in Uglies were all the really smart people who knew what was going on and found shelter, and all of the really poor 3rd world (or just poor in general) country people who don’t have enough money to even buy oil or they didn’t have anything of their own that required it. And they probably lived somewhere that wasn’t near it either.
Uhhh. Yeah XD.
April 14th, 2007 07:29
hey happy friday 13 to every one…. but i shouldnt be saying happy firday 13 now shoulde i?? lol idk??
April 14th, 2007 07:48
o and Katerate- just because people live in the country doesnt meant their poor… most people that live in the country are actully mostly ritch, because all the poeple that live in the country have land and horses and farms and stuff (and im not saying that all people in the country do because i dont!! lol) most poor people live like in the city… the bad parts of the city… or in some kind of town so they dont have to spend much money on gas!!
sorry i dont mean to sound rude or any thing… i just get kind of mad when people say stuff about people poor and liveing in the cuntry… because im not poor and i live in the country!! (and i hate it we live like 30 minutes away form every thing and all my friends!!) but sometimes its has the up sides… live we can do almost any thing we want like fire-works, bon-fires, ride the four wheelers!!!! you now what i mean
sorry again for the long post!!
lol
April 14th, 2007 07:51
what does it mean when next to your name it says… “Alexa-la your comment is awating moderation” what does that mean?? im confused!!!
April 14th, 2007 08:14
idk????? its never happened to me
April 14th, 2007 08:18
lol, I’d just say hapy friday 13th…
April 14th, 2007 08:37
aya-wa or aya-la?
what about combining them to Ayla-wa
April 14th, 2007 08:41
lol… idk?? but its the only thing i can think of lol
April 14th, 2007 09:25
Oh Alex-la it did that to me on Justine’s site and Potato said it was just checking to see if it had anything bad in it like unicorns! haha but idk
April 14th, 2007 10:11
lol i didnt say any thing bad… just that not all people that live in the country arnt always poor… and i didnt say anything at all thats bad!! o well lol
April 14th, 2007 10:32
Wow, Shan! You read everything Capt. and I read!!!
The book by Stephan King your thinking of is SALAMS’ LOT which is sooooooo good. Everyone should read it along with King’s book CELL.
And what’s with people reading books multiple times (like Harry Potter)?! Two, three, even four times I can understand but reading a book more then that gets into obsession!
Life is short. Don’t read the same thing over and over again. Get a new book already!!!
Um, okay, I think that’s all I wanted to say. This blog is sort of almost more like a chat room…or maybe that’s just me
Okay. Why am I still writing?
-Topaz
April 14th, 2007 10:58
isnt Topaz a jem stone?? o never mind i now it is because it is in twilight duh!!
April 14th, 2007 11:00
lol i just answered my own question!! wow lol thier was no reason to post it!!! lol but thier is no reason to post this eather but o well!! lol
April 14th, 2007 11:13
I am sooo excited for Extras! I am sure it’s gonna be so amazing! Oh! And I like Aya-la. Well Anyways, can’t wait ’till it comes out!
xxoo
April 14th, 2007 11:18
I love your books, that make me feel so bubbly.
Odd comparison, but I live in the “fabulous” state of California. Every single freakin’ thing here is cookie-cutter. The houses in our neighborhood, the fashions at our school, the park styles, and anything else here. However, to my inevitable point; I feel so related to Tally in that I desire to look like the many other students and neighbors here; Yet, I long to rebel against it, and be unique. I feel so split, half of my friends are drop-dead gorgeous but look all the same practically. The other half is also drop-dead gorgeous, but rebel with un-coordinating colors. And I’m stuck, friends with both of the sides while they loathe each other for being different. Then there is the issue of boyfriends; two guys I un-doubtedly like and both like me back. They are ‘friends’ and hang out some of the time, but one is hot and popular while the other is more rebellious and un-coordinated. [Fashion wise.] I’ll make up my mind eventyally, but just thought I would share my story.
Tally’s story just feels so… deja vu, or shall I say ‘bubbly’? (Or is it more ‘icy’? Now there is the real question!)
Last question/comment/story/whatever; If the ‘Uglies’ is a trilogy; why is there a fourth book? [Note the 'TRI' in 'trilogy'] Is it turning into a marvelous series as many of your fans have pointed out? Or perhaps is it the start of something entirely new, like a new series, just building off the same idea???
I’ll stop my rambling, and leave your eyes and mind at ease…
I’ll be checking back for answers. =)
April 14th, 2007 11:21
Oh! How impolite of me!!
I forgot to answer your question. =[
I prefer 'Aya-wa' to 'Aya-la.'
'Aya-la' sounds too strained, like you have to be careful when saying it. 'Aya-wa' sounds like it can come out easiy, perfectly. (However, if you prefer a strained sound, then go ahead and use 'Aya-la'.)
Buh-bye peeps! [Not as in your book, as in a term referring to people similar to me.
]
April 14th, 2007 11:22
Um…it’s Friday the thirteenth where I live. The date thingie says its the fourteenth. But Dess would like today. A-P-R-I-L-T-H-I-R-T-E-E-N has thirteen letters.
April 14th, 2007 11:34
13 is so anti-darkling, but 4+13+7=24
a moon colony could work, or launch a ship into orbit that has solar all over the outsideand it has plants and constanly filtering water. if it was done right, it could have ecosystems and last forever, idk
SCOTT PLEASE POST YOUR FIRST CHAPTER!
April 14th, 2007 11:48

