...it has just been pointed out that maybe the important post, the COMPETITION post, may be slightly overlooked because it is no longer the "new" post. So I'm just posting again to make sure that you read the one below the one below this.
Oh dear God I've just overcomplicated a simple situation, haven't I?
Anyway, READ ALL BLOG ENTRIES, DAMMIT!

Our secret!
You are so confusing, I swear... Are you guys friends in real life or something?
*smiles at Phoenix*
Not entirely sure about Hunger Games seems like a bit of a sci-fi thing to me.

Don't tell her robin...
*Oh and hands Robin a box*
Inside there is a drop of our rain frozen in a ring shape. You know what it is....

Yeah Phoenix, the Hunger Games . . . Basically they're about a girl called Katniss who's forced into a tournament in which 24 kids have to fight to the death
*glares at Phoenix* Fine, make me feel clueless.

Val's not the only one feeling alone and ever so slightly confused . . .
Ha oh only if you knew
YES YOU SHOULD TELL ME!
Jonah's here too, maybe we should tell them. I mean I thought it obvious but maybe not.
Only if Robin wants to...
*shrugs* I have my guesses.
Ok then...

Hello?
Hello?
No one here at all then?
Not one?
I made a pretty boss book cover. :3
(>^.^)>Yo-yo-yo<(^.^<)
Yo Kim!
Yo Sparky!
Hey hey hey!
Yola Sparky! How goes it?
Yola! I like that...
I'm good. I writing part two of the fanfic, which includes a lot more degrading for Sparky. But people who haven't finished book six can't read it.
Poor Sparky...or you.
I'm considering doing a fanfic too but I haven't formulated an idea yet. My brain is in too many places.
I'm also trying to convince a friend to let me base a character on her.
I already know what the fanfic about her is going to be. But I need her permission first...
Do you want to read part two so far?
How does the name 'Harper Skirmish' sound to you?
Yeah, sure.
Sparky looked around. She had been told about Tanith Low.
‘Where is she Fletcher?’ Sparky whispered. Fletcher didn’t respond. He just grabbed her wrist and they appeared to a nearby tree. Fletcher put a finger to his lips and teleported away.
‘Fletcher? Who were you just sitting with? New friend? How are you and Val?’ Sparky heard an English accent say. Fletcher grunted. Then he spoke.
‘Tanith. I know you’re in there somewhere. Fight it.’ He said, his voice rigid.
Sparky heard Tanith laugh.
‘Fletcher, I’m happy. I’m used to sharing my mind. It’s okay, you can talk to me. I’m your friend, remember?’ Her voice was cheerful. Fletcher appeared in front of Sparky again. He took them back to the Sanctuary in Ireland.
‘Find Skulduggery. Bring him here. I’ll be back in three minutes. Find him.’ Fletcher ordered. Sparky had never seen him so serious. She nodded. She then pulled out her phone, thanking God that Skulduggery had given her his number.
‘Skulduggery, I’m in the Sanctuary foyer.’ Sparky said urgently.
‘I’m not a taxi, Sparky. Aren’t you still in the Infirmary?’ He replied.
‘Skulduggery, it’s about Tanith. She’s in Australia. Fletcher’s coming back in two minutes and you need to be here.’ In the Bentley he hung up and looked at Valkyrie.
‘We’re heading back for the Sanctuary.’ He said, his voice cold. He did a sharp U-turn and headed back for Roarhaven. Valkyrie crossed her arms.
‘But I’m leaving Alice with my refl-‘ She started.
‘It’s about Tanith.’ Skulduggery interrupted. Valkyrie looked at him.
‘But wasn’t she in America?’ She asked, dumbfounded. Skulduggery nodded, putting all his concentration into driving as fast as possible without hitting anything.
‘But not anymore?’ She asked. Skulduggery shook his head.
Sparky checked her watch. She had thirty more seconds. Where were they? Then she saw Valkyrie and Skulduggery running towards her. Fletcher arrived half a second after they did.
‘Lets go.’ Fletcher held out his arm. They all grabbed on. Tanith was waiting for them. Sparky had never seen her before. Tanith Low wore leather. Not much. She was also wearing a pair of scuffed boots, had a sword hiding underneath her jacket. She had long, tousled, blond hair. Her lips and veins were black. Sparky decided there and then that she did not want to have a sword fight with Tanith. Sparky may have been good, but she was just an excellent novice. Taking to things easily was handy and went well with her natural boisterous behaviour, making her appear better than she actually was. If she ended up against Tanith, Sparky’s air of confidence would evaporate before either of them could make a cocky remark. Sparky gripped her sword.
‘Who’s the new one? I’ve never seen her before.’ Tanith said, pointing at Sparky.
‘Her name is Sparky Braginski. She should probably leave, but I doubt she will.’ Valkyrie replied. Sparky relaxed her stance and scowled at Valkyrie. But before she could say anything Skulduggery cut in.
‘We need all the help we can get Valkyrie. Don’t offend our only sword fighter.’
Sparky smiled shakily and resumed her stance. She really didn’t want to have to fight Tanith. Tanith laughed.
‘I’m not leaving with you, if you were wondering. I only wanted to know why Fletcher moved to Australia.’ Tanith smiled. Valkyrie’s eyes were wet. Her cheeks were red. And her mouth was open.
‘Tanith fight it! You can get out!’ She yelled. Tanith chuckled. ‘Tanith, please. Let her go.’
‘No.’ Tanith said. A man who looked like he would be more at home on a ranch, rather than suburban Sydney popped out of the ground. He pulled off his sunglasses to wipe them, but there were no eyes underneath. Sparky shuddered.
‘C’mon honeybun, lets go.’ He said in a Texan drawl. He then saw the small group of readied enemies and coughed.
‘Who’s that?’ He said blankly.
‘Her name is Sparky Braginski. She dies first.’ Tanith answered. Sparky paled. Fletcher grabbed Sparky from behind and left.
‘What the hell was that for, Fletcher?’ She said as they appeared in the park.
‘You’re not dying today. I’m taking the others here too.’ He said. Five minutes they were all there.
‘Valkyrie, Fletcher’s right, we need more people before we go up against her.’ Skulduggery said. Valkyrie frowned.
‘Why do we need Sparky’s help? This is super dangerous. Fletch is right, she doesn’t die today.’ Valkyrie said. Skulduggery looked at her.
‘Valkyrie, put this in perspective. What were you doing when you were Sparky’s age?’
‘When I was thirteen? I fought the…The… Grotesquery…’ She mumbled. Skulduggery nodded.
‘Exactly. You were fighting a demigod. I think Sparky can handle this.’ He saw her look of horror. ‘When with others.’ He finished.
Harper Skirmish... I like it!
Actually, she just picked Hayley Skirmish.
AND GO!
Hello?
Hayley is good too. And I'm intrigued by this. Although dialogue usually uses "TEXT" the two apostrophes.
Meh.
One English teacher says one thing and different says another. I just whatever now.
When I was writing it I looked over a bit and laughed.
I'm good.
Humble too.
Finally, my friend reutrned a DVD she borrowed. I'm happy about that but she still has my 6th Skulduggery book. I miss it so much.
hello sparky
...Is it sad that I'm about to watch Sweeney Todd for the 4th time?
*punches Kienan*
Welcome back.

