First comment. Nothing really to say. XP
So. How’s everyone doing?
September 26th, 2011 01:38
Potatoes.
September 26th, 2011 02:01
yay! Can’t wait until you get to San Fransisco!
September 26th, 2011 02:51
See you tomorrow, Scott! (asighehnb9iehg9ehj!!!)
Seriously procrastinating on my shirt, but I should have it done in a couple hours. /squint
September 26th, 2011 02:54
I’m glad that there’s no spoilers here. I still haven’t purchased the book yet, but I did have to get Algebra 2 For Dummies. Not the book I wanted to get… I hope that I can get Goliath soon so I don’t have to avoid this website anymore.
September 26th, 2011 03:19
Hah! A comment thread to relay this bit of news-
My brother and I really enjoyed your KC visit. (Although I’m pretty sure I dragged my brother along, but whatever.) His comment was that he was surprised it was funny and you were like a ‘stand up comedian’, which is a Good Thing, I’m sure.
September 26th, 2011 04:24
BLAH. D: I CAN’T GO. I.WILL.DIE.NOW. unless i show up and surprise everybody.
SCOTT/CKOTT! are there any more tours that you’re doing in the future in which you show up in california?!?!?!?! (pleasesayyespleasesayyespleasesayyes)
I will attempt ninje-ness and try to show up in LaVerne.
September 26th, 2011 04:24

September 26th, 2011 06:26
OH MY GOD! I’m going on Wednesday! I’ve got this awesome steampunk costume and I’m debating whether to wear it. Should I? Please someone dress up with me!
September 26th, 2011 06:29
i love your books!!! especially the third Leviathan book, Goliath, i bought it the day it came out and finished the same night! i absolutely love your leviathan books because they are adventurous and a really good love story! if i were you i would greatly consider making this into a movie, if you have been considering it than please make it into one, it would make me jump for joy to see it in the theaters.
September 26th, 2011 06:33
I don’t think I like the cover of Goliath… (Please, no one kill me for saying that.)
September 26th, 2011 07:11
Oh man. I just moved to Santa Cruz which is within an hour’s drive of both Menlo Park and San Francisco. If I had brought my car with me, I would be super excited right now. Blast exorbitant UC parking fees.
I hope you have an good time in NorCal! Maybe I’ll catch you on your next tour.
September 26th, 2011 07:32
Mary – As someone else going to Keplers on Wednesday, I strongly support you wearing a costume.
September 26th, 2011 08:28
are we aloud to give you presents? even if i could id probably chicken out…
see you in SF! soooooooo exited!
September 26th, 2011 08:32
teehee i have a present for you scott-la! see you in SF! soooooooo exited!
September 26th, 2011 08:35
wait.. what size shirt do you wear?
September 26th, 2011 12:21
When your Leviathan series ends, there is a dark beginning. Europe rise without a scratch from World War 1, but more World Wars are on their way. The Second World War ends with German occupation on Europe, and the Third is the rebellious Nazis and the Fourth are the Soviets. Leviathan may have ended, but dark times is yet to come.
Even though the age of steampunk ends, new technologies are coming.
If you don’t want to make another Leviathan series, then someday when I became an author, there will be another. I wanted to be like you but not as skilled.
Oh, and I live in California, but I won’t see you anywhere. You’ve inspired me, Scott.
September 26th, 2011 12:28
Also, thank you for the romance between Alek and Deryn. A badass and strong-willed tomboy and a venerable but also a strong-willed boy. Something new to me. But there should have been more kissing pictures in Goliath…
September 26th, 2011 18:02
heyyy carmine101, not too subtle with being anon there, huh
September 26th, 2011 21:44
Are you ever coming to Ohio????
September 26th, 2011 23:17
PLEAASSSSEEEE COME TO OHIO!!! I’m with Fureva </3
September 27th, 2011 02:55
short notice: i comin’ today! i try to dress up.
see you in LaVerne, Scott/Ckott!
September 27th, 2011 04:15
Hope you have a good time, Moonie. But Carmine 101 is not here.
September 27th, 2011 06:09
YAYYY!!!!!!
Your coming to Round rock!
I’m so happy!!!!
After I read Goliath, I had to make this video-
I would be honered if you posted it on your blog
(Though I understand their are about a million others that are a way better than it) Please, at least take a peek!
That much would be awesome!

It was friggin AMAZEBALLS meeting you Scottsters!! your jokes were Kane and hysterical at the same time… (plus the bookstore totally had Carrie Ryans signed books <3) but I kind of have a couple questions- cuz I'm lame and the moment you started your whole lecture thingie I sort of forgot them
1. So with the Missing Black Woman thing, did you create it, was it internetie, or whatever??
2. When you made the Word Cloud- what wasthe word you "spoiler"ed out??
3. (and finally) in Goli, WHERE THE HELL WAS "crashing a bash"??
September 27th, 2011 08:23
Will you and/or Keith tour with the Leviathan art book??? If so please come to Atlanta!
September 27th, 2011 08:36
I met you today!!! It was awesome to see and talk to you!
September 27th, 2011 09:46
gaaaaaaaaaaaahhhh curse tennis practices! It would have been a 2 and a half hour drive for me to come tonight, but there was no way I could get out of tennis.
