This is going to be a big year for me. Leviathan is my first new series to come out since Uglies appeared way back in . . . 2005!
For you ancient history buffs, the first books of both Midnighters and my so-called “New York Trilogy” (So Yesterday, Peeps, and TLD) appeared in 2004. So it has been a long time . . .
Anyway, here’s what happens this year:
April 28 (a mere 3 weeks away!)
The paperback edition of Extras is released! Now, at long last, you can line up all four books in matching editions. You can pre-order now, from Amazon, Powell’s, B&N, or Indie Bound.
The cool thing about the Extras paperback is that it contains previously unseen chapters from Leviathan, complete with delicious artwork!
May 1
Starting in May, the first of every month will be Leviathan Art Day. That’s right, I’ll be blogging one piece of art every month until the book comes out.
But don’t worry. You won’t be utterly spoiled by this, because there are FIFTY (50) pieces of art in the first book of Leviathan. So much art.
Be prepared for the artiness!
May 30
Advanced readers’ copies for Leviathan are given out at Book Expo America! And I’ll be there to sign them. (To those of you not in the book trade, this is merely frustraing, I know. But it’s cool for me.)
June 2 (minor update)
Mind-Rain, an anthology of essays about the Uglies series, appears in stores! Here’s the cover:
August 1
The Geektastic anthology goes on sale! Edited by Holly Black and Cecil Castellucci, this collection includes stories by M.T. Anderson, Libba Bray, Cassandra Clare, Tracy Lynn, Cynthia and Greg Leitich Smith, David Levithan, Kelly Link, Barry Lyga, Wendy Mass, Garth Nix, Lisa Yee, Sara Zarr, and me. We’re all writing about the geeky proclivities that made us who we are, from role-playing games to Quizbowl.
It’s going to rock, geekily.
August 21-25-ish (minor update)
Justine and I will be at the Melbourne Writers Festival!
October 6
The publication of Leviathan!
This is, of course, the big day for me. I’ve been working on this book for four years (I started it before I started Extras) so it will be mind-bendingly exciting.
Along with the book will come a world-spanning tour. (Well, spanning from the US to the UK, Canada, and Australia.) For three weeks or so, I’ll be traveling around and meeting you guys in person. I don’t know yet where I’m headed exactly, but watch this space in August and September for details.
More about Leviathan in later posts, of course.
Astonishingly, you can already pre-order it from Amazon and Indie Bound, but B&N and Powell’s don’t have it yet.
October 28
The release of the Grand Unified Edition of the Uglies Series, also known as The Collector’s Set. It looks like this:
Pretty, is it not?

I am SO psyched for the art. I’m a total art geek. Speaking of geeky stuff, I’m buying the geektastic anthology(is that what it’s really called?? AMAZING.) as soon as it comes out. Leviathan too! It comes out a day before my birthday! *starts hyperventilating* Ohmygoshohmygosh. Scott-la, I am crossing my fingers and doing everything lucky and like praying that you’ll come to California. Maybe San Francisco? That’s a big city, and it’s close enough so I could come! My life would be complete…
Lizzy-wa, try emailing!

April 7th, 2009 11:31
I can’t wait for Leviathan!!!!!!!! And I hope this tour comes somewhere close to me!!! I always miss book signings, and that makes me sad.
But I would be very, very, very happy if I could go to one of Scott-la’s signings. 
Wow, Lizzy-wa, that’s a lot of comments for a post that was, like, just published.
April 7th, 2009 12:16
Scott, I have one wish in my life. FOR YOU TO COME TO SAN ANTONIO!!! Really! I’ve begged enough, so that’s enough. Lol. And the boxed set is cool!!! Hehe. I’m going to work on my Zazzle stuff now, ok guys?
April 7th, 2009 12:17

