And I've just been going through the comments marked as "Spam"- even though none of them were spam. For some reason, at various times Blogger reckons you might be spamming the comments section and so doesn't show what you've written (which might explain some missing posts). But I was going through it and I found a message from Teena, my Thai translator. Hi Teena! I think translating the short stories is a lovely idea, and you're so good to even offer to do it. You might have to check with the publisher that it's ok to go ahead, but you absolutely have my permission (if you haven't changed your mind by now...)
And, because no short Blog post is complete without a picture, here's a little doggy.

«Oldest ‹Older 4201 – 4400 of 4680 Newer› Newest»I used to slap my sister all the time.
now i just tell her get lost
there are a few people who id like to punch
And once, when I was at basketball practice, I sprained my finger... Although, I didn't notice until it seemed like it was swelling up...
i once slapped a guy at basketball.
i was trying to slap the ball out of his hands, but he moved
you play basketball? i play soccer.
and at football, a guy pushed my friends over, and full on stomped on his arm
And football shoes HURT
You know what hurts? When someone throws a basketball into your stomach. That hurts so badly it makes it so you freeze up and can't move.
a basketball in the face hurts more
a soccer ball hit my face once and my cheek swelled up
I don't play basketball anymore; I did last year, in sixth grade. My team was undefeated.
I accidentally winded myself once. Does that count?
the guy with the arm that was stomped on? The arm broke in seven different places
He got better, but now he's got a leg broken in four different places
I've been hit in the nose with a basketball. And I've beet hit in the eye with an American football. Quite a few times.
my team was undefeated. we made it to the grand final. then we lost at penalty shoot outs!
my team was defeated. again and again and again
Haha!
We all seem to be professionals at being hurt... The reason I usually get hurt is out of being clumsy, not looking where I'm going, or my carelessness.
i usually get hurt because of scooters.
And everyone around me, including myself, get hurt because I'm too strong for my own good, apparently. I kicked one of my uncles and he freaked out because he didn't understand how it was possible for a 12-year-old to kick so hard.
(Bear in mind, if I stop responding, I'll have probably passed out...)
in basketball (and this is all in one game)
one guy got called off for swearing
another for kicking someone else (accident)
One sprained his ankle
one arm got stepped on
one broke his nose
And i bent four of my fingers back
We lost
yeah...
funnily enough, we never formed a team again, and the other team was kicked out of the leage for fowl play
Most of my soccer team are now playing for the state. But not me.*sighs and looks gloomy*
Hurry up Mist
and the guy on my team that was called off for swearing was kicked in the shin
Nix, I'm around three sentences from finishing the chapter!
three sentences to much
I gotta go soon!
Bye!
By the way, does anyone know if Drucilla Nox, Eve's character, is good or bad? Or neutral.
i think good, but i don't know
i putter eve's character as good
Oh yeah, forgot! Would anyone like to put their character in my story?
yes
want a description?
Name: Nixion Strange
Age: 14, almost 15
Magic: Adept
Adept Ability/s: Bone Breaking – Tesseract
Gender: Male
Appearance: Nixion is thin, just taller than the average 14 year old with brown eyes that carry a pitiful tormented look in them. He wears a protective jacket on special occasions, but most of the time, Nixion just wears black leather jacket, black jeans and a t- shirt. Black boots cover his feet and he carries a machete with him at all times.
Personality: Nixion Strange is very prone to mood swings. They can vary from becoming suddenly violent to being lost in thought to a cheerful teen. In a fight, Nixion can get overly violent and take it too far, sometimes accidentally injuring himself and his allies if in a rage which will occasionally allow him to lose control.
History: At the age of ten, Nixion was kidnapped by a Sorcerer criminal and was forcibly taught the Bone Breaking Adept discipline. This was done with an insane combination of brainwashing and extreme torture upon Nixion which eventually changed something in his mind, thus creating his sudden mood swings. Finally, at 11, Nixion was abruptly released with no warning whatsoever. For a while, he lost himself to insanity and killed heaps of people (so he is quite often hated by most)To this day Nixion attempts to fight the brainwashing done on him which also explains his over-the-top violence at times. A year after he was released, Nixion Strange was saved by Zathract Mist from a horde of zombies and the two kind of latched on to each other. It isn’t safe to say they are friends at all, but they are allies but also seem to be arguing constantly over almost everything.
Nixion Strange lives in Australia and helps Zathract Mist on cases for the Australian Sanctuary.
Yes, I'll give you mine too.
Ok. I might get you in later in the story. Do you want to be a pair, or separate?
what do you mean?
Name: Zathract Mist
Age: 15 years
Magic: Elemental + Necromancy
Adept Power: [N/A]
Gender: Male
Personality: Zathract is relatively cheerful, though is very determined when it comes to a case. He despises people who are classified as "evil" and classifies himself as one of "the good guys", as well he should. Zathract will tell an occasional joke but mostly sticks to whatever topic he and whoever else is discussing.
Appearance: Zathract has long black hair that covers the back of his head and falls over his ears, blocking them from view. His eyes are emerald green and will stare into your soul, should he deem it necessary. His clothes consist of a black jacket, black pants and a black shirt, all made by Kassd None who is one of the best tailors in Australia, his qualities rivaling Ghastly Bespoke's in Ireland.
He wears expensive sunglasses he likes to call shades and his boots are also made by Kassd.
Zathract's gloves channel his Necromancy Magic.
History: When the seven year old Zathract had accidentally stumbled across the Australian Sanctuary, he took an interest to the hidden world at once and devoted himself to magic. Reluctantly, an Elemental mage named Masoling-Grid Ragikk took him under his wing and started teaching him how to use his magic abilities after it was discovered that he had quite a lot bottled up inside him. Zathract, Jake Frox back then, went through many processes including having to choose a name. He eventually chose the name “Zathract Mist” for reasons he will not reveal. Ragikk started calling Zathract “Zath” to annoy him and Zathract begun calling Masoling-Grid “Maso” in turn. They both cared for one another and saved each other’s lives many times. Each seemed destined to be partner in detective work, yet also to drive one another up the wall as often as possible.
Zathract soon became employed by the Elders of Australia and he joined Ragikk in solving crimes and fighting various notorious villains. Unfortunately for Zathract, Masoling-Grid was killed while they battled Vathrasi, a warrior who had sided with Mevolent in the War. Vathrasi had decided to go against the Sanctuary who had done a deal with him and had taken up his old ways, moving against the Sanctuary.
Fortunately, Zathract and Ragikk alerted the Elders before his Hollow Men breached the entrance and they were able to barricade the Sanctuary and reinforce its defences. It was a fierce battle when Vathrasi himself blew down the defences blocking the entrance and somehow, Masoling-Gird ended up battling Vathrasi alone. Zathract, only being ten at the time, was thoroughly confused and had his hands full with Hollow Men himself. He tried to help his partner, but it was too late. Vathrasi had struck and Masoling-Grid Ragikk fell.
A month later the Sanctuary had been rebuilt and Vathrasi had vanished. No one knew whether or not he had been killed in the confusion, but Zathract knew he was still out there, weak and binding his time, waiting to strike again.
Zathract swore to himself to take down Vathrasi for killing his friend and mentor, but he hasn’t seen Vathrasi since that day. Instead, he continued his detective work for the Sanctuary, alone now, but just as effective as he was with Ragikk. He soon heard that Nefarian Serpine had done a similar thing against the Ireland Sanctuary a few years back. In-between solving cases and bringing down more villains, Zathract attempted to track down Vathrasi, but he hasn’t had much luck so far.
And then he had met Vai Melt, a women trained in Necromancy, while ending up in a temple in Australia when working on a case. He had heard about Necromancy before, but never had a desire to learn anything about it. Vai wasn’t like other Necromancers though. She seemed quite normal actually. She saw that he had Necromancer powers in him as well as Elemental, something that surprised Zathract quite a bit considering that he seemed quite talented in that area of magic already. Vai Melt taught him some basic Necromancy and he quickly excelled in the subject, choosing to channel the power through his gloves, something he would always keep on. The only problem with them now was they kept his hands thoroughly cold due to the death magic running through them. Though Vai could never replace Ragikk, she was still a comfort to him none the less.
Zathract Mist continues to work for the Australian Sanctuary and works as a detective still.
DONE, NIX!!!