I know you don’t really have a say in your tours, but I hope that in the next one you manage to come all the way down to San Diego. If you ever do come here, I will be bringing along about 10 people who I have converted to your books. 
September 27th, 2011 17:46
For all of y’all who went to La Verne: I was the girl in the Barking Spiders shirt and dark hair. HI.
September 27th, 2011 21:39
Hello, all. There isn’t really a line of conversation to this comment thread, but I wanted to make something known:
I just got sorted into SLYTHERIN on Pottermore. Anyone else? (I thought I was a Ravenclaw… *sad* *oh well*)
September 28th, 2011 02:36
Uglies needs to be a MOVIE!I would even more excited than when Harry Potter came out!
September 28th, 2011 03:25
No, Leviathan needs to be a movie.
September 28th, 2011 03:29
SCOTT I’m so angry right now!!! I went to istanbul and took a picture of me outside of the blue Mosk (because there was a scene in Goliath there, well sorta it was just where alek met Eddie but whatevs) with behemoth JUST FOR YOU !!!!!!! thinking that I might get a chance to give it to you on you tour but I guess you have a serious problem with my state because YOUR SKIPPING IT!!!! I went through a hoard of obnoxious carpet sellers to get that picture!!!! One of them followed my mom and I all the way to the stairs and wouldn’t go away until I shouted at him in a (quite convincing) brittish accent!!! GO AWAY YOU BLOODY CARPET SELLER, AND FOR THE 10000th TIME I DON’T WANT A CARPET AND, NO, THIS BOOK THAT IM HOLDING IS NOT HARRY POTTER!!!!!! And now I guess I’ll just have to go to your house and give it to you then, cuz I did not go through that nightmare (well actually it was sorta fun) to hit this roadblock! See u soon Scott-la.
September 28th, 2011 03:30
Oops not Goliath I mean behemoth
September 28th, 2011 03:41
Please ignore her, Scott. She has a problem that will go away later.
September 28th, 2011 03:58
I was in la verne! hi peoples! That book signing basically made my LIFE! I wore no costume. (sadness.) but i wore my “not a muggle” button ’cause I was being lazy and didn’t have time to get a costume. Maybe pink shirts count? … (cuz’ I wore one at la verne!) Bye!
September 28th, 2011 04:31
@ one person
Heyyyyyyyy!!!!! Ouch that hurt. That comment was supposed to be said sweetly! (for goodness sake I went to Istanbul for him of course it was ment nicely)
September 28th, 2011 08:11
@Clanker Rose OH HAAAAAI. Nice to see you posting here!
@Selin: Oh wow, that’s cool! And don’t worry about One Person. It’s just Carmine101 with an identity crisis. (And he’s always a meanieface.)
September 28th, 2011 08:57
haha thanks!
September 28th, 2011 15:35
@Madi-la “Crashing a bash” was an april fools joke to freak us out.
Has anyone seen deryn sharpie?
September 29th, 2011 02:18
ya k a rlly great place?? MASSACHUESETTS. so get yo butt ova here!
September 29th, 2011 02:31
@ jacquie-la
good question. i’ve sotra gotten used to seeing her (well i would guess its a her….) comments around. HEY SHARPIE!!! WHERE R U?
September 29th, 2011 04:21
Moonie, you think I’m a meanie? That’s not nice.
September 29th, 2011 06:06
@selin: Yeah I know. At first I thought maybe she was Deryn@Leviathon, but then I remembered the whole -spof thing so… yeah.
September 30th, 2011 02:33
@ jacquie
Still no sign of her.
What does spoof mean again? Snakes pop out of fireplaces?
September 30th, 2011 03:41
Hi Scott! I’ve just finished the Leviathan and Uglies series and it is soooooo bubbly. Have you ever considered coming to Memphis, TN? (We’ve got great BBQ and blues music.) Thx a lot!
September 30th, 2011 09:56
Make a new series, Scott!
October 3rd, 2011 07:23
@ One Person You know what? GREAT IDEA! Dark times ensue after a deceptively short Great War. That’s a better plot point to start on than anything I’ve yet come up with (and trust me, I’ve come up with MANY after reading Goliath a mere week or so ago).
October 7th, 2011 08:41
I was at laverne!!!
so exciting!!!! I finished Goliath that day but i havent been on the site yet.
AMAZE!
Hi Moonie! I loved ur barking spiders shirt
lol i sat next to u and ur mom
October 12th, 2011 00:52
Hey! It was weird to see people who post here @ the book signing. (yes, I’m still obsessing after what, 2 weeks now?) I am being Barlow for Halloween and got the Most Epic Costume Ever by running about a secondhand store. (PLUS BOWLER HAT.) any ideas for added steampunk-ness just to make Barlow MORE obvious anybody?
October 12th, 2011 01:00
WAIT. Everybody. I am NOT SURE ‘BOUT THIS. But… I asked Signore Scott about another novel/ novels and he said something (VAGUELY) about… … … … Manga. (yay) like “the London Zoological Society might have some further adventures in manga.” or something like that. Or we can just all burn our computers and wait in the woods until some smart person decides to make a MOOOVVVIIIEEE. I repeat, I am NOT sure about this, so don’t press the panic button.