I only have uglies&pretties… I’ll hold off on getting the other two for a lil while
April 7th, 2009 13:53
OH MY GOD! OH MY GOD! SO EXCITED AND HYPER CAUSE LEVIATHAN WILL BE SO AMAZING AND I JUST GOT HOME FROM SCHOOL CAUSE IT’S HELL WEEK FOR THE MUSICAL AND I’M WORKING TECH AND IN CHARGE OF HAIR AND IN IT AND I LEFT EARLY BUT IT’S SO MUCH FUN AND WE ARE ALL FRICKIN CRAZY CAUSE WE VOLINTARILY (SP) STAY AT SCHOOL UNTIL LIKE 10 AND WE GO CRAZY WITH MAKE UP AND PAINT WARS AND OMG I NEED TO CALM DOWN!
April 7th, 2009 14:24
Canada! That means I can make up for missing you last time you were in Toronto (and you have to come to Toronto again).
Don’t forget about Mind Rain! I know Leviathian is the big thing but I’m totally stoked for Mind Rain. I don’t actually read many teen authors’ work, so I’m hoping Mind Rain will give me a few leads to follow, as well as awesome stuff about Uglies.
If the first chapter of Leviathian from Bogus to Bubbly is any indication of how awesome the rest of the series will be, it’ll be awesome.
April 7th, 2009 14:33
Lizzy-wa=extremely obnoxious. I mean really Lizzy-wa i know your the ultimate Scott fangirl but repetitive posts in all caps is not ok.
But yes it is very exciting btw: http://scottwesterfeld.com/blog/?p=208
Do they always have a set amount of days before a book comes out that you can pre-order it? first time you told us we could pre-order Extras April 3, this post April 7. Release of Extras October 2(2007), release of Leviathan October 6. I do believe there is a correlation.
I also plan on pre-ordering it.
April 7th, 2009 14:42
extremely obnoxious?$!#@^!U*I!*%!#& wat the crap! u cant call me that unless u r to?????? that WAS NOT OBNOXIOUS! WHO IN THE HELLIBET GIVES U THE RITE TO SAY THAT!??

April 7th, 2009 14:52

Also, Amy~la aka The Tobi etc, etc and whoever else is confused: me, Lizzy-wa, and Tally&Zane made a kingdom of Westerfeldiness. I am the top ninja, Lizzy-wa is the royal advisor, Tally&Zane is the ninja faery princess.
so that’s what Lizzy-wa is talking about in all that caps up there.
join our kingdom, guys!
April 7th, 2009 15:13
ah, lizzy-wa did a better job of explaining the kingdom than i did. ignore mine. XP
Lizzy-wa, i have never consumed a soda. or coffee. ever. And nobody wants me to.
April 7th, 2009 15:18
Nice explanations Haley-sensei. Shiz…the ninja fary princess has a majorrrrrrrr headache and my throat hurts. I bet I’m getting sick again, GAWSH I’m always sick…I’m so tired, it’s not even funny. So I shall retire to my bed and crash after I take some tylenol. Nite!
April 7th, 2009 15:19
And Lizzy-wa’s explanation too. Adiossssssss.
April 7th, 2009 15:25
Noo! the ninja faery princess is sick!!
Go sleep the heck out of your sickness.
OOH i just got an idea…
should we move all this kingdomness to a website instead of reposting it all every 20 comments or so?
April 7th, 2009 15:27
I can’t wait to see all the art!!! Ugh, I’ve been waiting to read the rest of Leviathan ever since the preview in Bogus To Bubbly!!
April 7th, 2009 15:35

April 7th, 2009 15:44

April 7th, 2009 15:47
i think its totally awsome!!! want me to start one then give u the pass word and stuff so we could make it!!! and u should get a westerfeldian role player thing. in the role play thing im jess~!

??????????
April 7th, 2009 20:01
First thing first…that’s a incredibly busy year! I hope that you will take care of your health!
Secondly, I am not surprised but still, I wish that Mr. Westerfeld could just come to Singapore… >.<
I have been wanting to get the Midnighters series…since my birthday is coming, maybe I should just ask my friends to get me some book vouchers so that I can get them. LOL!
I am incredibly excited about the release for Leviathan and the The Collector’s Set as well! I had been planning to get the UGLIES Boxed Set but looks like I just have to wait for this version now!
I have one question though and anyone who’s knows the answer to it are welcome to answer!
I doubt that there’s the extra content installed in the UGLIES Boxed Set can be found in The Collector’s Set. However, what’s the “Exculsive Content” actually in the UGLIES Boxed Set? Can it be found in Bogus to Bubbly? If so, is there any difference in it?
Many thanks in advance! =D

