How odd... I just finished reading that when you posted.
*suspicious face*
Are you stalking me?
Staking you, nooo I'm not *trys to look innocent*
You know, Derek, next year when I go to Ireland (I don't know if it'll be April or June or some other time entirely, but it'll be next year) me, you, and Matt Smith should have an awesome people party. Because we are all awesome. And that would be SO fun.
Oh, god I'm gonna pee my pants any second now!
~skully
OMG DEREK COULD BE WATCHIUNG US COMMENT HI DEREK!
Oh, no, I was wondering if Derek was stalking me. But now I'm wondering if you are... *takes a step back from Lauren*
Oh my god YAY!!!
Derek, by the way, when I told Amanda that you called her China Pleasant the look of irritation towards me was pricelessly hilarious... Thank you SO much for saying that; I'm never going to stop bugging her about it.
AWESOMEE!!!
Laure what have i told you about stalking (shakes head)
TOP 20!!! YES GO TO MY BLOG!!!! PLEASE DEREK!!!

http://editorsarticle.blogspot.ca/2012/03/skulduggery-pleasant-book-7-kingdom-of.html
Please read it. You too derek (shifty)
I for one would never handle a fat man who thought he was a butterfly.
That was by far the strangest thing I've read in the series. Haha. Kudos to your Derek.

On a completely unrelated note, Les Miserables is coming to theaters this Christmas!!!
Same here Kimberly
Yay, can't wait!!
*whispers* Whos that?
I was almost crying with laughter while I read the chapter...
COOK CAME FOURTH!
OMG I checked this post like at 11 and nothing was there and I checked back again saying there was a short story so I read and I came back and I realised that I could've been like one of the first to comment. DAMN!
Same here Valkyrie. How she handles a fat man who thinks he is a butterfly, I have no clue.
Yes cook did come fourth Violet
Whoa, extremely long username. O.o
And just wonderful. I've got Les Miserables on my mind now.
:O how dare someone is asking Derek about alpacas! That is naughty! How dare you!
YESS LAUREN!! gtg bye bye BYE DEREK
And yes, isn't my username just AWESOME!
OMGG The Awesomely Awesome Awesome Llama who Eats Awesome FREAKFAN! LLAMA!!!! Same, i posted at the same time as Valkyrie but i was beaten *sobs*
Hi!
I almost didn't believe what I was reading for a few minutes. I had to reread over parts pretty often so that chapter took a few minutes longer than usual to read... The fat guy was so funny.
I have never been this close to the top........LOVE THE NAME!!!
Thank-you!
How dare you like alpacas!
*stares evilly*
Damn you didn't explode
Bye Violet
Hehehe... *laughs manically for beating Lauren*
Just kidding :D
And yea, unless you haven't figured it out by now, I LOVE LLAMAS!
Ahahah yes, i love alpacas. They are awesome
Hi Valkyrie!
I think Nix will be happy about the werewolves, Derek.
I wonder if there's such thing as werefish... I feel like if I say I believe Skulduggery, Skulduggery will say "Good God, Valkyrie, that would be silly".
Ahaha Valkyrie. I shall have my revenge mwhahahah
heheh joking.
Hiya FreakFan!
Hmm, llamas or alpacas, that is the question! Which one spits? I'm on the side of the one that spits.
No! Alpacas are stupid and small and don't spit. Llamas are awesomer, are evil, and spit. And MY llama is pink with purple polka dots, spits out lemon acid, poops out poisonous skittles and is a llamacorn.
LLAMAS SPIT!
*screams in excitement*
Alpacas spit!!!
Just read the chapter! I'm a butterfly too! And a werewolf
Speaking of werewolves, Nix is ike a semi-sensitive
Actually alpacas don't spit at all.
That's why there are more alpaca farms than llama farms because llamas are more vicious because they spit and make little children cry.
They don't spit at humans, they spit at other alpacas.
