On Thursday night, I accepted the award for Best Children's Book of the Year (Senior) for Mortal Coil, to rapturous applause from everyone who loves me. Yes, fine, that means I was applauding myself as I made my way to the stage, but it still counts, dammit...
Here is the beautiful award on my mantlepiece...
I also picked up a SECOND award, for I am THAT brilliant- this time it was for the Book of the Decade thing I won a few months back. Here are BOTH awards on my mantlepiece...
Yes. I have a cool house.
Thanks to everyone who voted- it's because of you, my Minions, that the Skulduggery books do so well at things like this. And I just LOVE getting up on stage and making fun of everyone. Makes me so happy...
And, now that I've remembered how to post photos, I'll add a few random ones...
These are home-made jackets worn by two girls who came to signings a few months ago, one in the UK and one in Germany... Sweeeeet.
And here are two pictures of kittens I used to have, before I found good homes for them...!

Congratulations on your win. The Skulduggery series is soooooo awsome... me and my bffl are addicted to them...we have so much fun talkin about the books... we once talked for 4 hours just about Skulduggery Pleasant. :)

My Bestie LOVES Tanith... And Sanguine... She could talk for hours just about those two characters... I myself LOVE Fletcher... He is soooo awsome... She, of course, thinks he is annoying... although... she has only read the first 3 books. :)
Oh... BTW... That one sent by emz or watever it was was from me :) My computer is being really mean to me.
OMG SAME WITH ONE OF MY FRIEND!!!! she absolutely HATES him and we fight constantly about it im still winning the argument though

*Laughs then disappears like the Cheshire cat*
gotta go be back later
'Kay then!
*om nom nom*
Anyway...
We here in America are dying from lack of Skulduggery. You should come here, or pay for me to go there. Or I may just have to steal your Clint Eastwood poster and bribe my dad with it. *BWAHAHAHA*
whoa. Kallista Pendragon commented and 1:52 AM on Nov. 30. Its still the 29 here. I feel like a time traveler. (MLIA)
DOES ANYONE READ MLIA???!!!! Do YOU, Derek?!
That just reminded me of Artificial Intelligence...Such...a great...movie!!!
1301!!
Has anyone seen A.I.?
Wow! What's Skulduggery's 1954 Bentley R-type continental, one of only 208 ever made, doing here?
Dear lord, I'm hearing voices.
Hmmm I have a feeling I'm missing something....
Good night!
Good night, Mary!
Hmmmmm.....
Not quite sure, Kallista.
...hi...
Hello, Artemis!
My brother loves that name and no one but he, you and I know how to spell it LOL!
Nice to meet'cha! :]
Hey...
why does your brother like it? Isn't it normally a girls name? Then again, Artemis Fowl has it. But still.
I feel stupid. I just realized all the times are in the same time zone (too lazy to check which) and not the time wherever you are. makes sense...
He loves it because of Artemis Entreri from the Drizzt books. :]
You probably don't know what either of those are lol, but it's a very good series. :3
Ah well. Gotta go. It's 8:45 PM here and I gotta do my homework. *sighs, pauses, blows homework to bits, laughs maniacally* teehee...
Hey! It's 8:45 here too!!
Where do you live???
Texas.. you? [:D]
Louisiana :]
*awesomeness* ah well, i really gotta go now... bye
Yeah still here. :]
I hate computer trouble!!
Mm it was ok. It's usually better.
What was Chuck about?
She's probably busy doing something very......skulduggery-y. :]
Wow! That's sounds like it has a TON of potential!!
Awesome, I will!
~grabs kitten~
You want one?
:P
~Hands over a little adorable blue kitten~
Awww everyone's getting sick!
I hope they get better!
I hate being sick!!
You're welcome. :]
Hahaha
Yeeeeaaah I don't know how normal I cant call you :D
~pets Puppy the cat~
Perhaps he'll be your sidekick one day!
LOL
Perhaps not :D
lol
I can SO see it now. :]
"Oh no!!" the villains shout." It's Kallista and her sidekick, Puppy!!! We can never defeat them!! We're dooooooooomed!!!!"
LOL
Maybe you should start training now?
Woah look at those oompa lumpas go!
They sure are fast little fellows.
~notices Kallista trampled into the road, peals her flat self off, and blows her up with air~
Well.....Puppy's having a good time....heh....heh....heh.....
lol I think we say "well" too much!
Well, that's what I meant!
Well, I suppose we could use it in almost every sentence.
Well, I do know what you mean. :P
Well, what do you suppose the great Master Derek Landy is doing right now?
Mwahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!
I like manically laughing!
~tries to contain laughter~
This really isn't your day, huh?
~bursts out laughing at smoking Kallista~
~Gets trampled by Clifford the Big Red Dog~
~Maniacally laughs again from flat on the ground~
~slowly stops laughing and looks at Kallista~
You know, you have the imprint of trolley wheels on your face.
~chuckles~
What time is it where you are?
Hey!!!
What do you think you're doing, you big red buffoon????
~Clifford barks, dropping Kallista~
~I dash to the nearest traveling mattress salesman and throw one under Kallista JUST before she smashes into the ground~
HA!!!
~Clifford starts chasing me~
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
~over my shoulder I encourage Puppy's bravery~
~Gets trampled by Clifford~
~lighting decides to shock me for a change~
MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
tHIS WAS MY PLAN FROM THE START, cLIFFORD!!!!!
~CLIFFORD BOUNDS TO ME TOTALLY UNAFRAID~
oOOOK SO MAYBE i WAS BLUFFING......
~Throws a frying pan to Wonder Woman~
This is a much better weapon, BELIEVE me!
~Wonder Woman bonks me over the head with frying pan~
~I fall to the ground, unconscious~
~Wonder Woman sees my point furthermore, leaves Kallista alone~
LOL
I think we keep messing it up, mostly me xD
I better go, lol.
Goodnight :)
See you tomorrow! :]
~Laughs goofilly~ I like smileys!!!!

