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?
Pods, u havent even read Pretties and Specials yet..and Tally IS a bad person…yet she’s not..she’s inbetween..
Can’t wait for Extras Scott! You are the best writer EVEEEEEEEEEEEEEER!
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.)

HOLA
aya-wa.
i think all teh names that end with a vowel sound better with a ‘wa’ and the others with a ‘la’.
Im sorry but i like Aya-la better… even tho it wouldnt go with the rules for it or whatever..
there r no “rules” people jst have dif theories.. but Aya-la stumbles over the tongue..thats what i think
he is going with la
i asked him today
arg…but “la” trips over the tongue!!! *sigh*
the only problem with “Aya-wa” is that it sounds like IOWA. So…yeah, I dunno about that.
tru, but still…i vote “za”!!! lol, i know he said “la” but still
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.
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!
Aya-wa,definately!
I LIKE AYA-LA BETTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