April 14th, 2007 12:48
Scott you should come to Washington D.C really soon like now!
please!
April 14th, 2007 12:52
Yaay! I’m so excited!
I remember I was just sitting in the computer lab at study hall going to random websites and suddenly I see something on your blog about Extras and I jumped from my chair and squealed. Everyone sort of stared at me…-sighs- good times…
2007 is a good year. Extras. Deathly Hallows. Eclipse…What else… I could’ve sworn there were a couple more books I was obsessing over.
Of course Scott’s are the best
April 14th, 2007 14:12
OMG can’t wait for all those books ‘Rainy’ mentioned. I just peed myself thinking about it.
April 14th, 2007 14:29
ok i’m so glad it is finished!!!!i can’t wait to read it but i have other news with me. I was just in Libba Bray’s website which is also one of my favorite authors besides Scott and she was talking about how she was having lunch with Justine Labalestier. Well, she left the address of Maureen Johnson’s blog which talks about Scott finishing up the book.
Believe me, you may want to read it because it gives a part of the book. And i’m not telling how much.
April 14th, 2007 14:31
for those who don’t know it is:
http://maureenjohnson.blogspot.com/2007/04/libba-bray-has-glass-eye-and-other-ya.html
and for those who like libba bray, did you know she has a glass eye?!!!!
Congratulations, Scott. Now hurry to the editors!!!!!
April 14th, 2007 14:37
Alexa-la its not the most he has had actually. The most he has is like 700 over on the Specials Spoilers Zone post but its more of a group I guess..
Amelia-wa we found out on the Wednesday, January 10th, 2007 post..it should be on the same page as the newest one
April 14th, 2007 15:01
well i didnt mean like the spoilers… cuz i now it is like a way lot… i just meant like the normal blog post… but o well and this i kind of randome (here i go again about something really stupid)…
but my dad told me to clean the bathroom and he tole my little sister to dust the liveing room and that kind of stuff… and so i was up stairs cleaning the bath room and my sister took the windex and i told her that i needed that and to give it back when she was done… so i went on cleaning the sink, and she was like ok im done… come and get the windex but i was bussiy and lazy.. so i said for her to bring it up but she is really stuborn and threw a fit so i went downstairs to get then she got all mad and said she wasnt done yet so she started yelling at me for “stelling the windex when she was using it” and then she was pushing me and yelling some more so i pushed her back and then she told my dad so he pushed me! and i was standing in the bathroom when he pushed me so i kind of fell into\in the bathtube and i hit my knee on the tile floor and now its brused!! so im not talking to my sister for the rest of the day to make my point!!
wow its kind of long and really stupid… but im still mad at her… she always has to start it over something really stupid to!!! i mean if your going to fight at least fight over something worth it!! right??
April 14th, 2007 15:16
Seriously..my bigger AND littler sister do that all the time! it makes me so mad!
April 14th, 2007 17:05
Go for Aya-wa. It’s so much icier.
April 14th, 2007 17:06
Oops. Meant Aya-La.
April 14th, 2007 21:37
nick: why do u have 2 more weeks?
I have 2 more days!! :’(
April 14th, 2007 23:51
ive been back for 3 days already…
Katie-wa(and anyone else whos wondering)–we both no the right thing to do would be to get out of the craziness of ur school’s cliques and poularity, and overall “cookie-cutter-ness” but it probly seems like if you do that u might loose friends or not have enough people behind you to change anythin, there are a lot of things that could go wrong. just remember, theres a lot of things that could go right. the small group of smokies+tally changed the world, you may change your shool
April 15th, 2007 00:14
Scott it would be very nice for you to post the first chapter of Extras on here. but you dont have to do anything u dont want to Scott. Im just saying what if I die next week and never get to even read a little bit a Extras, the onhe thing my heart was waiting on. *sniffle* (that is if heaven doesnt get books whitch i guess its heaven so it would, but it wouldnt be the same) (that also depends on if i go there *evil laugh*) How would it make you feel if one of ur loyal fans died without reading even the first chapter of Extras??
P.S. if u post the first chapter of Extras here ill give u two pencils and my friendship
April 15th, 2007 02:10
Jamie-la…So fawsome how we have the same taste! Christie I seriously wish i had ur accent! i luv the way u guys talk! it totally rox! i could listen to ya all day! lol
April 15th, 2007 02:25
Ok..so yeah! i think you should put the first chpt up 2! it would so totally rock! buttt then again the first copy isnt AS good as the book when its all done and edited! I’m happy so many people liked my comments! Anyone one else seen Buffy the Vampire Slayer? cus its like Twilight in many ways. so yeah..i dont want to say Twilight is bad..but it just goes to show that no idea is origigional..geez! i need to learn how to spell!
April 15th, 2007 02:26
origional..gah! thats not rit either
April 15th, 2007 02:28
Alexa-la..ur dad is agressive…shheesh! i’m so sorry that happend to ya! =’[
April 15th, 2007 03:02
omg alexa-la!
hope it gets better!
April 15th, 2007 03:43
Wow, Alexa-la. That’s pretty bad.
April 15th, 2007 04:10
I’M SORRY TO CHANGE THE SUBJECT! BUT I’M EXCITED! I LIKE SQUEEL EVERY 5 SECONDS! CANT WAIT!
April 15th, 2007 04:14
Katie-wa..a triliogy can turn into a quad..its not the end of the world if the Uglies series turns into a four-some! i was actually hoping there would be another..but if you think about it..Extras is just truely a companion book cus the main char is not the beloved Tally-wa.
April 15th, 2007 04:38
THIS MESSAGE COMTAINS INFO ABOUT SPECIALS!
i will miss tally so much! i was so upset when zane died in specials! but now tally and david can get back together…..
April 15th, 2007 06:29
hey a quick message to all of you complaining about spring break: quit it! MY spring break was the second to last week of March, all i got off for easter was Good Friday!
scott should post the first chapter of extras. We got the first chapter of pretties and specials, so why not extras?
April 15th, 2007 06:34
oops! i forgot to answer the question. I like Aya-za. Yes i meant for that too be a “z”. Since its in Japan it makes sense that the endings wouldn’t be the same as in Tally’s city.
This is a little unrelated, but does Tally’s city have a name like Diego does?
April 15th, 2007 06:45
I think that out loud, Aya-wa sounds better. Whereas Aya-la, the tongue somewhat trips over everything.
Can’t wait for Extras! Love your work!
~Sabrina
April 15th, 2007 06:57
hey scott? how did you decide to use -la and -wa? i think Zane-za would have sounded pretty funny. so would tally-ta and shay-sa. ok so that’s just using the first letter of their name, butit would be interesting woldnt it?
April 15th, 2007 06:58
i read that tally’s city was near current day seattle and the rusty ruins is wat used to be seatle. Diego is like current day san diego, so maybe tally’s city is atle or somthing???
April 15th, 2007 06:59
ahhhhh! 271 comments? scott, you need a new entry
April 15th, 2007 07:08
obessedwith david: Yeah Ive been back in school for like two weeks. And I was also wondering if it had a name too!
April 15th, 2007 07:15
You need to blog.
You need to post your first chapter of EXTRAS.
You need to put the first chapter of EXTRAS on your blog.
We need to know mor than “Flakes were falling from the sky, like a light snow.”
What’s the new species of hover equipment?
I bet you have a good excuse,
like you were busy secretly getting the first draft of EXTRAS to me (again, you know you want to.)
Maybe your really busy writing RUSTIES
or maybe your writing midnigters 4
sorry for the long post, it probably has a very dakling number or words (cept again, they hate computers)
see scott, im repeating my other posts, BLOG (you know you want to)
April 15th, 2007 07:22
Alexa-la (or -wa, not sure which…)
Yeah, Topaz is a gem. It’s the birthstone of November. But what that has to do with Scott’s writing, I don’t know.
-Topaz
April 15th, 2007 07:47
omg Aya-la cuz Aya-wa sounds like Iowa :\
]
OMG Rusties should SO be next!!!
I LUFF SCOTT WESTERFELD OMG PEEPS WAS SUCH A GOOD BOOK! [currently working on The Last Days
April 15th, 2007 07:52
omg GIVE US THE NEXT DARN CHAPTER OF EXTRAS!!! T.T gawd ur making me CUH-razy not being able to read it!!!
One day I was surfing the internet when I discovered “So Yesterday.” I read the whole first chapter in a one inch by one inch box that I had to click on every time I finished reading every 2 sentences. I was so hooked on the book by that time that I begged my mom to take me to the library-even tho it just so happened to be 9:00 and the library would close in 5 minutes. I stayed up all night that night and finished it!!! Gawd it was so good!!! I’m SUCH a Westerfan
April 15th, 2007 08:08
I think that Aya-wa is better… i was about to die when i found out that the 4th book isnt coming out until October! i love this series! i couldnt put the book down and kept getting in trouble for reading during class! lol
April 15th, 2007 08:18
OMG
)
ANYONE WHO EVEN REMOTELY LIKES SCOTT WESTERFELD WILL LOVE TWILIGHT, NEW MOON, AND ECLIPSE BY STEPHENIE MEYER (series
April 15th, 2007 08:26
YES! I love Stephenie Meyer as well!!! and i’ve read all her books. I can’t wait for Eclipse!!!
April 15th, 2007 08:38
Aya-san?
April 15th, 2007 09:06
Out of all teachers my Eng/Lit teacher yelled at me for reading the Uglies triliogy in class!! how weird is that!??!! totally NOT fool. geez.
April 15th, 2007 09:08

