Hmmmm

Hypothetically, if a writer had to fill 16 pages in the back of a book with "extras"- like DVD extras but for, like, a book- then what should he fill those pages WITH?

An interview? A list of his influences? Deleted/discarded scenes? Something else?

Or maybe you'd just like 16 BLANK pages at the end of a book. You know, for your own doodling and such...

*sits with Phoenix* *glances at Sparky*

Alexander Mythology said...

The crash was in Wellington?

Sparky Braginski said...

Did I do anything Robin?

Flame Phoenix (Fawkes)~roleplaying said...

Hmm.

*whispers silently to Robin*

We don't need them.

Alexander Mythology said...

Can we stop the comments for a sec, cause I think we're stepping onto dangerous terrain at the moment.

Robin Snowscar said...

*grins at Phoenix*

No Sparky, you're still amazing but I can't leave with you two at eachothers throats

Izz said...

North of Wellington.

Read the story. It mentions several places.

Flame Phoenix (Fawkes)~roleplaying said...

No, no we aren't

Robin Snowscar said...

What Myth? Dangerous terrain?

Izz said...

He's paranoid. Just ignore him.

Robin Snowscar said...

Okay, well I have to leave, farewell bloggers *hugs*

Alexander Mythology said...

It's just what you said, Rob. Being at each others throats.

Flame Phoenix (Fawkes)~roleplaying said...

I'm paranoid. Ok whatever.

Sparky Braginski said...

Bye Robin.

Myth, Izz have a cookie.

Flame Phoenix (Fawkes)~roleplaying said...

*smiles cheerily*

Alexander Mythology said...

*tucks right into a giant cookie time*
Mmm tastes like live chicken.

Izz said...

Servus Robin.

Thank you Sparky. *takes cookie*
hmmmm.
*sets cookie aside, goes to fetch glass of milk*

Sparky Braginski said...

Oh. Right.

Here, gave one of Japan's leftover cookies Flame.

Flame Phoenix (Fawkes)~roleplaying said...

*rolls eyes*

Izz said...

*comes back with milk*

Yum.

Flame Phoenix (Fawkes)~roleplaying said...

No thanks.
I'm good.


*takes out gameboy and starts playing it*

Alexander Mythology said...

Did I just get eye rolled?

Flame Phoenix (Fawkes)~roleplaying said...

Yes, yes you did.

Alexander Mythology said...

Oh, okay.

*go gets a unicorn*

Alexander Mythology said...

Uh.. has everyone left?

Izz said...

No.
Get a profile picture.

Sparky Braginski said...

*tries to jump on Izz's back, and falls right through her*


Aw...

Flame Phoenix (Fawkes)~roleplaying said...

That's harsh

Alexander Mythology said...

Oh good. I was worried there for a sec. Hey, did you know that uncorn horns are purple?

Izz said...

Sparky.......

Why?

Flame Phoenix (Fawkes)~roleplaying said...

Wanna play truth or dare?

Alexander Mythology said...

I'm up for it.

Sparky Braginski said...

*gets up and dusts self off*

I forgot you were a ghost.

*jumps onto Myth's back*

Izz said...

Kind of hard Phoenix. But yeah ok.

Flame Phoenix (Fawkes)~roleplaying said...

Anyone else?

Alexander Mythology said...

Attack, Corny!

Flame Phoenix (Fawkes)~roleplaying said...

Ok myth are you a boy or a girl?

Alexander Mythology said...

*Protects crutch*

boy.

Izz said...

Ha. Nice Sparky. Next time give me warning and I wont be so insubstantial.

Sparky Braginski said...

I'm in for T or D.

Flame Phoenix (Fawkes)~roleplaying said...

Ok yay there's 2 boys.


So Izz you start. Pick someone and then whatever they do they pick the next.

Izz said...

Ok.

Sparky. what do you say?

Anonymous said...

Maybe you could put some entries from the competition in,
Or you could do a 'about the author thing' or you could write random things about chickens

Sparky Braginski said...

I say...

*thinks for a moment*

Dare.

Flame Phoenix (Fawkes)~roleplaying said...

Hi niamhb

Izz said...

hmmmmmm.

wait! how are we going to know the person has done what they're told?

Alexander Mythology said...

...your're still on my back, Sparky

Sparky Braginski said...

I dunno.

Flame Phoenix (Fawkes)~roleplaying said...

Do it virtually. Like jump in the lake of something

Sparky Braginski said...

*gets of Myth's back*

Flame Phoenix (Fawkes)~roleplaying said...

*or

Alexander Mythology said...

I suppose we don't. We'll just have to trust each other, which is kind of risky, but okay.

Izz said...

I got a good one!

Sparky. *dumps bucket of water on her head*

Try and shock Phoenix for suggesting we play this.

Flame Phoenix (Fawkes)~roleplaying said...

?

Hmm.

No

Sparky Braginski said...

Why did you do that?

*touches Flame given him and me a rather severe electric shock*

Ow. Myth, Truth or Dare?

Alexander Mythology said...

Sparks is wet. YAY!

Izz said...

Flame Phoenix (Fawkes)~roleplaying said...

Sparky Braginski said...

*slaps Myth giving both of us shock*

Nngaah. You get used to it.

Nicole Cerundolo said...

Izz said...

Flame Phoenix (Fawkes)~roleplaying said...

Sparky Braginski said...

Yes, that was the question.

Alexander Mythology said...

Uh.. okay *ziz*

Flame Phoenix (Fawkes)~roleplaying said...

Sparky Braginski said...

*burns towel to a crisp*

Flame Phoenix (Fawkes)~roleplaying said...

*glares at sparky and Val*

WTF is wrong with me all of a sudden?

just_me said...

