When he observed that "Elvin's voice more closely represents the way I talk than the other narrators," Lynch added, "I'm going to do more with Elvin as a narrator." In March of 1999, he published Extreme Elvin, following Elvin and his close friends Mike and Frankie into the first year of high school. Still affected by various physical afflictions (hemorrhoids and hormones), Elvin is as self-aware and amusing as he was in Slot Machine as he tries to cope with peer pressure and his first social encounters with the young women at the school. Elvin's mother has a larger role in this book, and the somewhat downbeat but not depressing ending indicate that further accounts of Elvin's teen years are a likely possibility.
