So I’ve never had a MySpace page, but as of today the Uglies series does!
It’s called Feeling Bubbly, and you should all go be its friends. It’s lonely. Plus, Feeling Bubbly has lots of screensavers, avatars, and other assorted Uglies imagery.
Click here to go there.
In other news: Thanks to everyone who came to Fairfield Public Library today to see me! It was a really enthusiastic group with many flash tattoos, and one girl who’d written lots of nice things about me on her skin with many colors of Sharpie.
Sharpies are fun.
Also, don’t forget the all-Aussie festival this Saturday. Me with Justine, Margo Lanagan, Jonathan Strahan, and Garth Nix!

But I shall bookmark it!
Yaay! Sharpie rocks, but it smells annoying…
October 26th, 2007 13:46

all u people are hating sharpies!?!?! about time i got here and DEFENDED THE BEST MARKERS EVER!
okay? sharpies are not only fun, as indicated above, but they are awesome! fawesome even! and they don’t smell THAT bad.
also, they’re certified non-toxic. you can’t die from inhaling them. and you also can’t get high off them. i know someone who tried.
I. LOVE. SHARPIES. STOP HATING.
and the wittle bitty sharpie minis that you can put on a keychain….and silver sharpies! i love silver sharpies! all the covers of my notebooks are covered in silver sharpies.
moral of the story—SHARPIES ROCK.
as does my ur so 11:59 shirt! it’s fawesomely fool! nine kinds of kick.
October 26th, 2007 22:13
also, they make cool t-shirts and shoes. so quit whining about fumes. they rock.
October 26th, 2007 22:32
Unless a miracle occurs I can’t go to NYC. I have no ride.
Is anyone else going to be Tally or Shay for Halloween?
October 26th, 2007 22:59
hey to anyone that can answer me this,
just wondering as to how i contact scott??
so as to ask him some questions…
October 27th, 2007 02:14
Yay to sharpies! but i would haved just used the stuff to make fake tatoos. That would be better to get off. but anyways, me and a friend are supposed to be reputation bombers for halloween. (the costumes very easy) its gonna be sweet. But i think weve changed that to becoming cutters. But as always: come to SC!

Sharpies rock:!: I love the silver and gold kind.In my art class we use them alot:!: Unfornuatlly I don’t have a myspace.
I bored I didn’t go to school today cuz I’m sick but I have nobody to bug cuz they are all and school:!:
October 27th, 2007 05:31
Hey Scott are there diffinatlly going to be Uglies movies:?:
October 27th, 2007 05:37
people keep talking about the movies but he never mentions them, but some old blog posts did.
i love silver sharpies! they are so fawesome. best. markers. ever.
October 27th, 2007 05:37
they run out real fast though.
October 27th, 2007 06:02
I shan’t give any opinion on the Sharpie matter, except that Olive Green sharpies may actually be the best. markers. ever. as you say that they are. Though I always write on my skin with sharpie, and I’m still alive! At least, I am as I write this post…Who knows about after that? I mean, staph…
What a happy making myspace page! I wish I had the technology knowledge that the maker did!
Speaking of shirts, it’s almost november. The contest was in, like, july. My shirt isn’t here yet. I think that I may be alone in this. Oh, well. THe mystery of the missing shirt lives on!
October 27th, 2007 06:07
ohh my i lovee the smell of sharpies. i could sit in class all day and sniff them if my friend didnt start yelling at me that i was gonna get high. I absolutely say the silvers are the awesomest out there. but those mini ones are pretty darn cool too. I might go as a Rusty for halloween..fairly easy, no?
man no myspace..i dont like that sort of stuff. sorry feeling bubbly, i’ll just be your *imaginary* friend.
October 27th, 2007 06:12
Shausro-la, Ill be feeling bubblys imaginary friend too!
October 27th, 2007 07:11
Oh snap! That’s tomorrow? I might not be able to make it… *sadness* Oh and Scott, for some reason, my antivirus keeps running into trojans whenever I go to your blog. Just hit two right now. Stupid viruses. D:
October 27th, 2007 07:54
Hi again, Scott!
That Sharpies girl was freaking hilarious, I love how at the beginning when you first walked in she was like, “I love you, Scott! I love you!!”
Actually, it’s weird, cuz I was thinking of doing that but decided against it. And I’m not even being sarcastic; I’m serious.
Also, I thought that yesterday’s entry was today’s, cuz I just realized now that the blog’s set in Aussie time. So I’m going to copy & paste my comment from there to here in case you didn’t see it, cuz I’d like you to. Ain’t the right-click button grand??
Anyway, here it is:
Hey Scott! It’s Olivia from the Fairfield reading today. I’m the one who asked how you got your 1st book published. You know how you said I might be too young to be looking for a literary agent? Well, I’m actually trying to get my 1st novel published. I’m sending my novel to an interested agent tomorrow. I meant to say that when you signed my book, but I forgot. Anyway, it was great seeing you and you were really awesome in person.
Olivia
PS. When I said what your picture looked like, I didn’t mean it in a bad way!!! I just meant that, well, it looks all mad and depressed, and you didn’t seem that way in person. SO sorry if it sounded offensive or anything. Really, it’s a compliment, cuz you’re mean in the picture and awesome in person. ;]
Rereading it now, I realize what a dork I am.
How’s Scooter?
October 27th, 2007 07:59
I like sharpies and i think they smell good! On the other side, they bleed, alot. Ok, but, that is an awesome MySpace, i dont have a MySpace, Im not allowed to and honestly i dont want to, i dont want to be addicted to another website. O and i love the secong midnighters so much better, it is so good, i am sure im gonna finish it this weekend!
October 27th, 2007 08:00

