Extras

If the idea of reading crappy bits of Syrup that never made it into the final version sounds good to you, you've come to the right place.

Spoiler Warning: If you haven't read the book yet, avoid this section. Pretty much everything here, including the trivia, will spoil the story for you. You wouldn't want that, would you? Noooo.

Trivia

Marvel over Syrup's awful original title, get the lowdown on the bitter internal struggle over 6's hair, and find out why one of the lamest lines in the book is the one that amuses me most.

Author Notes

Some scanned pages of notes I made while writing and editing Syrup. Please excuse the doodles.

Fukk Cans

The producers of the Syrup movie wanted to know if I had any actual design ideas for a can of Fukk (or "Fu*k," as it is in the script today). I said no, but I could ask if anyone else did. Lots of people submitted designs, which are collected in The Fu*k Gallery.

Query Letter

The cringe-worthy query letter I sent to agents when desperately trying to get published.