I’m lazy, I stopped reading by post 110.(Jeeze, I don’t check the site for 4 days and a million posts show up)
p.s. Aya-wa
April 15th, 2007 11:20
i just got back from WALKING to borders for twilight (Rachel-ra
said it was fawsome, im cold)
286th post means you need to blog
April 15th, 2007 11:21
unless you have a good excuse,
like you were busy secretly getting the first draft of EXTRAS to me (again, you know you want to.)
Maybe your really busy writing RUSTIES
or maybe your writing midnigters 4
April 15th, 2007 11:42
lol. Twilight is good! good choice! Eclipse comes out Aug. 6, so get reading!
April 15th, 2007 12:22
Aya-la, totally.
Me and my friends follow this rule that seems to work:
If the name has an L in it, it should end in -wa. And if it doesn’t it should end in -la.
I.e.,
Haley-wa
Tomera-la
Kaitlyn-wa
Abby-la
OR
Abigail-wa
You see?
Haha I’m sure you do.
In the case of Gwendaline, i’m not sure what would take place, as it has both a W and a L…
So! It would be Gwen-la, or Gwendaline-wa.
Yes…
Haha, but that’s just me.
April 15th, 2007 12:25
Hey, Mr. Westerfeld…I’ve got a question for you.
As Uglies was originally trilogy…
And Extras is clearly an add on…
It’s not a trilogy anymore then, right?
It’s a series…
So does that mean, perhaps…
another book is coming after Extras?
In all honesty…
I hope so!
April 15th, 2007 12:58
I want to be Shelby-Sha. Haha I don’t think I’d fit in in New Pretty Town.
(Double IN’S?)
April 15th, 2007 13:10
when are you ever going to post again, scott??
April 15th, 2007 14:55
Okay wiat! how do we say Aya b/c people were saying that Aya-wa sounded like Iowa but I was like “No it doesn’t” and then I realized that they were saying it different then I was..I say it “A-Yuh-Way” and they say it “Ay-A-Wuh”
so, HOW DO YOU SAY IT??
Oh and also post again please!!
April 15th, 2007 15:02
I’m pretty sure that “Aya” is pronounced like “eye-uh” which would make “Aya-wa” sound like “eye-uh-wah”
April 15th, 2007 15:05
ohh okay i was saying it wrong then..thank you!
April 15th, 2007 15:52
Just a thought; what ever happened to Leviathan?
April 15th, 2007 17:15
What’s that?
April 16th, 2007 00:10
Umm..Haley Rea: I like your theory. but idk..here’s mine.check out Post # 181 for it! And..Katerate: whats Leviathan..
I like Aya-la.but it doesnt match my theory to things. everyone appears to like Aya-wa..but they both sound fool..so..er..yeah..UK ur so lucky! its comin’ out sooner!!!!! I like the Gossip Girls series 2…(extent on post # 187)
April 16th, 2007 03:11
Yaaaaaaaaaaay, I can’t wait!! ^-^
I like Aya-wa better. =]
April 16th, 2007 03:19
300!!!!! oh yea
April 16th, 2007 03:35
I was really thniking Aya-la. Then I said it out lound and found that it sounds better as Ayla-wa, but it looks better as Ayla-la. Eather way I’ll be happy!!!!!
April 16th, 2007 04:24
Yeah
April 16th, 2007 04:25
Jamie-la! i miss u! come and talk to me
April 16th, 2007 04:33
Leviathan was the book Scott told us that he was working on before Extras.
April 16th, 2007 04:43
omg my mom said that i was on the computer to long the other day… so she wouldnt let me get on yesterday!!!!
and wow i feel really love thanks… and my knee is doning better its not really that bad… iv had worse and no my dad isnt really all that bad, he is in the military (yes im a military BRAT!!! lol)
and Topaz i was just wondering… cuz it was in twilight!!! tee-hee
scott you really need to blog more!! lol but your probally just bussy with editing and stuff but idk? lol
April 16th, 2007 04:45
o and i just finished the last days!! it was really good tho i didnt really like the biging
but i was still good so after your finished Extras you need to wright and other book for the peeps books or what ever they would be called!! lol
April 16th, 2007 04:56
Scott is still in Texas but Justine has been blogging so he has no excuse for not blogging!
April 16th, 2007 04:58
It was in Twilight? As in the book?
-Topaz
April 16th, 2007 05:07
yea… because that is the cool of Edwards eyes when he is full… and that is why Bella says that is here favorite jem stone….
lol
April 16th, 2007 05:08
Shan: Blood Beast is book #5 in the Demonata series by Darren Shan. There is, however, a book called Across the Wall by Garth Nix which has a story about what happens after the Abhorsen trilogy is over. It also has a funny game. And lots and lots of other stories.
April 16th, 2007 05:10
and is that really your name?? or did you just put that because it is your birthstone??
i would hate to be named after a jemstone!!
April 16th, 2007 05:20
I can not WAIT to read it!! YAY!
And I always thought that a name that had two or more syllables was -wa, and a name with one (or less, i guess…) would end with -la. So in my opinion, Aya-wa…plus, it sounds better.
April 16th, 2007 05:22
Alexa-la: That is not really her name. I’ve known her for eight years, so unless she has several identities…
April 16th, 2007 05:44
o ok lol sorry… well tahts cool that u now her… i dont think that i like actually know any one on this website… lol but o well and after i thought about im kind of named after a jem stone to!! lol my middle name is jade but i still dont really like being named after a jemstone… even if i do like the name
April 16th, 2007 05:53
Can you tell us more about Leviathan? Airships are cool.
April 16th, 2007 05:54
Not that I don’t appreciate Extras.
Or, ah, you know, how much I would appreciate a fourth Midnighters.
April 16th, 2007 06:09
Hey, you guys…
So there’s been confusion with pronunciation, right?
Well, let’s remember that Aya lives in Japan, and is probably Japanese.
I take Japanese, so we can go over this.
Aya is made of two signatures – A and Ya
A is pronounced Ah.
and Ya is pronounced Yah.
Together: AhYah.
Which sounds like
Aiya
When said fast.
So, in fact, with -wa at the end, her name would sound like Iowa.
End
April 16th, 2007 06:14
can’t wait for Leviathan… which is like a big monster whale.