April 7th, 2009 20:51
‘SO YESTERDAY’ IS PART OF THE PEEPS SERIES!!!
WAH!I haven’t even READ IT YET!!
OR HTDYF!
*curls up and cries in corner*
Damn British bookstores….damn you all……
April 7th, 2009 21:57

That’s forever
a little unhappy-making
LEVIATHAN
LEVIATHAN
LEVIATHAN!!!
April 7th, 2009 23:27
Ahhh, if only the box set had come out earlier…I bought all the books individually…it’s okay though, ’cause Mr. Westerfeld signed Specials…:D
April 8th, 2009 00:14
THATS SO AMAZINGLY SPIFF!
April 8th, 2009 02:40
!!! It’s published on my birthday! FREAKING AWESOME
April 8th, 2009 03:10
Haley~Hyperness and Lizzy-wa, I was actually thinking of suggesting a blog or something for the Westerfeldian kingdom thing last night. Kind of weird that we were thinking the same thing. o_O
April 8th, 2009 03:14
ZOMGEE!… LEVIATHAN!!… UK!!!… breatthe, breathe
April 8th, 2009 04:33
I’m so looking forward to October now! And the first day of every month. This is going on my calendar today.
April 8th, 2009 05:25
haha me too
April 8th, 2009 05:55
cant wait for august 1st
April 8th, 2009 05:56
btw i changed my name from kay-la to kay-la the ninja banana cat just in case you’re dumb enough not to figure that out…hey we should make a website on free webs or something for the kingdom
April 8th, 2009 06:49
The cover for Mind Rain is fascinating!
Can’t wait for Leviathan!
April 8th, 2009 07:00
SOOO EXCITED FOR EVERYTHING COMING UP IN THE NEW YEAR SCOTT-LA!!!!! ESPECIALLY MIND-RAIN AND LEVITHAN!!! HOPE I GET TO MEET YOU AGAIN WITH LEVITHAN (I MET YOU THE FIRST TIME THE DAY EXTRAS CAME OUT TWO YEARS AGO.)
April 8th, 2009 07:52
I for one don’t think that So Yesterday is part of the Peeps series. If you look on the main site they both have completely different sections and are listed seperately under his bibliography. The only thing they have in common is being set in New York, hence why Scott said “so called “New-York-Trilogy” in quotation marks. They’re a trilogy in setting only.
April 8th, 2009 09:16
I sure hope you come to Vancouver
that would be so fawesome
April 8th, 2009 10:14
The Mind Rain cover looks interesting, that is something I’ll have to pick up when i get the chance. And of course, I’m waiting so anxiously for Leviathan. I just wish I had something to hold me over for a couple of months
April 8th, 2009 10:20
Is there any way you could come remotely close to Wisconsin again, like you did for Extras? No author ever comes within a hundred miles of where I live, with the exception of Stephenie Meyer two years ago… when I was in Colorado… lameness.
And, guys? Not to be a know-it-all pain, but could you please control the posts at least a little? I love excitement/fangirl adoration as much as the next person (you should see me every Saturday when Doctor Who comes on), and getting to socialize with people who share the same interests in literature is definitely a plus…… but several dozen posts that could be narrowed down to just one or two? Not so much.
April 8th, 2009 10:24
You. Peoples. Talk. Too. Much.
April 8th, 2009 10:29
k so i changed my name. you guys still know who i am though, i’m assuming.
hehe that we do, Andrea-la, that we do.
April 8th, 2009 10:35
Okay, my wicked shweet healing powers worked a bit and I feel a little better. AWESOME idea for the website!
April 8th, 2009 10:41
Haha I like December. That’s what I feel llike doing right now!
April 8th, 2009 10:42
Can somebody fill me in on what you guys are talking about?
April 8th, 2009 10:55
ok pplz pay atencion!!! ok me and zane&tally desiced to make a kingdom. we need more ppl so plz tell me wat u want to be. we can once a gain say twilight and harry potter but we cant say anything bad about then! have a q? ask me!
April 8th, 2009 10:56
also were talking about scott-la’s post! blog thing!
April 8th, 2009 10:59
Andrea-la:
in a spurt of total randomness, me, Lizzy-wa and Tally&Zane founded a kingdom called Westertopia. (that’s the name, right?)
and so i’m the top ninja.
lizzy is the royal advisor.
tally&zane is a ninja faery princess (with kick-butt healing powers, apparently)
and there’s a few others, don’t remember what you guys are specifically, i missed those comments.
there’s a banana cat and sorceress somewhere in there, though.
and we’re gonna move it all to a website instead of clogging the comment threads.
oh yeah and all the peasants have hoverboards.
April 8th, 2009 11:02
Haley-sensei: Sounds cool. Can I join this spurt of randomness?
April 8th, 2009 11:05
of course!
pick a job. or join my team of ninjas. or something.
April 8th, 2009 11:05