Yeah ireland does rock! Two of my favourite authors live there!
Sorry double post.
One triple post and one double post within minutes of each other? Weird.
Yes, Star, I'm in Washington State, in the US. I want to be in Ireland so badly, though! I want an Irish accent! Irish accents are so cool!
Irish accents are AMAZING!!!!!
I can almost sort of do an English accent, although it probably sounds crappy to actual English people, and I can do a super terrible Irish accent... I hate my American accent. It's so boring compared to UK accents.
Once I tricked someone into thinking I was English, though, and it was hilarious.
Lol do you want me to record my voice and send it to you to laugh at???
Naw, it's fine, although I probably would start laughing... But that's because I think it's funny that you even offered to do it!
Actually, on that thought... YES! I WANNA HEAR A REAL ENGLISH ACCENT!
Can I have ur email so I can send you it Please!!
Sorry, accidentally closed comment window.
Yeah I've sent it!!! Check ur emails!!
Okay! And I'm gonna delete my email off here...
Sure!!!
I'm from england val v. Yorkshire. And there are lots of different english accents, we don't all sound the same.
Rim are you from the lake district or the peak district? I've forgotten.
Peak district!!!!
Okay. . . so you're from the peak district, and shadow's from the lake district. I'll try to remember that.
*bursts out laughing* Magic unicorns!
Yeah I'm the one that doesnt fail!! My friend is the one with the deepish laugh!!!
You guys were acting like me and Amanda! Although, whenever there's any video or audio things with me and Amanda, we usually sound super weird on purpose, because we're laughing so hard...
Yeah were crazy!!! My friends name is Lily and I recorded that secretly so she doesnt know I have it!!!
Hi VALICE!!!
And Val you can send that to anyone at all!! Send it to Amanda if you want!!!
I'll probably have her hear it, because she'll love it.
Hi valice!
No my comments won't disappear! I'm on a computer!
(For those who don't know, when i'm on my phone, my comments disappear every time you refresh the page. It's very irritating)

