March 17th, 2010 11:11
Lool. I got scared too but maybe just cause it’s march break and we nerdy readers (in other words me) stay at home all day doing nothing….
Anyways I love the cover but I still like the American one better…Although I like the this models hair better….
……..
And oh shit. It’s like 2:40 am over here I’m going to sleep…..
March 17th, 2010 20:35
haha. itskinda cool cause it looks like tally has no body; like just a floating head xD (or is it just me?)
March 17th, 2010 23:28
Wow, I love the cover! (Anyone know where a USA kid can get that version of Uglies?) The chat sounds icy!
March 18th, 2010 06:38
but…but…but…the girl on the cover isnt really ugly?
March 18th, 2010 06:48
oh mi genius i obviously missed something! who is the chick hugging in the cover????????
March 18th, 2010 07:09
Thank you for chatting with us today, Scott! We very much appreciate your time with readergirlz this month, especially with the time difference tonight/today.
Viva la Portugal!
March 18th, 2010 17:44
I want that cover. End of story.
March 18th, 2010 21:15
Hey Scott –
So a lot of us are writers, and while you did have a very productive and helpful month a while ago to give us tips about writing, I was wondering if you could give us more information on finding an agent and getting published?
Maybe you could share your own story of when an agent first decided to represent you, or when a publisher decided they were going to publish what seems to be your best seller, Uglies?
I’d love to know about all the work you put into your books, if you let any one help and edit for you (they say that another pair of eyes finds things better than just one!), and your feeling while you were sending out queries to agents.
It’s just a thought – I’d love to know more!
Thanks!
p.s., no luck on my book yet – but right now I’m re-reading it, re-editing it, and one of my friends is also helping me point out things I need to change and such. I plan on rewriting my query and re-sending out my story as brand-new and never-before-seen.
March 19th, 2010 07:04
I am SOOOOO MAD right now. I missed the chat by a freaking half hour. I’m such an idiot. GAAAAHHHHHH!
March 20th, 2010 04:58
k i really really like the cover, and i would totally read it if i spoke brazillian/portugese, but the girl seems a liiiiiitttle too pretty to be Tally-wa…
-Lizzy-wa OUT!
March 20th, 2010 06:54
That book cover rs muy bonita!
March 20th, 2010 18:33
I almost like this better than ours, because in this she is tugging on her hair, which shows she is insecure, nervous, and impatient
March 26th, 2010 22:43
It’s a Pretties invention!!

when i first saw this cover, i thought it featured a floating head held up by two hands…
it took me a minute to realize that she was actually peeking over david’s shoulder… huh.
May 15th, 2010 06:41
you r right alice-wa she is looking over david’s shoulder. probably when they r hoverboarding together.
March 19th, 2011 07:23
Nice cover!
This is a completely random question (by the way, I am a HUGE fan of all of your books). How exactly did you decide on the covers for the Uglies series?