Nixion was right....WEREWOLVES. I wan to find a werefish.
Well...they both spit so...I'm on Team Camel!
Yes, alpacas occasionally spit
want*
Okay . . . . That was a pretty smart move. But I'm still on Team Llamacorn!
I prefer alpacas
Yes Eve is right. WOW There is a team camel?!? How do you join?
And also there are 4 types of llama:
Vicuna
Guanaco
Alpaca
Llama
Same Eve. Alpacas are awesome.
Okay gotta go now
Bye!
Sniff Sniff.
Why doesn't anyone see that Llamas are better?
*Tear rolls down cheek*
You guys are mean!
In like 8 mins it will be exactly 32 days until Kingdom of the Wicked is coming out. YAY!
Hheheheh llamas are....awesome too
Bye Eve
Woop Woop?
"Tina you fat lard come get some dinner!"
That llama quote is awesome. Just like this one.
"Shhh... Do you hear that? That's the sound of forgiveness."
"That's the sound of people drowing!"
"No, forgiveness. Screaming, and then silence."
I like llamas better.
Camels are a package deal. They spit (in a sense) and they're oddly shaped with their humps.
Acually it is 69/70 days til KOTW comes out.
Oh! I love llamas with hats! Not as much as charlie the unicorn though
*sighs*
AAhahah Valykrie. Yes camels rule over all.
I wore a cape to school today!
Llamacorns are AWESOME. Geez they're Llama's with a horn like a unicorn. Duh
LLAMAS ARE THE BEST!
LLAMAS ARE THE BEST!
LLAMAS ARE THE BEST!
LLAMAS ARE THE BEST!
LLAMAS ARE THE BEST!
LLAMAS ARE THE BEST!
LLAMAS ARE THE BEST!
Charlie the unicorn is epic, he wins.
FreakFan, we've made it rule that you can't multiple post unless by accident because there's not enough comment space.
*coughs*
*coughs*
That would be cool wearing a cape to school
I wore a cape, got "Ivy" written on my face, played on bouncy houses with a broken toe, read the first chapter and got first comment... It has been a fun day.
Oops sorry I thought maybe something was wrong but gtg byee!~
Bye FreakFan!
Hahah sounds fun :)
does anyone know when the winners of the 10 times awesome comption is announced?
Bye
Whoa, wait. All of that happened at school?
Nope. They still haven't even announced the winners for the contest before that.
Oh okay, thank you.
Not reading the chapter and getting first comment, or breaking my toe (I did that last night), but the bouncy houses, cape, and writing was at school.
Brb going to get brecky
Wow, your school sounds fun. I'm out of school now. It's on to high school for me!
And you have no idea how mad I was when I realized there was a contest and I missed it. I was reduced to slapping my keyboard.
This is so funny....
Anybody play Runes of Magic?
My entry couldn't enter the contest because I didn't know how to make it into a text file or whatever! I tried emailing it to skulduggerypleasant@harpercollins.co.uk but I doubt it'll be entered... *sad face*
That was just EPIC!!! cannot wait for the rest. Derek you are truly a genius. :D
Oh my god!! *Runs to go and read*
Before that, I just want to say that I throughly enjoyed your event at the Dalkey Book Festival last Sunday! I was the one who pointed out that 'that isn't even her real face' in regards to my friend... Also, you inspired my friends and I to smuggle a helium balloon out of the hall... we wouldn't even have seen them if you hadn't pointed them out. I hid it under my coat, if you're wondering.
Now, to read!
*sighs* I swear everything good, interesting, or exciting happens in New York (you have no idea how badly I want to go there, BROADWAY!!!) or the U.K. (awesome accents and the West End.)
Mr. Landy you fiend lol
You wait until I get stuck into my writing to post up this.
Ah well, I guess now my rhythm has been broken because I NOW HAVE TO GO AND READ THIS AWESOME CHAPTER he he he he
*skips away*
I'm back
Anyone here...?
No...