April 8th, 2009 12:19
There are a lot of new comments, but it appears I haven’t missed much. How many more times is the whole kingdom thing going to be explained?

April 9th, 2009 08:56
k can i add you or no? if so i will im you so you know my sn
April 9th, 2009 09:06
Woahs. Today was awesome. Have you guys heard of the Every 15 Minutes program thingy? It’s where they go to highschools(only for the juniors and seniors though, grr.) and depict an alcohol related car accident and they have crashed up cars and choose students to act it all out before anybody knows about it and the fire department, emts, and police are involved and they even have a helicopter come and medi-flight one of the students in the “accident” to the hospital and they take one to jail and the other “dies” I think and all day you see a grim reaper taking juniors and seniors out of their classes every 15 minutes and nobody knows who’ll be next and random tombstones pop up all over the classes with peoples names on them. It’s really creepy, but amazing cuz it opens your eyes.
April 9th, 2009 09:18
Whoo!!! I’m 9 hits away from reaching the big 1,000 mark!!!!! Whoo!!!
April 9th, 2009 09:21
That sounds interesting, T&Z. But I find it kind of sad that they have to resort to things like that to raise awareness about the consequences of drunk driving. People should just know things like that.
April 9th, 2009 09:27
Wow, that sounds fun and cool, T&Z! And Lizzy-wa, it is called Westertopia! And I know that everyone’s not doing it! And it’s Yola, not Yalo! And Yola is the same thing as Synthasite, they just have so many users they changed their name to be easier to remember and use! CALM DOWN!! The world isn’t all about you! And I said that if people like your site better, we’ll go with that one! Gosh! I’m just showing you my opinion of how I think this should work! Sheesh…………….
April 9th, 2009 09:33
I do agree with ya, Dahila-wa etc, it is kindya sad… like the other day I heard people (Girls, BTW) talking about like a gang party or somethin where you get free weed, free all kinds of bad stuff that I didn’t catch. I was like, come on, Vanessa! Only dumb, retarted people would do that! And apperantly you have to get jumped to go to it… it’s like, you guys are sooooo retarted! That stuff is what stupid people do, not people who want to have a good life. I was so mad. And apperantly Vannessa was drunk or under the influence or something the other day too last period, cuz I heard her say that to someone… I had no idea she did that kind of stuff. I mean, she has like 0 self confedince, cuz every test in the 2 periods I have her with, she’s all like “oh, I’m ready to fail!” I’m like, come on. You can do better. If you only tried to pass instead of just having that attitude…
April 9th, 2009 09:41
Oh My gosh, I know. I stay away from people like that. There’s tons of people who do things like that. I swear it’s every other student at least. They’re either in a gang, on drugs, smoke, drink, or just plain screw around by like vandalizing or doing illegal crap. It’s really freaky hearing them talk about stuff they do. Before I just thought it was all talk, that they didn’t really do it. But a lot of times they actually do.
April 9th, 2009 09:44
WHOO!!!!! I HAVE OVER 1,000 HITS!!!!!!!!! This is a big day in Eclectic Mind history.
April 9th, 2009 09:52