but still, thats nice!
October 27th, 2007 08:09
so fawesome scott!
October 27th, 2007 08:10
Book signings = 45 minutes of standing in a line doing nothing with lots of anticipation and boredom (not that I’ve actually ever been to one with an author i’d actually heard of before the signing)
Sharpies = 30 minutes of fun.
Uglies = countless hours of sitting around reading in the last weekend before school ends, forgetting about all the exams I have (I read them in May).
Midnighters = countless hours sitting around reading with tons of anticipation and nervous-making moments. Not to mention all the frustrating interruptions. (I just finished BLUE NOON at school today – the ending made me cry
I felt like such a dork)
So Yesterday = A great few hours where being sick is forgotten as i am pulled into the story.
Myspace = lots of lag, ads, and predators looking for victims. Which is why, never in a million years, will i create a Myspace.
sorry for this brain-missingly long post. I’ll try to trim it down at little next time. But it’s better than posting 3 in row like I usually do, right?
October 27th, 2007 08:11
i agree with sophie-la, come to ga!
October 27th, 2007 08:12
allie, i didnt have school today. three day weekend!

October 27th, 2007 08:38
My school doesn’t have any good books:!: But Scott you should come to Southern California. Although maybe not right now cuz we have like 27 fires and only about 13 are under control. Not over where I live though.
October 27th, 2007 08:56

October 27th, 2007 09:00

oh my gosh. i have been trying to figure out a costume for halloween this year and i haven’t found anything that i don’t have to spend a lot of money on. but i just had a fawsome idea!!! i’m breaking out the sharpies and i’m going to be SPECIAL! i’m excited now. i might have to be a special with fangs though because i just bought some amazing fangs that look real. well this made my night! thanks for the great idea! if anyone has any tips to make is look awesome, i’m up for suggestions!
October 28th, 2007 00:21
fangs rock! wat r the other specials doing? at one point it was like everyone was gonna be one, but then they all flaked out. i’m sticking with my melissa costume.
i suggest the special circumastances/i don’t want to hurt you shirts from wearable extras, like drawing fake scars on ur arms, lots of fake flash tattoos, and all-black combatwear.
October 28th, 2007 01:09
Ya, if i wanted someone to track me down and start stalking me i would get a MySpace, but sense im not a big fan of Stalkers id rather not! O, and i have gone to see a Author, accualy like 2 weeks ago, Her name was Gabrielle Zevin, the author of Elsewhere and Memiors of a teenage Amnesiac (Which i read) and got it sighed, there was only like 20 ppl since it was a small book store and she just talked then sighed and i was 3rd person. So it was petty cool.
October 28th, 2007 01:18
yeah, that’s sorta why i don’t want one either.
oooh, i read those books. both are in the small lists of ones that made me cry. my theory is gabrielle zevin could write a book about rainbows and puppies that would make people cry. she’s just that good.
October 28th, 2007 01:46
i have no idea what 2 be 4 halloween from one of scott-la’s books!! i mean, my mom said that i had 2 buy the “special circumstances” shirt with my own money, but believe u me, i dont have a money tree in my back yard!!!! hmm…let me think…..i could be an extraterrestriul (how the heck do u spell that?) from extras, except i dont really like the idea of undergoing major plastic surgery……to be a pretty, i dont really think i have big eyes, full lips, a symmetrical face and all that…..an ugly/extra
all i know is that they have dorm jackets, i have no idea what kind of pants they wear or nething
hmmmm…..maybe i could be an aya, put a little moggle on a stick, and make a dorm jacket
URGH
that is such a random idea!!!
hmmmm….4 melissa, i could wear black pants and shirt and long black gloves
wut about dess
i could have like black pants and shirt and carry around metal weapons w/thirteen letter words?