Has anyone read Airborn and Skybreaker by Kenneth Oppel (theyre about airships)
April 16th, 2007 06:20
nick- i like airsips… im thinking about becomeing a piolet… but that might change (my mom doesnt want me in the military) but any way…
indigoeyes- what were you talking about with the can you tell us more abut Leviathan?? what is Leviathan?? im confused… and i dont like to be confused lol man sping break is over today!!!
that sucks… but itll give something to do other than burn a whole im my bank account!! lol
April 16th, 2007 06:20
Leviathan is actually the name of the airship, methinks.
April 16th, 2007 06:22
(Argh, I hate double posting)
If you look in some of Scott’s previous blogs, he has posts about Leviathan if you really want to know more.
April 16th, 2007 06:29
fool thanks… lol wow i feel really stupid lol… but im a blonde as iv said befor lol
April 16th, 2007 06:54
this is kind of randome… but i was looking at my firends mp3 player and their is this song on their that i really like… and iv never heard it befor… but its called Scotty Doesnt Know by Lustra it about how he did scottys girlfriend and he did her on his birthday… lol it really funny tho
April 16th, 2007 08:14
Since not too many here are acquinted with Japanese it’s not so odd to see them going for la…Still! It makes me laugh.
Aya-wa it is.
I actually only recently started reading Uglies and I’m almost finished, after that I will immediately stuff my nose in the other two books.
I live in The Netherlands and English books in English are scarce in the libraries here. Everything’s translated. That’s good for those who don’t know English or aren’t good at it, but I’m someone who just has to read a book in the language it was originally written in.
Since I couldn’t find your books in the library in English I, in all my craziness, simply decided to buy all the Uglies books (Peeps included — because I love vampires) at once, online. A friend of mine thought I was insane, and I too wondered if I was going to regret ordering all the books, what if I didn’t enjoy them? Though some part of me (the bookworm) convinced me otherwise. Besides, many said that if you loved Stephenie Meyer’s books then you would also go for Scott Westerfeld’s Uglies series (though, that’s not much of an argument if you ask me…)
What I’m saying is: Great book. I’m sure you know. Can’t wait to indulge myself in the other ones. And one set in Japan! That’s such a treat ;D (I love, almost, all things Japanese.)
April 16th, 2007 08:18
Whoa, I should proofread before posting:
Besides, many said that if you loved Stephenie Meyer’s books then you would also go for Scott Westerfeld’s Uglies series (though, that’s not much of an argument if you ask me…
*there should be no ‘go for’ there…Replace it with love D:
April 16th, 2007 08:20
AYA-LA
DEFINETLY
DEFINETLY
NO BOUDT
AYA-LA IS MUCH BETTER THAN AYA-WA
April 16th, 2007 08:21
referring to my previous comment
“no boudt”…I meant NO DOUBT, I know how to spell….sorry about that
April 16th, 2007 09:28
i wonder how long its gunna take befor their is 400!!!!!!! that would bee a lot!! but were almost their!! yey lol 328 means 72 more post to go!!!
April 16th, 2007 09:30
Yay!!!! Uglies book 4! I am in LOVE with this series. I read uglies and pretties in the same day. I got specials the day it came out. I’m slightly curious as to why you continued the series after that brilliant ending to Specials though. I thought it was perfect. Also, where does Aya-wa live? oh yes definitely Aya-wa. Do the characters from the previous books appear?
April 16th, 2007 09:32
Aya-wa (if pronounced how I think you pronounce it) sounds like Iowa.
April 16th, 2007 10:05
Aaron-la- Aya lives in japan…and i didnt really like the they ending to specials… cuz it like leaves u hanging!! but thats just me tho it was a good ending but they way he ended it seamed like their needed to be more…. and now their is!!! lol
April 16th, 2007 10:17
Aaron-la Aya lives in japan… and i didnt really like the way specails ended… it was good and all but it makes me want to find out whats gunna happen next but now im not as mad cuz their is a 4th book!!! yey lol
April 16th, 2007 10:18
oops sorry about that cuz i just email my friends the cover to extras and i didnt see my post up so i did it again!! lol sorry againg didnt mean to
April 16th, 2007 11:11
why aren’t you blogging, are you abandoning us to go to New Prettt Town?
April 16th, 2007 11:22
Aya-wa sounds much better
April 16th, 2007 11:24
oh yeah… I’m so excited for this new book!
April 16th, 2007 11:28
bored, bored, bored. will anything ever change on this website???
April 16th, 2007 11:49
*pretyy*
April 16th, 2007 11:50
just wondering would you consider writing RUSTIES?
April 16th, 2007 12:28
Hahaha, intensegreeneyes…Don’t we know what the Rusty life is like ourselves?
April 16th, 2007 12:32
sooo, are any of you here from ohio??
April 16th, 2007 12:32
Shoot, I had something to say.
Uhhh.
Oh, just that my -la and -wa theory works for the book, too.
You know. If there’s a L in the name, it ends with -wa, if not, it ends in -La…
Yeah! It works for the book.
Shay-la (No L in her name, so La is added)
Zane-la (Ditto)
Tally-wa (There’s an l in the name, so wa is added)
Hahah that’s all.
April 16th, 2007 12:34
One more thing.
Say that someone was speaking japanese about Aya, lets say the said that…Aya was beautiful.
And say that the nickname was Aya-wa
Then the sentence would be this:
Aya-wa wa kirei desu.
Yeah.
Aya-wa wa?
No.
Aya-la.
Aya-la wa kirei desu.
Yes.
April 16th, 2007 12:35
“Hmmmm” haha, no I’m not from Ohio, I’m from Wisconsin!
I would say the good ol’ cheese state, but apparently CALIFORNIA TOOK THAT FROM US.
Thanks a lot.
April 16th, 2007 12:45
well, Haley Rae yes, but do we know how we end?
April 16th, 2007 12:56
intensegreeneyes: i think it would be interesting to read about how we died and everything
hmmmm: im not from ohio im from arkansas, way down south
April 16th, 2007 13:21