Double post AGAIN???
Maybe there's something wrong with the computer as well. That would be just my luck.
Ooh! Maybe there the superllamas are using their powers to stop me commenting! Think about it - I was fine before i started destroying llamas!
Now you're comments won't disappear but you're comments turn up twice!

That double post was my fault. I accidently pressed the button twice.

RIM, WHAT DOES MAGICAL RICE DO?????
Yep, I just needed to find my phone. I used my mumzy's phone to call mine, and I just listened for the sound of the Ireland national anthem, because that's my ringtone!
Um it stops metal or any material from piercing his skin... So HA

Kewl Rim!!
Hi again!
Yeah nj i've read clockwork angel. Cassandra clare's books are cool. Have you read her mortal instruments series?
@rim: Damn! No metal??? *puts knife away and runs of looking for better weapon*
AWESOME RIM!!
THAT IS TRULY AWESOME!!
I noticed the age thing too!!! It makes no sense!
No nj because she was 16 in mortal coil
@Star. No I only just started the infernal Devices Last night!!
But it is soo Good!!
But once I have read Clockwork Prince... I will start City of Bones!!
Cool pic rim!
Star She was 15!!
In the Re-Print She is 15 AND Derek Said her Birthdat is in August!! in Dark Days, which is based in September/October Time and she is 15 there She how can She possibly be 16 in Death Bringer if it is Based in May of the following year!!
thanks!! im trying to make the flame green...
In the new paperback of Mortal Coil she's still fifteen. In the origninal Mortal Coil she's 16.
Derek Even said she was 15 in Mortal Coil!!
The Infernal devices are a prequel series to the mortal instruments series. Mortal instuments is set in the US, in the present day. There is a character called jace who is really like will. I think Will was based on Jace.
I've read all the mortal instuments and clockwork angel.
Have you read Clockwork Prince yet??
In the copy of mortal coil i got from the library it said she was 16.
That's the Hard Back!!
In the Re-Print... She's 15!!
And the Re-Prints have Typo Errors fixed!!
Not all of them! In Playing With Fire it says 'Skudluggery' on page 177!
No i haven't read clockword prince yet. Give me a few days and i probably will have. I'll get it from the library.
I know not all of the Typo's have been fixed. But most of them!!
I have to go, bye!
Yep, in my mortal coil she's 16.
Quote: "He's eighteen, you're sixteen," Gordan said. "That's not drastically older."
Page 42, hardback english version. And the 'drastically' was meant to be in italics.
BYE!!
Star in the REPRINT!!
I will take a Photo and show you!!
Bye val v!
I'm actually meant to be doing homework now. But i keep ending up doing this.
Lawl!!
Bye Val!!!!
im going to so BYE!!!
We know that Star. We do. I do, in particular. I've already had this conversation with someone, and I was on your side. In the original Mortal Coil, it says:
"He's eighteen, you're sixteen," Gordon said. "That's not drastically older."
But in the new one, it says:
"He's eighteen, you're nearly sixteen," Gordon said. "That's not drastically older."
Derek changed it in the new paperbacks.
I know. I'm just pointing out. I would take a picture of mine if i was on my phone, but if i was on my phone my comments would disappear.
I can sill be here a few more minutes...
And I'm gone again. Bye!
Well, the people who reprinted it were stupid. It makes sense in the old ones. Thanks, val v. And bye.