well, i could maybe do that
hmmm…..ill think bout it….
hmm….wut about melissa dess or jess
hmmmm……midnighters aren’t really the easiest of persons to dress up as…..then again, neither is tally-wa or shay-la or aya-chan…..hmmm…..i have an idea
remember how croy came 2 the valentino party as a wolf w/like a gray silk cape thingey imitating a special to give tally the pills
if ne1 has a good scott-la book idea, i NEED THE HELP
-Riderchild-wa
October 28th, 2007 01:48
hmmm…long post….
neways, i think i might have 2 be a money-spending special……
-Riderchild-wa
October 28th, 2007 03:25
You could always make your own specials shirt.
Buy a cheap t-shirt and use a ShARpIe ???
Or thoes printable t-shirt iron-on transfer sheet things. Thoes look pretty good.
I make one that looked like the one you could buy because I found a VERY similar vont. Can’t tell the difference.
I wanna make a Midnighters t-shirt next.
Workin on designing it though. I want it to be totally mind-boggling when it is done, so i keep telling my self NOT to RuSH.
October 28th, 2007 03:45
what kind of midnighters shirt are you making, laura-la?
and i’m doing the melissa costume—u r so 11:59 shirt with optional homemade bixby high school sweatshirt, red long sleeved thermal, black gloves, jeans, sneakers, a black backpack, sunglasses and big headphones. pretty easy.
what t-shirt did u make with the similar font?
iron-ons are okay, but after a couple washes they start to crinkle and stuff. which is why i prefer making sweatshirts and other stuff u don’t wash as much.
sharpies 4ever! they don’t wash out.
i’m working on an epic tithe shirt….with waaay too much effort being spent on the graphic.
October 28th, 2007 10:11
ok i’m going to make a shirt with Special Circumstances on the front and on the back in smaller writing it will say, i don’t want to hurt you but i will if i have to. like the shirts sold here..if i had enough time i would order one and just wear that but i only have 3 days! it’s going to be a black shirt with the iron on transfer. then i will wear all black. the thing i’m having a hard time with is the flash tattoos. i want them to look like the “real” thing, but i’m not a great artist. maybe i’ll use eyeliner to mark it out then use that black face paint gunk and fill it in. well thanks everyone for your suggestions!!
October 29th, 2007 08:39
amanda: i live in a tourist town, so my parents own a couple of clothes/souvenir stores, so i got my black s/s shirt free of charge from there, of course.
i made a stencil that reads “Special Circumstances” using microsoft word & then printed it on photo paper, cut out the letters, and right now i’m getting ready to use silver fabric spray-paint stuff.
the crash bracelets came from coating two old glow bracelets that have long since burned out and wrapping them in tinfoil, i’ll do something else too but i haven’t thought of it yet.
i’m gonna do almost thesame thing you are for the facial flash tattoos: black eyepencil to outline, then black liquid eyeliner over it.
HALLOWEEN IS GONNA ROCK!!!
special circumstances smiley says it’s gonna be ICY!
October 30th, 2007 03:47
cool