SCOTT! SHEESH PUT A NEW POST UP!!!! AAAAHHH
April 16th, 2007 13:45
Shan: It’s basically this series about demons. It’s set from three points of view (there are three main characters) and each has their own book. The first one is called “Lord Loss.” Darren Shan has also written one of the best vampire series ever, Cirque Du Freak. I looove them. Just got them signed a few weeks ago.
April 16th, 2007 14:15
Cirque Du Freak is about vampires? I always figured it was a horror book about some twisted carnival. And the freak show is a mad scientists genetic experiments. (Um, yes, I really did think that. Don’t laugh.)
But vampires… I might read that now. It’s in the school library.
April 17th, 2007 06:49
YAY!!!
I like Aya-la.
I thought Uglies was a triligy!
April 17th, 2007 07:16
COURNTEE: IT IS, THIS IS JUST A COMPAINION BOOK
Capt. Cocktail: I’M SOO READING THEM! TOTALLY FAWSOME! THNX MUCH! WHOOOT!
April 17th, 2007 07:23

shan-i cried too! for the ending of the series and cuz zane died
mila-i went to amsterdam this summer(i really liked it)its cool u live in holland.
i love all europeans(shan+mila+any other europeans)
April 17th, 2007 09:07
if scott would write RUSTIES, what would it be about? I would want it to have at least some of the same characters and that wouldn’t happen if it was set in today’s world maybe tally or someone would time travel to try to stop the rusty world from collapsing or something…? never mind, unless you like it
April 17th, 2007 09:08
btw, im NOT saying scott shouldn’t write RUSTIES, he should
April 17th, 2007 09:42
scotts obviously creative, he would think of somthingfor rusties… he thought of tally’s world didnt he?
April 17th, 2007 11:25
first of all i just want to say that i’m completely OBSESSED with the uglies series and i’m SO excited for the 4th book to come out!
haha
and i like aya-wa better!
April 17th, 2007 12:00
Jamie-la: sorry! I’ve been quite busy myself! lol! Omg! guys get this! I’m writing a book myself! it’s totally sweetness! And yeah, I’m from England myself! (cause I’m cool like dat) =] Lol, I’m so totally excited to read all the books on my book list this summer!
April 17th, 2007 12:06
Ps – Guys, this is totally funny. My friend Kristy she’s kinda a dumb blonde if you must say. and we were talking about different types of metals at the end of swimteam practice, and Haley goes “I think bronze is the hardest” and then some other person goes “No, i dont think so.” and someone else says “I think Urainium is.” and Kristy goes “Well it SHOULD be the heaviest its a PLANET!! DUH!” and we all started laughing so hard. and she’s like “what???” and someone finally told her and she goes “Oh, oops!” I had a moment like that once, it was so funny! Ok, so my mum and i were at a resturant and i was all “Oh shoot, i forgot to do my homework for Science!” and my mum goes “better call home and leave a message to remind yourself.” so she went off to the bathroom and i got her phone out and flipped thru her contacts and saw Shannon and so i called it, not realizing it was my cell number, and then my phone started ringing and i got my phone out and flipped it open and said “Hello? Hello??” and then i realized I had called my OWN cell, and everyone said i pulled a Kristy! it was hilarious
April 17th, 2007 18:16
wow this thread got a lot of comments. ~
and scott didn’t even comment back! oh well. he’s too busy celebrating!
and of course, i agree. aya-wa sounds much better. aya-la is too asian… and normalish.
lol, and a side note, i totally choked when someone was like, “what’s Leviathan?” the SHOCK and HORROR!
April 18th, 2007 07:00
aya-la is supposed to sound asian. she’s asain!!!
April 18th, 2007 11:05
What sounds Asian now is pretty unapplicable considering that Extras takes place way in the future. I think Aya-wa just sounds better.
April 19th, 2007 05:26
aya-la duh
aya-wa is soo like iowa
April 19th, 2007 07:01

i neeeeed to know how to pronounce Aya. anyone know?
April 21st, 2007 07:07
you know how everyone say they like Aya-wa but it sounds too much like Iowa. well if thats wat it sounds like then Aya must sound like this: I-yah. well i dont kno Megla maybe this can help but idk so.. yea
April 21st, 2007 09:16
AYA-ZA!!!
April 21st, 2007 09:17