Yep, just writing
Yaaaaaaaaaaaay! I got into eighth grade honors English and Social Studies!
I am vaguely ashamed to say that it took me a few minutes to find the link to the new chapter. Also, why is the US site way fancier than the others?
I throughly enjoyed that chapter... except for the images that I'm sure will haunt both me, and Valkyrie for a long time... A butterfly? Really?
Totally awesome and finally 7 books later, there is a werewolf.
Love it!!!!
Morning all by the way :)
Wow, I have a 3.7 GPA. That, right there, is proof that I am smart. *feels intelligent*
Have you ever gotten a 4.0? It's impossible to keep it at a perfect 4.
There's a lot of people on this post that I haven't met yet.
Does anybody else want to grace me with their opinion of my struggling story? I can do with all the honest views that I can get.
My friend Emily has had a 4.0 all year... But she didn't have to take Algebra as a seventh grader. She's in a normal math class, so she has easier work.
But as for me, I've never had a 4.0
I've only gotten one 4.0. Then a B+ in Literature 'cause I had to a stupid playwright thingy (it was about magical polarbears and a gender confused polar bears). And then pneumonia stuck me in the last month of school and that was not a happy time....hospital food is disgusting.
But I'm sure high school'll be a blast.
Oh my gosh, I have never had that many typos in one post.
I'm gonna go practice my writing.
1 1 2 1 1 2 3 2 1 1 2 3 4 3 2 1 1 2 3 4 5 4 3 2 1 2 3 4 5 5 4 5 5 4 3 4 5 5 4 3 2 3 4 5 5 4 3 2 1 2 3 4 5 4 3 2 1.
Sorry I am dum, but what is a 4.0
high school is fun Kimberly, very different from primary, but fun.
A 4.0 GPA (Grade Point Average) is the highest GPA you can get, and it's super hard to.
Ah okay.
hmmm... well my silly American computer goes all wonky whenever i try to open the first chapter.
looks like i'll just have to wait for the book to come in the mail.
Is it bad that it seems to me like we were reading the previews of Death Bringer just a few months ago?
Is this a sign that I'm getting old?
.__________.
Gonna go read that thing RIGHT NOW.
I'm not even that old, though.
I can't even legally get a paid job yet.
Dang... My friend told me to Google "Doctor Who Experience" and now I wish I lived in England for that...
The line "But Jerry just giggled and jiggled" has put me into an insane fit of laughter...
hello
just read the chapter
i laughed so hard i couldn't breathe
*starts laughing when remembers the butterfly*
hello???
Hi! I was making my sister read part of the chapter... She actually knows who Skulduggery and Valkyrie are, because she's reading Mortal Coil, and she thought this one sounded awesome...
Werefish. Are werefish real?
werefish
they might be real
that would be funny if a werefish makes an appearence in the book
*laughs at the possibility*
I'm scared that they aren't real, so I'm afraid to ask...
Ooooh, guess what?
ihfaqifnahkjowidfuvhnldhvboih
OMG OMG OMG OMG
I LOVE YA DEREK!!!
what Val??
hello Alex!
I'm getting another black coat! And this one looks almost EXACTLY like the one Valkyrie has in Mortal Coil!
noooooo!!!
can you but me one??
*smiles*
*buy
Sorry, no... I have to spend my other $100 on SP/Doctor Who stuffs... Like another sonic screwdriver...
how i envy you...
*glares*
*looks back at Miss Cain and tries to keep a straight face* *looks away and starts laughing*
*starts laughing cuz its contagious*
Nooooooo! The laughing disease!
*puts laughing vaccine in arm*
Okay, now my arm won't laugh!
OHMYGOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Christchurch! That's a two hour drive away from where I live. That's way better than having to buy plane tickets. Hopefully, I'll be able to see you at the airport in chch, Derek. You know, a couple of days ago I had a dream and that was exactly what happened. And then you bought me KFC. Best dream ever.