April 9th, 2009 11:11
Mmmmm…. I’m eatin dinner right now! I have my laptop at the table lol
April 9th, 2009 11:11
Bless my ancestor’s souls…Italian food is just plain heaven….Lmao.
April 9th, 2009 11:12
Nice. I’m eating in my room at the computer. Thanksgiving is like the only time we ever eat at the table.
April 9th, 2009 11:24
I’m writing another storrryyyyyy. And I’m so happy with it right now. Sorry, just had to say that.
April 9th, 2009 11:37
Really? I’m not allowed to even bring food upstairs, unless there’s a good reason. Especially not in my room… we eat at the breakfast table. We only eat in the dinning room on rare special occasions, including Thanksgiving. Actually, we like never even do that! Lately we’ve been just moving the couches out of the living room and combining the 2 tables and just eat together with our guests there. It’s cool! We’re probably going to do that with Easter, too… for Christmas we go to a friends house for dinner… IDK why I’m even saying this stuff… lol
April 9th, 2009 11:41
Where are you writing your story? Cuz I’m writing my novel on a site called WEbook, where like you can write chapters and stuff and submit them for feedback from the other members of WEbook… and you can have friends join your project, too! And, if your story is good enough, and everyone votes on it, you can even get it PUBLISHED!!! How cool is that? I still like doing it on word, because it’s cool, like I love doing the cover page and all that…. I’m going to like write it in both! Hehe…. Oh, the site is http://www.webook.com. You can find me- I’m Alexwa. That’s where I am like everywhere, lol
April 9th, 2009 13:09
k so can someone fill me in on the website happenings? i got on the westerblog too late last night >.>
April 9th, 2009 13:32

LEVIATHON!!! AHHHA canttt wait =]]]
April 9th, 2009 13:40
Thanks for visiting my blog, Kay-la the ninja banana cat!!!!
I should really stop watching Supernatural. It’s so disturbing!!! And disgusting!!! It’s much more violent than it used to be. D:
April 9th, 2009 13:50
I’m just writing it on my own. On like microsoft word on my comp. That sounds really cool though, Alex-wa, I’ll check it out! Hi Haley-Sensei! Ummmmm….email lizzy-wa or alex-wa about the site, I have to get off soon so not a ton of time for me to explain!
April 9th, 2009 14:02
Kay-la the ninja banana cat it’s not that I would be annoyed by one fan-girltastic caps filled comment, but the repetitiveness is just obnoxious. And don’t be so offended by an opinion. In other words “simma down”
*mutters*westerblog commenters=changed*mutters*
April 9th, 2009 14:02
kz so like alex got the site started. shel send u the info latter. the 3 of us +alex are going to run the site for the kingdom.
April 9th, 2009 14:04
gr! if u start calling me obnixious angain for NO BIG REASON than i dont know.
April 9th, 2009 14:09
Its not a big reason. I’m not calling you obnoxious again it’s the general hypothetical situation there may be no correlation to the real one. Also, it was really JUST a comment there is no real need to take offense to it.
April 9th, 2009 14:10
kz………………………..
April 9th, 2009 14:19

NAME CONTEST? wat. in confused.
April 9th, 2009 14:33
lizzy-wa101102, we were never bad. And since I don’t seem to have a choice i guess i would be a lurker(or something to that extent) because i have been reading this blog since this post http://scottwesterfeld.com/blog/?p=186 (i like to be precise) and i rarely ever comment anymore.
April 9th, 2009 14:36
u can make up something if u want! u could be a flying bubble haeded prettie that had spiky hair if u want!
April 9th, 2009 14:41

April 9th, 2009 14:44
Woahs Haddy-la, you beat me barely! I started coming on here like mid December in 2007.
April 9th, 2009 14:46
Lizzy-wa, I’m having a contest to name two characters in one of my books. There are going to be two winners, and their names will be in the acknowledgements or dedication of the book (I’ll post those on my blog even if it’s not published).
I need a boy name and a girl name. Check out the post for the rules and entry info (click my name).
April 9th, 2009 14:47
Ah, not 07. 06 I think.
April 9th, 2009 14:55
Dahlia-wa, I entered. But I’m not the greatest at choosing names…
April 9th, 2009 14:55
MANGA HEAD EXPLOSIVE GOO!!

April 9th, 2009 14:58

Just joking.

