First of all, my Ameriminions seem to be having a great time coming up with their opening lines, and I have to say the standard has been superb. There's still ages left to go, of course- the deadline is October 23rd- so keep submitting them in the comment section to the last post. It's all been very impressive so far- some real writers out there, and every few hours I have a new favourite... SO KEEP SUBMITTING!
Here are the things you need to do to be in with a chance of winning:
If you have a Facebook page, you could change your profile pic to the new Tom Percival US cover, then post a link on your Facebook wall to the eBook here http://bit.ly/qNJYCP.
If you're on Twitter, you could tweet (I'm sorry, I'll never be able to take this word seriously) a message out using the following hashtag- #FREESkulduggeryebookUS . It can be about anything connected to the free eBook offer but it must contain a link to the page http://bit.ly/qNJYCP and a request to re-tweet your tweet. Good God. Tweeting, retweeting, hashtags... Does ANYONE understand what the hell I'm talking about?
If you have a different online profile- like MSN, YouTube, Blog, Tumblr, etc- then you could post a status update which includes the cover and the link http://bit.ly/qNJYCP ...
Now, if you do ANY of those things, you MUST tell me in the Comments section to THIS post. Tell me EXACTLY what you've done and you'll be automatically entered into the competition. The closing date is October 31st, the competition is open to EVERYONE in EVERY country (yep, that includes you Ameriminions), and 10 winners will be selected at random by me.
Ready? Set? GO.

Hey, I was at the Frankfurt Book Fair. It was so amazing! But the poor microphones... xD.
I already read the book in englisch, but in german I can finaly understand everything. The visit at the book fair was a birthday present, but my birthday is primary at 15.11. and my mum said that she wont give me the book until my birthday!
It is HORRIBLE!!!
P.S.: Thanks for the autographs!
I tweeted it...

Anybodies here?
DEREK READ THIS!!!! I'm going to tell my book club about your book and I've already got some new Ameriminions for you. I hope you take that into consideration when you're randomly picking a winner. "Ahem, pick me."
I've put it on my tumblr!!! (And sorry for being quite late on entering, I would have entered earlier if not for the hassle of being a techie for the Drama Co.) :D I'm so excited, I hope I get picked!!!
Hi everyone!
Derek....
you should blog us Ameriminions more often. your Fans Need You!
Anyhoodoles
i love that word!
Anyhoodles, we were talking about why anyone would want to murder you... and we came up with one answer
They arent as awesomeful as you- and are Jelous. this only has a list of about.... i dont know.... 3 billion people?
Tra-la-la... I have finally returned! *throws confetti in the air and smacks people in the face with hammers*
You know, this is a total guess, but I have a slight suspicion you people aren't having a welcoming party, and that you haven't been dying for my return. But that's just a thought. I'm SURE that you people missed me, and maybe your party signal is just late? :D
(this is the rational part of Isabella's brain... She is WAY too full of herself...)
(*glares* and this is the irrational and fun part... Da da dee da day dee doe doe, dee da day day doe...)
Now that I think about it, I'm not entirely sure that the irrational part of my brain can glare at the rational part... Wait. I'm me. Of course it can, because I don't think there really IS a rational part. I think that part is sitting in a therapist's office curled into a ball in the corner. Yes, it is. Hehehe... I'm scary enough to scare my thoughts away...
Whoever thinks I make no sense whatsoever say AYE! *hears people saying AYE across the planet*
Do you see what happens when I'm forced to amuse myself?! I scared away my own thoughts! *quitely approaches thought from behind and latches onto its back* *thought screeches and bites my arm* *I'm sent flying backwards* Ow...! Little brat...
You should be inside my head when I'm dreaming, other Skulduggery freaks, and see what happens THEN. Especially when Skulduggery, Caelan, or Fletcher are in my dreams. They must've found a secret passage way or something... Anyway, THAT is funny.
HAPPY BIRRRTHHHDAAYYYYYYYYY!!!
^ is that enough for a party? what about WELCOME!
SP VAMPIRE RULES~
....
looool. im bored.
in class... history's cool sometimes.
MY BABY SISTERRRR RULESSSSSS. (she also drools).