Slightly confused...
Kienan was Fletcher.
Ah, alrighty then.
Kewl...
I wish Derek would come on here...
It's 1:28am for him.
He should be asleep.
'Should be' asleep. There's still a very slim chance he could come on.
...
I doubt he would be able to keep conversation going for more than 5 minutes.
Unless...he...drank a lot of caffeine...Just trying to be optimistic.
I think he's asleep.
or slept all day...

But I need help.
Alright so I'm modernizing the Peter Pan story and I need help with a modern Captain Hook.
Oh, I'm writing.
Captain Hook...
Yep. A modernized Captain Hook...
Like, Peter Pan and the Lost Boys are orphans in an orphanage.
It's a bit hard to explain.
And I must go. Adios.
(>^.^)>Kimber<(^.^<)

Aw...

Good!
Have you read my fanfic?
It's on my blog.
I'm alone...
yea sorry.
bye
WHAT?!
*so annoyed*
Gr...
...I'm beginning to believe that getting an answer here is extremely difficult.
Can ANYONE tell me where I can find Short Stories 3 and 5? I'm in Australia, and I've read 'the Lost Art of World Domination' and 'Gold, Babies and the Brothers Muldoon'. I want to know where I can find 'a Slightly Ignominious End to the Legend of Black Annis' and 'the Wonderful Adventures of Geoffrey Scrutinous'. Are they being sold in Australia at all?
They come out with the new covers.
Please stay and talk.
Soryy, Sparky, I can't. Maybe next time. But thank you anyway. :)
KK...
*screams at sky*
Why am I alone?
Derek, any plans to make your books more widely available in America? It literally takes two or three months for the books to get here when we order from a European bookstore, which is the only way to get one of your books since only the first three are available on the US kindle. Can't you make them available for the US kindle store at least? It's killing me not knowing what happens while all of Europe is talking about it.
Other Ameriminions, how do you guys get the books.
Alice? Are you staying? 'Fraid I can't help on account of me being an Aussie...
AUSSIE AUSSIE AUSSIE OI OI OI!

That's what you get for trying something like that Kiwi.

I got first on the new page of the comp blog.
*giggles*
I also made a new character who I'm writing a fanfic about at the moment.
I'm also writing a part two of the fanfic about Sparky and the two are going to tie in together.
i want to write a fanfic but i don't know exactly where to start..
it isn't skulduggery related though..
BTW this is how you do it.