I know this is a bit of a delayed reaction, but I haven't been on for a looong time due to lack of computerness.
Thanks for coming to Chch, Derek!
Oh, and Hi everyone else.
*manages to stop laughing to breathe*
ok ok, i need to breathe so i can stay alive
*breathes*
ok, im going to go back to laughing now
*laughs*
Brb. I only just read the blog post.
hi Myth
(can i call you that??)
... You worry me, Val.
Yes. Yes you can.
Haloo!!
hey Thrust!!
Sorry. The bell just went. I gotta go. Bye!!!
I worry lots of people. Welcome to the club!
*hands over a t-shirt that says 'The Val-worries-me-club*
I creep ppl out.
Bye Myth, even though I wasn't really on at the same time as you!
officially. Before I wasn't sure, but now I know.
Well, you were just now. You can still say bye.
bye Myth!
Well, I did say bye. *eats a tree*
*faints* omgomgomg omg
Wow, I made it before 200. Cool. Hi guys!
*sigh*
Sorry. I won't be on much for a day or two. Until I get settled and all. And I get my computer out. might be here later or tomorrow. Can't be sure.
Oh and Derek, I am SO reading that once I get on a computer!
It's weird to maybe be in time with people like the Aussies. I'm used to it being around night when they come on, but now we might be on the same time or something. That's gonna take some getting used to.
Like I said, one comment. Sorry guys. Bye!
Tell me, my companions of blogland, what you think of these first few sentences of my newest project:
"One cannot get a full grasp on magic, no matter how hard they try. They cannot resist trying to unravel its secrets. And once they have entered that realm, it will never let them go. Magic is mysterious, alluring, and enthralling. Their magic was just that. Even if it was fake."
hi/bye Lav!!
hi Zaf!!
thats awesome Kimberly!!
ha. I like the last sentence. It makes it all worth it.
Oooooh... Coolio.
Hiya....
I love doing that.
I think in almost every story I've written in a while has had that kinda thing. It's fun
Yola Zafira.
And gracias. I'm determined to actually finish this project.
I usually never finish what i start :/
Me neither.
My birthday is june 25.
I got a towel today.
*uses it to wipe tears of sadness away*
3 more days Thrust!
(Not for the towel, that thing's awesome. I just hate how I never finish what I start. NEVER)
yes... 3 MORE DAYS. Then I'm fifteen. Just to be sure - you can't fly yet when your fifteen. No matter how much you think your a butterfly. RIGHT??
no, not yet Thrust
UNLESS you are a butterfly anyway
A butterfly who can use a keyboard? I'd be impressed.
oh.
Yes, well. I'm not a butterfly.
*ribbit* I'm a fox
Oh, that makes much more sense.
i agree Kim, it does
Derek,
Three things: I saw, I read, I loved :D
Although, now i find myself wishing the book was coming out tomorrow :P
Thank you for making me even more obsessed *hands Derek a cupcake*
Hi to everyone whos on! i cant stay, just thought i'd pop on to see if he had posted again :P *hands them all cookies*
Bye all! *waves*
Im wanting to read the whole book :/
Hmmm... It is hard to write short stories...
When I get the book I'm reading it in one day, just like I always do when I get a new Skulduggery book. I did it for Dark Days, Mortal Coil, Death Bringer, and I intend to keep up the tradition.
I read them all in one day :D TEOTW in an hour
I read TEOTW in an hour... Amanda made me read the whole thing out loud to her, because I read faster. She kept making fun of me everytime Valkyrie did something ridiculous :/
same here Zaf!
hi/bye Raven!
nearly.... done.... chapter..... 9.....
When I go to the store, I'm going ask for it in hardcover. Last time they swomehow got me to buy the paperback DB, and they sold it to me at the price of the hardback. I wanted to kill them. But I resisted
Un?
Uno
And I still haven't got TEOTW
good job at resisting Thrust
Dos
I do my best, Miss Cain.