ha ha. awesome house. KITTENS! I've got a homemade Tshirt! except it's not skulduggery pleasant. it's um... /tries to remember/ OH YEAH! Chronicles of ancient Darkness. But still, that's a good idea.... hmmm... maybe I'll make T's for ALL of my favourite books and movies...
Thanks for the idea!
All in all, nice pictures.
~Ambiguity

MY SCHOOL IS CLOSED!
I'll be on here all day, yey!
WHOOOOO SNOW IS AWESOME!
A very happy St Andrews day everyone!
*does the conga with ninja goldfish*
One quick question to myself: Why am I on at this time in a morning?
Note to self: Must wake up later
AND I GET TO MISS A SCIENCE TEST THAT I WOULD, IF I HAD IT, FAIL! WHOOOO! SNOW DAY!
GoldenEye and laptop all day... awesome!
Olay olay, olay olay,
Feeling cold cold cold.
No I'm not... why did I say that I was feeling cold... -8o today... joy... but I'm still not cold... something is keeping me warm...
LOL I just said farewell to my mum... she's going out in the swirling, freezing, white and dark mess which yorkshire is at the minuite...
SCHOOL IS CLOSED YEY!
SLEDGING HERE I COME!
Hopefully I won't do a backflip on it like last year :P
Ok... ok, ok... a backflip into a WALL...
Yorkshire looks very pretty at the minuite... it's still dark, the snow is glistening and you see that all yorkshire is white... if I could, I would take you and you could see how nice it is... and it's not blizzarding at the minuite so it's very nice...
And why did I just say that I'll never know...
I wonder who will play S.P in the movies...?
I Hope its Johnny Depp!
He would make the Skul-man soooo awsome :)
Hmm...
I hope someone will be on today... not leaving me to my own little loner devices... afterall... who's eaten a cherry muffin whilst diving into a cat litter tray?
Not me.
SNOW DAY WHOOP!
I must admit... I havn't tried that...
It doesn't sound like much fun...
apart from the Cherry Muffin *yummy*

I can't wait to view my 3459 emails...
Cool...
I leave all the technical stuff for someone else in the house...
I am far to...well... I don't get computers. :)
3459? How on Earth do you have so many emails?
I am ALL the technical stuff in the house... my dad doesn't know a thing about computers... just cars... I'm alright with computers, but I think its a fluke that electrical things just do as I want them to...
Oh no... it's 5459... it was a typo...
I'm pretty popular :D
The only part of computers I understand is Facebook and... well... this :)
Thats a lot of messages... I only had 987... but thats coz I forgot to check. :)
I always read them... but I keep getting more...
Snowing again :D
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow :D
lucky... I wish it would snow here more...
Of course... it can't really snow in summer...
Hmm...?