Am I allowed to post on here to chat even though I'm probably not entering the competition?
(>^.^)>Kimber<(^.^<)
No wait, you are!
Alrighty then.
Does that mean you're staying? :D
Yay! I no longer have to bitten on the arm by my terrifyed thoughts!
Your thoughts are that violent?
Read the comments before this; the ones where I was alone, making fun of Isabella's (MY) thoughts.
Wow, that is pretty violent.
Ok so its on my YouTube- (Somewhere in my profile)

http://deilasblog.blogspot.com/
On my facebook- (In a post)

Derek you are awsomeifull to be doing this.
=D
Ah, of course it is. It's me. I shall return shortly... I'm going to the grocery store with me mumzy :D
(I love to say mumzy. It makes me feel like an incredibly odd Irish person)
Lol. Mumzy... if I said that to my mother she would define me as a weirdo.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh! I made a blog too. Ha-ha. How could I forget to mention that?
http://kimberlyvex.blogspot.com/
I haven't posted anything interesting YET but don't worry, I will at one point or another...
And now I'm alone. Fantastic.
Erg. I'm off. Things to do. People to imagine. Stories to write (and seriously reconsider).
Lates.
(>^.^)>Kimber<(^.^<)
Are you really gone? I have purchased my foods... Or, rather, my mum (hehe) did, seeing as how I have no money... But I is back now!
anyone on?
YES. Well, sorta.
hi bella, how r u?
sorta?
I can be sorta if I feel like sorta is a funny word. And it is. I'm just GRAND, how about you?
(by the way, if you're gonna, you know, call me bella, could you call me isabella? I've kinda been gradually changing my name back to isabella)
lol
im good
k
Derek's b-day party we're having is on Friday!!! :D :D :D
ur having a b-day party for him? cool
Psst! Derek! You should come! Just get on a plane and come to Washington! You won't even have to worry about adapting to our weather! It's the same as Ireland! Besides, I'm here! And Amanda! And we're AWESOME! And YOU'RE awesome! See? We'd get along so well!
Dear Derek Landy (A.K.A. Platinum God of all things Written),
You asked for it, you got it. - http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?cropsuccess&id=1233317560
Heck ya I'm having a party. My mum (Iseriously love that word) is ordering an eatable print-out picture of Skulduggery to put on the cake!
This is why I love being insane. I can do something odd (a birthday party for an amazing author who lives in Ireland? I say it fits) and no one automatically snickers at me. And I don't just act insane here - the real world is where the fun is :D
O~O
Hey Raven have you read my Halloween story?
no, cant say that i have
Well you should! :D
It's at http://bringingskulduggerytothemasses.blogspot.com/ and you actually have to scroll down to where it says "Halloween with the Detectives and the Sanctuary". Trust me, it's funny.
And sorry I took long to respond, I was editing my profile.
its ok
will go read it now
RANDOM COMMENT TO SAY I WAS HERE BUT THEN WENT TO BED. LOVE YOU GUYS. <3
hi/bye fly
sleep well *hugs*
Did ya read it?
ok, finished and i commented :)
I liked the marker. That was funny. And the hammer. That made my mum walk over and ask about my mischevious laughter.
And I know the characters weren't as well, SERIOUS, I guess I could say, as usual, but everyone needs to be funny like that every once in a while XD
I've gotta go to bed, so goodnight nights XD
night isabella
im gonna go to sleep, ill be on tomorrow sometime, night all
Convinced the school libruary to get the books quite a fiew people have taken it out.
Hey,
I have posted the link on my facebook-profil,my schuelervz-profil and my google-mail. I tell my friends all about skulduggery ;D
I love it!
Hello, I changed My facebook profile picture and copied and pasted the link and as well did a huge comment section with various skulduggery news and links the skulduggery pleasant website.
Hi, I changed my facebook profile picture and posted the link on my wall.
I also blogged it on my tumblr!
Thanks, and good luck to everyone else! :)
Thanks Rosie thats really nice ;)
Good luck to you too :D
Ahh holy jayses. I'm probably the oldest one here, D: probably the only one that gets the "I AM A GOLDEN GOD!" reference too... Russell Hammond lol. Also, one of my friends is writing her mini thesis on Skulduggery Pleasant and my boyfriend's obsessed with you, he and I spent hours... nay, days! inventing our alternate names. He has almost all of his books signed (including his pre-published copies, which he said you were impressed by when you signed them)SO jealous of that, because the last time I saw you speak there was a mile long queue of 8-12 year old's and I would have felt like a right eejit waiting in that queue, sticking out like a sore thumb. I would have felt even worse elbowing my way up to the front out of impatience to talk with the "Golden God" himself.
I only have Skype so I'm afraid I couldn't do much... SO I ALSO CONVINCED/ BRIBED/ FORCED MY ALL OF MY FRIENDS TO DO IT TO. I can only tell if they've done it on Skype BUT BOY HAVE WE GOT GREAT SP PICTURES!!!!!!!!
That simply HAS to count for something because that's all I can do.
Oh yeah, I forgot to put down the link to my Skulduggery Pleasant website, so here it is:
http://skulduggerypleasantrules.weebly.com
Please comment I would so willingly take criticism. The only people that have commented are my friends.
