    The Characters:

  • "Fanboy" is the narrator of the book, a 15-year-old brainy outcast who's way too smart and way too sarcastic for his own good. You can see his blog entries here.
  • Kyra is the Goth Girl, dark and mysterious and troubled. Someone has hacked into her computer and is busy posting old letters, poems, and private journal entries here.
  • Cal Willingham is Fanboy's best friend. Cal's a popular jock, but he's also smart as hell and loves comic books, especially old comics from the 1980s and even earlier. Cal blogs here.

      Hiya! I was just wondering...how do you, personally, get over writer's block? I have a thick case of it right now and it is so annoying!
      Everytime I stare into the screen with my music, my mind draws a blank.
      I can't even edit anything! My mind is boiling with ideas, but they just won't flow!
      Help??


      Oh, your book "Boy Toy" was great! It really got me going.

      hey, thx for the approval.
      your book is the best! in fact, i'm starting to read it again
      can you draw or provide a drawing of your POV on how kyra would look like, its really hard to imagine.


      since the book has an open-ending, r there going to be any sequel?

      Hey!! Thanks for the add, please please look at my paintings, as that was the whole point of the exercise and I rarely add random book sites :) Hope you like them. I can relate to Fanboy.