April 9th, 2009 15:52

April 9th, 2009 15:58
wow, i can’t say that for mine. mine goes…to the middle of my thigh, i guess. i don’t have it without a braid very often.
April 9th, 2009 16:04
wow i used to have mine in a braid all the time to.
April 10th, 2009 03:04
First: Thanks for entering, T&Z!!! I liked the name you came up with.
Second: How can you guys stand to have your hair that long?!?!?!?! I hate it when my hair touches my shoulders, it’s so annoying!!! That’s why I try to keep my hair short (speaking of, I should probably get it cut again).
April 10th, 2009 04:44
wuts leviathan about?
April 10th, 2009 04:44
i cant stand it short. its feels weired to me ’cause im so used to it long. but i hate braids now.

The dahlias are sprouting!!!!!!! Whoo!!!!! I hope they don’t decide to die.
How goes the website building???
April 10th, 2009 09:50
Oh wows, my hair is like 2 inches past my shoulders. I think short hair is pretty awesome on certain people, but I can’t stand it on me. Thanks Dahlia-wa! LMAO. It’s so funny when you’re talking about dahlias and that’s your name on here…it’s like Whaaa??? Is she speaking in 3rd person again? Oh no!
April 10th, 2009 11:30
T&Z, Dahlia-wa doesn’t speak in third person. That’s just crazy! Teehee!
April 10th, 2009 11:55
I’m so excited about this post! I’m vastly excited about the Geektastic anthology! I read one of M.T. Anderson’s books, and it was amazing. I love anthologies because they’re like little taste-tests of other authors writing. October 6th! *cough-michigan-michigan-michigan-michigan-michigan-michigan-cough* Tour! (I’m looking forward to december) The Uglies Collectors edition is B-E-A-utiful. I’m excited for the art. So so so so excited. New reason to look forward to may–ART!!
Holly-wa: I don’t know if this was answered yet, but So Yesterday isn’t part of the Peeps series, it’s just they’re all set in NY.
I’m so excited now, I don’t know how I’m going to sleep.
Dahlia-wa Black Winged Ninja Sorceress, Alex-wa, Tally&Zane: This is why we should have a Pretty world, because no one would be dumb and drink n’ drive. (comment #22_)
Also, whoa on the comments. It’s taking forever for the page to load.
Haley-Sensei~TOP NINJA: (your guy’s names keep getting longer.) Wow! Your hair sounds long! I’m over here like ‘My hair’s so long blah blah blah’ and it’s barely middle of my back. *bows down* : D
Peace!
April 10th, 2009 12:31
Haley~Hyperness is ICY
Haley-Sensei~TOP NINJA
hm, it got longer by one letter XD
hehe even people who’ve seen my hair in the braid millions of times FREAK OUT when i let it down…same thing happens if i wear a dress (these things happen once anually, usually)
at 8th grade graduation both happened at once…my friend nearly had a heart-attack.
ok guys…i’m out of the loop here…SOMEONE post our website on here or email it to me!
please?
April 10th, 2009 13:08
We don’t have elementary school and middle school graduations where I’ve lived, just High school graduations… I wish we did, though, cuz that sounds cool… my hair used to be long, but I get it cut every few years to donate to Locks of Love.
April 10th, 2009 14:24
alex-wa: i donated my hair to locks of love! 15 in. but its still in my closet…
anyway the collectors set of uglies is sooo awesome.
i wantz it.
i remember my elementary skool graduation. i wore a white dress with black floral print and my hair in an (awesome) side pony. i like side ponys.
April 10th, 2009 15:17

April 10th, 2009 23:25

April 10th, 2009 23:27

April 11th, 2009 00:49

April 11th, 2009 02:32
The collectors set is super-pretty!Also matching editions – v. important. And Geektastic looks good, wish it had a John Green story though.