April 21st, 2007 11:24
LOL! I KNOOW!
April 22nd, 2007 02:44
Yay. I haven’t fully read Specials yet, but I’ll most likely be finished with it by the end of the day. Three days ago I ordered Pretties and Specials off Amazon.com. I also came across a listing for a book called Smokies written by Scott Westerfeld. At first, I thought that would be book four, but then noticed that the fourth book is called Extras. Did he write Smokies too? What is Smokies?
April 22nd, 2007 03:50
is there going to be another book after extras?
April 22nd, 2007 04:18
I’m changing my name to Tiff-la on here instead of Tiffany in spirit of the series. =)
Olivia-
I’m not sure if there’s going to be another book after Extra’s; that’s what I was wondering. But if there is, I’ll bet it’s called Smokies.
April 22nd, 2007 06:01
Alright, so I went back reading through some past posts and all… and it gives me a question. Alright, so the main character person in Extras is named Aya… What happens to Tally? Is she completely forgotten? That would suck. I love her!
April 22nd, 2007 09:13
I wonder if Tally becoomes the enemy in this book, because at the end she said how she would be there to stop the cities from growing too big and out of control.
April 22nd, 2007 09:14
at least, the enemy from Aya’s perspective is what I meant
April 22nd, 2007 10:43
hello people wats up!?
April 22nd, 2007 10:44
yeah!!!!!!!!! im post number 400!!!!! I love this series!
April 22nd, 2007 11:09
lol, i love this series too.
and omg, you’re right… Tally could be considered a bad guy… or maybe… since at the end of specials she and david say they’re going to lay low for a bit… maybe they just fade themselves into Extras if you get what i mean.
April 23rd, 2007 10:20
Pods, u havent even read Pretties and Specials yet..and Tally IS a bad person…yet she’s not..she’s inbetween..
April 23rd, 2007 11:46
Can’t wait for Extras Scott! You are the best writer EVEEEEEEEEEEEEEER!
April 23rd, 2007 23:08
heyheyla.
i rekon aya-la, if you say it “eye-ya-la”… but i like the whole sylable system so maby it should be wa…. then again i like that only tally has wa so maby it should be la. hmmm…. interesting.
i loved specials it was crazy-making good and bubbly.
(p.s. so i havn’t read all the comments (coz there’s over 400!) but i think most of you guys are from America. im from Aus (as in Australia not Austin). so that is cool. yeah. ok. that’s all.)
April 24th, 2007 00:13
yea i kno shan but i like the uglies so that means it must be a good series
April 24th, 2007 06:51
w/e
April 24th, 2007 08:31
i can’t wait to read extras
April 24th, 2007 09:34

April 25th, 2007 06:55
Geez attitude problem.
April 25th, 2007 06:58

HOLA
April 25th, 2007 12:45
aya-wa.
i think all teh names that end with a vowel sound better with a ‘wa’ and the others with a ‘la’.
April 26th, 2007 07:28
Im sorry but i like Aya-la better… even tho it wouldnt go with the rules for it or whatever..
April 26th, 2007 09:44
there r no “rules” people jst have dif theories.. but Aya-la stumbles over the tongue..thats what i think
April 26th, 2007 11:31
he is going with la
i asked him today
April 27th, 2007 22:42
arg…but “la” trips over the tongue!!! *sigh*
April 28th, 2007 13:16
the only problem with “Aya-wa” is that it sounds like IOWA. So…yeah, I dunno about that.
April 28th, 2007 15:39
tru, but still…i vote “za”!!! lol, i know he said “la” but still
April 29th, 2007 12:45
i think that aya-wa is better. aya-la sort of sounds like ayla (which is a name.) there are a lot of kool, weird names like zara, krystal, mik,april, kirsten, kory. i know people named ayla, zara, zane, and shayla (not shay, but shayla.) we call her shay for short though. i know people named all the names i’ve listed, i’m surrounded by weird names. i know somebody named maddy! meee. yay. there is a maddy in midnighters and uglies trilogy! i feel lucky.
April 29th, 2007 13:39
so this is the ACTUAL fourth book of the Uglies series? earlier, i thought you were saying this wasn’t part of the trilogy. i guess it is now.
hmmm… interesting. and EXCITING!
April 29th, 2007 23:30
Aya-wa,definately!
April 30th, 2007 04:21
I LIKE AYA-LA BETTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
April 30th, 2007 06:26
OMG…. ITS SO SAD… DID U HEAR ABT THE PITCHER ON THE CARDINAL’S TEAM WHO GOT KILLED TODAY IN A CAR ACCIDENT.. GEEZ ITS REALLY REALLY SAD.
April 30th, 2007 06:28
OMG ITS SO SAD… DID U HEAR ABT THE PITCHER FROM THE BASEBALL TEAM THE CARDINALS?? HE WAS KILLED TODAY IN A CAR ACCIDENT.. GEEZ ITS REALLY REEALLY SAD
April 30th, 2007 06:29

May 1st, 2007 10:53
Aya-la is my pick. Aya-wa just sounds so.. ick.
AYAWAAAAAAA. Just like something some ninja would scream at people =P Aya-la sounds more sophistacted, I think.
May 1st, 2007 11:40
yes yes yes i absolutely agree with u Sarah. I like Aya-la much much better. ur totally right
May 1st, 2007 11:40
Aya-wa… definetly… it sounds sooo much cooler!! it just… i dunno.. clicks!!
May 1st, 2007 11:41
AYA-WA!!! NOOOOOOOOOO!!! AYA-WA!!!!
May 1st, 2007 12:11
really? i like Aya-la better. I kno everyone keeps saying this but Aya-wa sounds too much like IOWA. but…IDK…
May 1st, 2007 12:19
AYA-LA AYA-LA AYA-LA!!!!!!!!!!
May 2nd, 2007 06:55