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

What about me, Phoenix?

Izz said...

*steps in front of Val*

I think we need to be a bit more friendly. hm?

BlackDragon said...

im good thanks

ha lol wats goin on now

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

Hey, everytime I'm on, Phoenix, you're a jerk to me, so I like Sparky to be on my side, because everyone else chooses yours. That's my only issue.


So, how is everyone?

Flame Phoenix (Fawkes)~roleplaying said...

*smiles sweetly*

Everything

...

And Derek you maybe put in biods of all the characters, or maybe pick minions and get them to write a short story or something.. And include them

Izz said...

Fine Val. Just fine.
I was wondering something...

Flame Phoenix (Fawkes)~roleplaying said...

When have I been a jerk to you?


Like for freaks sake, you start on me half the time. Sparky and you,,

Everyones against me on here. Nobody chooses sides val. They just play the game. Like jeez it's a bit of harmless role-play.

Izz said...

Do you have a Skulduggery Pleasant watch?

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

*thinks for a moment, then grins* I bet I could convince a few of my teachers to call me Valkyrie... That would be awesome...

Izz said...

You strike me as the sort of fan who would.

Flame Phoenix (Fawkes)~roleplaying said...

My mother said that when I'm getting my room painted I could get little paintings of sp and the gang painted on

BlackDragon said...

im good val
gtg soz

peace out

*trow smoke bomb den i disappear*

poof

Izz said...

That would be cool.

When I get a car. I want Skulduggery on the roof. Or at least a skeleton in a suit with a gun...

Flame Phoenix (Fawkes)~roleplaying said...

So who's on?

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

*glares at Phoenix* Everytime there's a conflict between us, everyone fights on your side, whether it's an arguement or a Blog battle thing. No one supports me.

Izz said...

Val. Please.

Flame Phoenix (Fawkes)~roleplaying said...

Yeah. Dunno if I will though.

It's like kinda, I dunno, nerdish as such

Nicole Cerundolo said...

KALLISTA. Could you PLEASE look at my poem on my blog??? It's also a dedication to the Golden God.

Flame Phoenix (Fawkes)~roleplaying said...

Yes they do. A load of people do.

*glares back hard*

Izz said...

It's not nerdish. It's super-fandom

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

*glares at Izz also*



You know, I think I might be in a bad mood or something. Probably because the second I got to school I had to run as fast as I could for eight minutes straight...

Flame Phoenix (Fawkes)~roleplaying said...

Yes, but will people outside the sp world think that?

Flame Phoenix (Fawkes)~roleplaying said...

Why?

Izz said...

*ignores glare*

I hate running.
So do you have a watch?

Izz said...

No they wouldn't. they would think: "oh my god that skeleton is so cool!"

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

No, I don't have a watch, but I have a clock. I have a picture of it posted from my party post.

Flame Phoenix (Fawkes)~roleplaying said...

Maybe...

Izz said...

I see.
My watch run out of battery power.

Fiona Valkyrie said...

here's what you do, Derek. 3 pages for random doodling, ONLY as long as you get at least 500 people the make a big promise to you that they will doodle ONLY skulduggery things and then send pics of at least one to you. Maybe you can make a contest out of that... just an idea, and it would have to be for AmeriMinions too, because I'M and AmeriMinion, (I used to be MooGirl, but I finally got around to changing it), also, you could fill up the other 13 pages with an interview with Skul-Man and maybe sme discarded scenes of yours. I know, lots of ideas for only sixteen pages, but consider... please? oh yeah, and HI! how are your pets? (heh heh)

BlackDragon said...

Ibk 4 a bit so flame u an val made a truce yet???

Izz said...

Has everyone died or something?

Flame Phoenix (Fawkes)~roleplaying said...

Not yet.
Brb

BlackDragon said...

It seems as though they have

Anonymous said...

Wow, almost at the new post

Anonymous said...

Unless I've gotten the count wrong...

BlackDragon said...

Ok I guess u guys haven't made a truce

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

Yes, Izz, I'm dead. Dead with boredom, that is.

Anonymous said...

Derek: You should definitely put in deleted scenes :D Like, small filler scenes inbetween books or battles and other things we never got to see. Or a breif glimpse of what the dimension Skulduggery was trapped inside was like when he first arrived. That'd be awesome *-*

Anonymous said...

KALLISTAAAA
'ELLO :D

Anonymous said...

I spelt brief wrong.
Curses.

Alexis A. said...

16 pages, eh?
1) Questions asked by your awesome Minions w/ answers of course.
2) Random Skulduggery doodles by YOU and some other random fans.
3) Extremely short snippets of short stories from your amazingly awesome Minions.
4) SKULDUGGERY GAME!!!
5) 'Behind the Scenes' Skulduggery Pleasant (like snippets and such of how Skulduggery came to be)

I suggest Option 2 and 3. Just saying...

Flame Phoenix (Fawkes)~roleplaying said...

Oh so your sad?

Flame Phoenix (Fawkes)~roleplaying said...

They are emailing.

Sparky Braginski said...

Lion, Flame, she isn't sad and she isn't angry and she isn't happy.

She is in the grey in-between area, which is where I am also at the moment.

So stop badgering her.

BlackDragon said...

Oh good

Flame Phoenix (Fawkes)~roleplaying said...

? Ok. But I was going to try cheer her up.

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

I'm not sad. I'm bored.

Sparky Braginski said...

And maybe, she doesn't particularly feel like doing this at the moment.

Let her do what she wants, trying to change someones mood makes them angry.

Flame Phoenix (Fawkes)~roleplaying said...

Ok, jeez. I try to do a nice thing and I'm slammed down.