April 11th, 2009 17:06
Ha my spring break was a long time ago… we have today off (Friday) because… oh, wait, it just turned 1, so yesterday we had off… it was Good Friday for most of the world (Except for Orthodox christians because we use the old calender, which at times can be very annoying), and in SA we have a like HUGE catholic population, so like we get Good Friday off… it’s cool, even I don’t celebrate it today, but oh well…
April 11th, 2009 17:08
When you go on tour for the release of Leviathan, please please PLEASE come to Las Vegas! I would die of happiness!
I can’t wait for it! Or the release of the Uglies anthology! I’m so excited!!!
April 11th, 2009 18:32
Oh wow, it’s soooooo late, like 2:30… why do I stay up this late on weekends? lol anyways… I’m going to bed, I just want to let ya’ll know that I just added the HON shirt to my Zazzle, and changed one or two around a bit… so, ya… check them out! Again, there’ll be more, lots more, I just have to work on designs… and just so ya’ll know, not all of my stuff is going to be about books, some stuff will be about… IDK, just other stuff and things like that… so ya…
April 12th, 2009 00:44
Speaking of Zazzle, I should really add to my gallery. I’ve had a bunch of other designs in mind since before I started, I just haven’t gotten around to making them.
I thought I would have missed more than I did. I mean, I was gone a whole day! I think there are only, like, 14 new comments.
April 12th, 2009 01:08
Ha, lmao. Riva-la that’s genius! John’s Mildy Interesting Pizza? And it’s so true…Well I’m up and I’m SOOOOO tired! But I’m sposed to be getting ready to go! I remember when I was little, I collected sea shells and this one time I found like the prettiest ones ever but my bag of them was full so I stuck them in my pocket but it turned out they still were home to some lovely lil crabs and they started crawling around in my pocket and scared the hell-o kitty outta me…good times, good times…
April 12th, 2009 04:16
Lol, T&Z, haha! Since I stayed up sooooo late, I just woke up. At 12. Hey, once I woke up at 1! When I saw the time I was like hooola crap, is it reaaaaly this late?!?! Yep. I’m on the computer so I can tell mi padres that I’ve been on it, and reading my book, too. So they won’t know that I’ve actually woken up so late! I’ll say… that I woke up at 10 ish. Yup, that sounds reasonable. Wow, it’s so sad how I can lie to my parents just like that…. I only lie about small things, like this, and not to often at all, so I guess it’s not too bad…
April 12th, 2009 05:44
My spring break was… well, I guess now it’s two weeks ago. D: But last night I went to a concert as a present to myself for turning sixteen. So it’s all good.
April 12th, 2009 06:31

Haven’t been on in a while, though.

Is that marrisa cooper on the cover? Aka mischa Barton?
New to blog! So hi LOL
April 13th, 2009 08:20
As excited about Levianth as I am, I have to say that I can’t WAIT for that Geektastic anothology! In a small town full of wanna-be’s, any reasurance that I’m not the only one who prefers role-playing to rumor-spreading is much appreciated.
April 13th, 2009 08:53
ah! Levianthan published on my birthday <3 what an awesome present
Can’t wait to see the art posts! And good luck 
April 13th, 2009 08:56
i know right?!
April 13th, 2009 09:04
no you are NOT the only one who prefers role-playing to rumor-spreading, Name-la…
April 13th, 2009 09:09
lolz
April 14th, 2009 16:03
OMG SCOTTS coming to MELB! Im soo exited, i missed him last time! Im gonna start bugging my school librarian to arrange it already- WOOT!
April 15th, 2009 01:28
Make sure Leviathan is released on a Kindle version. I find that I’m completely unable to read books on anything but my iPhone now.
I’m excited for the new book!
April 15th, 2009 04:05
i want a kindle! they seem so cool!
May 7th, 2009 23:38
Yeah, Kindles seem awesome. But they are super expensive. I would rather just get the book. Speaking of books I can’t wait to get the Uglies Pretties Specials Exras one giant book thingie!!!!!! It’s da bomb!!!!
May 8th, 2009 06:15
I was just wondering why the Extras cover is on the whole box set….just wondering.
May 12th, 2009 15:34
OMG!!! i absolutly loved this series more than practically everything else ive read. I got it last year when i still needed reading points so i decided just to get it so i earned my points… I LOVED IT!!! i think it would be amazing if you like made a prequel to everything. Starting with what made the whole uglies/pretties thing begin. It could talk about how the rusty world fell apart (other than war)
luv ur books!
May 20th, 2010 06:04