May 6th, 2007 05:43
Arghh im not too crazy abt this series scott.. im srry but its kinda bad and boring.
May 6th, 2007 07:39
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr u kno thats very mean leslie wow..
May 6th, 2007 15:20
wtf?? how can u NOT like the Uglies????????/
May 7th, 2007 01:05
no offense but i think its boring and it doesn’t make sense. but thats MY opinion
May 8th, 2007 06:58
it does make sense…when u get into it, it’s action-packed and totally fool! give it a second try! or try Midnighters!!!!!!!!
May 8th, 2007 08:16
i read all the books in the uglies series but i just dont get them. its confusing 4 me
May 8th, 2007 10:26
OMG ANOTHER BOOK?!!
this is so exciting!!!
this series(trilogy?) is my favorite ….ever.
hmmm im not sure, at first Aya-wa sounded better but now im not so sure..
thank you thank you thank you for making another book
i’m thinking about starting to read the “peeps” series. i already read the midnighters books (loved ‘em!)
May 8th, 2007 11:08
i think Aya-wa sounds so much better!!
OMG!! i can’t freakin wait til it comes out!!
at first, i didn’t even know if you were writing a fourth book, but my friend ren told me you were and i had to come check it out.
love,
casey
May 8th, 2007 13:48
?????????????????????
May 8th, 2007 21:41
Really? I think Aya-la sounds kind of better.
OMG I can’t wait to tell all my friends there’s going to be a fourth uglies book…
THIS IS SO BUBBLY!
May 9th, 2007 12:01
no it’s not..
May 10th, 2007 04:31
Aya-wa, definately. I had to say it out loud to really hear the difference and it does sound better.
I just found out today that there was going to be a fourth book. But I was reading in another website that the Uglies trilogy is still the Uglies trilogy. It’s just that the Extras book is going to be a start of another trilogy/series or something like that. If that’s true, I’m soooo happy. I’m like doing my research right now and now I know what it is sort of about. YAY!
I can’t wait til’ the movie comes out and the new book comes out.
Oh and by the way, is Aya like already a natural pretty or something? Because she looks pretty pretty to me already.
May 10th, 2007 13:48
I love Specials it was my favorite yet. and i cant wait for extras!!!!
May 12th, 2007 11:48
leslie, one thig to say, how the hell do u not like uglies… you can tellthat scott put a LOT of feeling and thought into the series/trilogy and it mkes total since!! whats so confusing??
May 12th, 2007 11:54
well laticia me and my friend plan on going to college to be directors and making the movies,
May 12th, 2007 12:17
idk peyton-la. i got so lost in the first book and all the characters didn’t make sense. but hey its all me not scott. hes a FANTASTIC author its just i dint get some of the books from the trilogy
May 12th, 2007 15:45
i got a bit confused but once i got into uglies i got familiar with all the poeple… i was realy confusedd about the hoverboards because i didnt realize it was set in the future lol
May 13th, 2007 12:08
I loved the other three books and was going to send you an email to request that you write more. I am so so happy you did. When do we get to read it?
May 15th, 2007 05:50
OCtobers so far away whay not june
May 15th, 2007 05:51
oH and I like Aya-wa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
May 15th, 2007 08:52
Aya-wa, Scott, Aya-wa. I’ve noticed in all the past books that there seems to be a flowing pattern for how the -la and -wa thing works. One syllable gets the -la. Two or more usually gets -wa.
And since Aya has two syllables (Jeepers, Batman, Hope can count! xDD) it seems like -wa fits better.
By the way–I still can’t wait until Extra comes out. I’m definitely preordering it soon.
May 15th, 2007 09:18
gabby=),I like that bit in specials too.Tally’s like”Hi,ping-la.”.Also I like the bit in Pretties where Tally says”Everything sucks,Shay-la.Why does everything suck?
P.S I think Aya is pronounced with a short a and I like -wa better.
May 15th, 2007 09:32
I think Scott should write RUSTIES because we seem to be living at the end of the Pre-Rusties.I mean,we don’t stuff like taht nano goo that Shay sets on the Armory.
May 19th, 2007 10:26
yes, i agree, Aya-wa. Yes, it does sound like “Iowa”, but then again, what does “Kryssi-wa” sound like? Anyway, I am SO STOKED for EXTRAS!! I thought it was done once Specials came out. OMGoshness!!!
May 19th, 2007 10:30
Yeah, so pre-ordering Extras. Does anybody know when exactly it comes out?? And Scott usually writes about what Tally becomes in that particular book, (i.e., in Pretties, Tally is pretty, etc.) and how will Taklly become a Rusty??
May 20th, 2007 06:15
Hello!
I’m SO excited for the Extras to come out! I don’t fully know how to pronounce Aya anyway… but I like Aya-la better, I like Las’ better then Was’. Can’t wait to read it! Congrats!
May 20th, 2007 06:26
Defintaly Aya-wa!
I am so excited about this book! Cool cover, and I’m sure it’s gonna be an awesom read but . . . one problam . . . the Barnes and Noble website is telling me it comes out in October??? Your kidding me right?
May 21st, 2007 02:11
well i am not sure how you pronounce aya, but about the wa and la thing… i think that wa sounds better with more simple names like aya or my friend maria.. and for a name that is a little more to pronounce and doesnt have just symple sounds to say like my naem peyton i think it would be a la… so any way i think aya-wa sounds much better because it rolls off the tongue better to me
well im finished i type to much lol
May 26th, 2007 11:37
no
May 28th, 2007 13:15
Dessometrics- yeah. thats exactly how i thought of how “La” and “wa” worked too! gr8 minds think alike i guess.
People, no offense, but Pre-ordering it now will only make you LOSE money, cuz of interest. so, yeah…preorder it like a week b4, then u can get a pack of gum with your book!
May 28th, 2007 13:18
Idk…i feel so weird ’bout liking these books, cuz my dad read Uglies and he said some stuff that really opened my eyes, and i re-read those chpts and, sure enough, he was….RIGHT…
May 29th, 2007 14:25
so i know this is really late finding out but today is my birthday and it is like the best one yet and now i am finding out there is going to be a series not just trilogy. dang you dont know how excited i am. i am like a book nerd. and last year in biology a girl was reading uglies and i was like ooh interesting and then bought one this year and got like 32187 people hooked on it too and we are all SOOO EXCITED.
yay scott. great work.
June 4th, 2007 05:54
so i guess it won’t be a trilogy any more… good!
June 4th, 2007 06:45
Aya-la. so much better. otherwise I’ll always imagine her as a hick.
yay for a series instead of a trilogy!!!!
June 4th, 2007 12:24
