Still on the Leviathan tour, and I am SLEEPY. Thanks to everyone at RJ Julia in Madison and the Wellesley Booksmith for having me as a guest the last two evenings. And if you missed me, both of these stores have lots of signed copies of all my books sitting on their shelves.
In other news, the audio book of Leviathan is now available for download from either iTunes or Audible. As you may remember from this post, it’s read by the inestimable Alan Cumming.
Click here to download from Audible. Or here for iTunes.

Oh man, the Canadian northwest is quite possibly the worst place to live when it comes to book tours.
I was at the library yesterday and I saw Leviathan! I had my camera with me, incase they did have it in, but I forgot to take a picture. It’s so…so….beautiful!
I can’t wait to get it, good luck on the tour!
: D
P.S. I rented Geektastic from the library too. Huzzah!
Yay! 7th comment!
Okay now real comment: it was AMAZING seeing you and Robin in Wellesley! I still can’t believe that I actually met you, and got a book signed!! (well, actually several books 😀 ) And it was SO BUBBLY when I gave you my poems and you said: “oh, you’re Team Toshi Banana!” 😀 😀 😀
A little random but I found an article on a solar powered heated jacket that reminded me of the jackets in Uglies. http://www.treehugger.com/files/2009/10/finally-attractive-solor-clothing-the-zenga-ecotech-solar-jacket.php
Thought it was pretty interesting and sounded right in the vein of the Ugly books.
nice yoshi ^_^
you are mad lucky
that’s bubbly-major!
I feel like a little fangirl dying to meet Scott Westerfeld – I shall someday! haha…
I wonder how much Scott ever feels like a celeb… only he’s not put on random pages of People magazine – and he has a blog that he actually responds to so that’s bubbly!
PING TO THE ALL IMPORTANT SCOTT-LA: Sleepiness? I feel your pain… 😀
Ping to the general public who likes to read the few story sentences I post now and again: I DON’T HAVE WRITERS BLOCK ANYMORE!!!! (You, Scott-la, should also know how estactic this is considering that you get them too. Don’t pretend you don’t. haha! Sorry. I have a history of bad jokes.) Anyway for those of my actual fans, I will (hopefully) be getting a facebook soon so I’ll be posting my stories on.
Ping to Sarah-la: Haven’t heard from you in a while, but I just remembered that you gave me your email adress a while back, and since you probably want to read I will try to type them to you. Or do you have a blog or something? cause I don’t think that I will be able to do that since my rents won’t let me send stuff to people I don’t technically know. Bottom line I HAVE A STORY FINALLY!
a pardon ping to the general public: Sorry to you all and Scott-la about me talking about my life. Sometimes I just get a little carried away and forget that it’s not my blog but Mr. W’s Anyway, this post is long enough so I’m gonna say Hasta Levista! 😀 Or should it be Hasta Leviathan? (pun intended) 😀
Team Toshi Banana: that’s so cool how Scott-la recgognized you like that 😀
im so tired..i really want to sleep.. oh i finished leviathan this weekend, it was so good!!! i dont know if i can wait a whole other year for the second book…it will be to hard..Scott-la you should release the second book early..that would be great..haha
oh and now that ive read the book i totally understand why you have a message lizard on your blog..because there was a message lizard in the book..haha 🙂
Wisconsin is lonely…!
Ping to Team Yoshi Banana,
OMG!!! How did he know it was you?!?! And did you tell him hi from Jessie-wa??? JK JK JK!! Lol, but lucky, I am some crazy fangirl! I really wanna meet him. What did you say?? Can I read some of your poems??? THAT’S SOOOOOOOO AWESOME THAT HE RECOGNIZED YOU!!!!!!
Ping to Julie-wa,
I am some crazy fangirl, dying to meet Scott Westerfeld!!!!
Ping to Scott-la,
I’m reading Leviathan right now, it’s fantastic, but I like the Uglies series more, but I still love it! On your next tour will you please come to Colorado, around Denver-ish preferably?? Please.
Okay well thats all! ByeBye every buddy!!
iin the process of reading it now =] its awsome so far, and im only on the ssecond chapter =]]]
Hey tOty~
Yeah… I don’t have a facebook or anything… just a deviantART account, which is manafione and if you click my name it will take you there. Also, if you want to email me whatever you’re working on my email address is mana.fione@yahoo.com .
Thanks again for stopping at my school! The girls were thrilled to meet you. (And I started Leviathan on the train home, and am hooked already.)
Take care, and good luck on the rest of the tour!
Just got back from Justine’s event at Third Place Books — sorry I didn’t make it to yours last week, she told me that I was missed! ):
Hope the rest of your tour is going superbly!
Books are a lost luxury item for me these days, but by some miracle my local library had a copy of LEVIATHAN and I managed to call first dibs. This would be less amazing if I lived in a city but I live in the wilds of western Mass, so it’s a minor miracle my library has electricity let alone a new release. Anyway, the day after I picked up the book I landed in the ER with an asthma attack, and in the four hours I was there I read LEVIATHAN cover to cover. It was the best four hours in an ER I’ve ever spent. Fan-tastic. Hopefully, I’ll be able to read the second book in a more comfortable setting, but honestly the world you created is so engrossing that I doubt I’d notice a zombie invasion while reading – at least until they ate my eyes.
Hm. Suppose I’ll get the audiobook, just in case.
🙂 Thanks for a great read, sir.
why do 2 different teachers assign 2 different tests for the same day? and why do 4 different teachers assign 4 different projects at the same time?
Ping to Sarah-la,
I dont think you should put your email up for grabs. Just saying
i just got home from seeing Justine-la! so much funness! hehehe i do so love authors that recognize me
-Lizzy-wa OUT! 😀
Ping @ Amy~la,

haha.

I think you can all recognize me by now…
ping to scott-la- do you mind taking a” vacation” to raliegh north carolina area for a day and happen to walk into a book store (please tell me which one!) and say that you’ll sign my copy of, well, everything i have of yours? please?(if you can’t i understand, besides nothing ever happens where i live anyway!)
im really mad i can’t make it to any of yours OR justine’s things!
another ping to scott-la:
do you like chocolate?
Pig to SpagBol,
Ya I we can recognize you by now. I can’t make it to any of Scott’s or Justine’s signings either! Well I live no where near ANY of the places Scott-la’s going and I’m pretty sure Im not close to any of Justine’s.
So ya bye
Lol I accidentally said pig
piNg to D&ZLUVER:
hehe i drew a pig of doom the other day! it was totally bubbly! it was a manga-head (and for my first time drwing something like that i thought it was very good!
I wish there was a tour stop somewhere near me, but sadly there isn’t. 🙁 Maybe I’ll be able to go to a signing next time you tour. 😉
Ping to all Westerfeldians: I am giving away a copy of Leviathan on my blog. Visit the following link to enter.