Aya-Wa. Definitely. It just goes much better. Kind of like the name Willis. Willis-La is kind of comfusing to say. So Willis-Wa just kind og rolls off the toungue.
June 4th, 2007 12:25
Also. Peyton-La. I finally posted a comment.. you can happy dance now.
June 5th, 2007 01:45
okay, you hve no clue how excited i am 4 this new book! I love you scott! i read your books all the time. but im not like stalker-ish. haha but i can’t wait to read it, i mean, i was literally screaming my head off when i finished (actually) all of them. even @ the end of the 3rd midnighters book. i was really mad. and sad. and surrpisingly wanting to throw all the books out the window, but i didn’t cuz they would have gotten soaked cuz it was raining.
keep up the great work!
June 5th, 2007 08:09
wat do u mean shan??????????? What are you saying that you re-read some chapters and he was right. What did your dad say? And what did you find out?????
June 7th, 2007 15:21
Kylie – My dad said a LOT of stuff. for example:
1) Tally, in Uglies, doesn’t seem to have a spine… u know, like she’s been brainwashed since birth..then she comes to the Smoke, and she changes. Everything she once believed in is washed away in, like, two weeks compared to SIXTEEN YEARS of bein’ told she’s ugly. and when David’s parents tell her about the Surg, she believes them…but she doesnt know who they REALLY were, are, ya know?
2) LESIONS?! i mean c’mon, its not like they go into their brain physically…and if it’s wrong, why keep doing it?
3) I know, Scott had a great plot line and it seemed he had the whole idea, but when it came to explaining it…he just kind of…made stuff up, and didn’t explain it very well.
These are my reasons why i feel different…agree? or not?
June 8th, 2007 04:20
yea from what you said i do agree. I like this series but some things in my mind are unexplained from the book idk. Don’t get me wrong but Scott is a fantastic author but i’m just a little confused.
June 8th, 2007 07:59
yes. my point exactly…and now, i’m not so interested. but one thing is tru, the characters make the story, doesn’t matter how fantastic or action-packed the plot-line is…its the characters that count, like, how well-developed they are, how do they change thru-out the story, ect.
June 12th, 2007 07:27
wait, is it pronounced eye-a or A-ya, like pay without the p?
June 13th, 2007 04:45
Shan, it could be in a world like that people don’t have a need for personality. I mean, if Shay didn’t run away Tally would probably be just like any other teenager. I don’t think it’s about the characters, because a little tweak in their brains can change anything. It’s about the change that one person can do from changing themselves.
*Spoiler*>>> Even Tally said so herself that she wasn’t given much choice in her life. (In Specials, I think…)
June 13th, 2007 04:46
Oh yeah, I like Aya-wa better. Sounds more Japanese.
June 13th, 2007 09:23
Aya-wa. Definatly!
June 14th, 2007 09:54
wat the h**l is extras about
June 18th, 2007 13:18
Aya-wa. (:
As for Aya “needing her own suffix”, I somewhat agree, since I don’t think either of those (-la or -wa) fit with her name. Though I do think -wa sounds better.
And not Aya-chan. Because, as far as I know of the Japanese language, -chan is a formality-title suffix. Or something like that. So, to me, it doesn’t really sound like a … “endearing” suffix. Just, well, too formal.
I cannot wait till Extras comes out. I adore the cover.
And, just for the record, I think that Specials had a great ending. I absolutely loved it. I mean, yeah, it left things hanging, but what kind of book would it be if it answered absolutely everything?? Tally and David still had lives to live, you know??
Anyways, the Uglies Trilogy is now my second favorite book series. Short only to the Chanters of Tremaris Trilogy.
Less than four months! And counting! Down. (:
June 19th, 2007 06:15
Aya-wa definitely rolls better on ur tongue ok and arlene Aya-chan r u talking about jackie chan cauz umm chan is jackie’s real last name and i agree specials had A GREAT ending but when it said final volume i was so upset but when i finished i was like what happens so im so glad extras is comin out!!!
June 21st, 2007 09:43
shan and kylie- not all books have to make sense. Even if Scott did make some of the story up, it dosen’t make the story any less exciting, to me anyways. And, i thought they really did phisically go into your brain and inswert the lesions so all of the pretties would be completely dumb. Tell me if I am wrong.
June 22nd, 2007 06:59
i dont no lindsey good question 2 ask scott
June 22nd, 2007 08:54
im pretty sure they do physically insert it into their brain when they’re having the surgery
June 22nd, 2007 09:47
Aya-wa. Just because Aya-la sounds too much like a sound than a word. You can work with Aya-wa.
I can imagine somebody saying Aya-la when trying to drown someone out.
“Aya-la, Aya-la, Aya-la. I’m not listening!”
June 22nd, 2007 10:48
im not totally sure sammie-wa i pretty sure they do insert it when they are at the total end of the surgery and alice Aya-wa does sound totally better but the only thing is it sounds like the state Iowa so… im half and half
June 23rd, 2007 07:36
Cannot wait for this book, i finished Specials 5 minutes ago. I’m the only boy who’s excited!! lol Great series
June 23rd, 2007 08:02
hey robby ur not the only boy i no TONS of boys totally excited 4 extras u should join specials spoiler thread we all talk about anything about specials or not whichever
July 3rd, 2007 13:52
I was thinking Aya-wa would work because it kind of flows when you say it out loud. but reading-wise I’d go for Aya-la. It’s easier to read and it works better.
July 4th, 2007 02:58
sarah- how do you join the spoilers thread? That sounds really cool!!!
July 4th, 2007 09:49
agree Aly-wa…..lindsey u just have 2 go to the faves section right below the uglies pic and go 2 special spoiler thread

July 4th, 2007 09:49

July 20th, 2007 04:08

J.K. Rowling.

July 31st, 2007 04:51
i LOVE LOVE LOVE the cover, and i can’t wait to hold the book close to me and read until there’s nothing left, but sadness… i hated it when i finished specail, cuz i didn’t know about extras, but now that i do know about it, i hate waiting for it to come out, but i love you for making another book in the uglies series!!! but now that your done writing the book, can u PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!!! make time fly!! make today October 2nd!!! that’s would be so totally happy-making!!!
August 15th, 2007 03:44
I couldn’t understand some parts of this article Extras Done, but I guess I just need to check some more resources regarding this, because it sounds interesting.
September 9th, 2007 07:22

October 5th, 2007 12:27
