For all you readers in Dublin/Wicklow, I'm going to be appearing at the Dalkey Book Festival this Sunday at 12 PM...
And does anyone know what happened to the Skulduggery Forums? It seems to have been replaced by a... web-sitey... thing...
And because I have nothing further to add, here are two well-timed photos...

I really didn't get to experience the whole 'recovery' thing with him, it just finished up too quickly
Me: Hm? Oh, it ended. :/
Exactly! L hasn't read the books!
No spoilers, please!
how hard will it be for us Aussiminions not to say any spoilers about KOTW
you BETTER NOT, Cain... *eye twitches*
I'm staying well away from here until I finish KOTW
And I won't give any spoilers about it, I pwomiss
its gonna bubble up inside me
but i wont say ANYTHING
promise
SPOILER ALERT FOR MOCKINGJAY
I didn't even realise Coin had died till I went "okay, I rushed the ending of that book, I'm gonna go over it" :P
Shows how much attention I pay.
derek has two blog posts for people who read the books, and those who haven't eve.
and if it bubbles up too much, i'll go annoy some other kid in my class who reads SP and talk about it with them
I'm going to vanish next month until I have read KOTW, I think...
Also, does anyone know where I could get the Oz/NZ version of TEOTW for pretty cheap? I can't afford the one I found, yet...So I am looking for a cheaper one...I have 2 UK versions of it, though..
I'll be gone again by the time Kingdom of the Wicked is released...
I thought Snow had fallen and died.. Until i like read back over it when it said snow was alive and laughing.
L, email.
If it bubbles up too much, I'll be leaving ;P
Sorry, but nope. Noooo spoilers.
you can get it for about $5 here
(aussie dollars)
You know what I didn't like about Mockingjay? That final battle part towards the end. I didn't realize it was supposed to be the EPIC PART WHERE THERE ARE NO SOUND EFFECTS JUST EPIC MUSIC until later.
Me: Oh, right....cool.
Well. I've returned! And nobody missed me... *feels sad*
I know, Phoenix, but I'm not risking it :D
prim died then..
We all missed you in our hearts, Birdie!
*gives up about the spoilers and mutters darkly*
I got TEOTW UK version for £0.80 :)
we are all not so great at keeping spoilers secret
DAAAAW... Thanks Eve.
No..
Mist, email me.
Mist, you know you say 'mutters darkly' almost every time you come here?
I have 2 TEOTW UK versions.
I'd be willing to send one to an Aussie if they wanted one?
I'M not spoilering.
Btw, I'm changing my fav books list to put in my favourite books at different ages.
He's a darkly muttering person.
It's true Birdie. There was a deadly st-
OW. My scalp.
Probably.
Kay, Phoenix. I mean the...Flame.
YES PLEASE L!!
are the covers any different??
and whats the difference between them if it isnt the covers??
Ok, Flame is Phoenix, I'm Birdie.
Me, L! Me! :D
*has been looking for an Aus cover of EOTW for ages now*
Sent, Flame.
Just want to get that straight. Everybody clear?
Miss, the other version doesn't have the short story and instead has deleted scenes and stuff
yep, clear here
Never mind...
I mutter darkly when me am annoyzigged.
PEOPLE, NO SPOILERS. PLEEEEEASE. *threatwnong glare*
oooooh
hell yeah L!!
Kay, Birdy.
Thank you, Miss Cain!
*damn you slow computer...
Clear! I never called you Phoenix anyway. It was either Birdie or Mith
*threatening
no spoilers from me
The covers are the same.
The story in the back, after TEOTW is different...I'd really like it if one of you had 2 copies of the Oz/Nz version of the book would send me one in return, if possible?
If not I'd have to keep mine- because my mum hates me sending people random gifts...
i could buy another one, yeah
All my friends call me Birdie. Jessica came up with it... I think L has met her before?
*cries*
Whyyyyyyyy is my computer so slooooowwwwwwww.
Our comments are clogging up your computer, Adra :)
My computer is hell on these things...
Yes! I remember you as Birdie!
I blame YOU!
MEOWMEOWMEOWMEOWMEOWMEOWMEOW!!!
Oh, duh, of course. *hits head*
I kept thinking there was a different cover.
Yes, I have 2 copies, L!
???
Well, yes, AND I'm trying to make a new blog for my artwork :D
noooo!
want a UK version!!
Sorry, Ad.
*is writing my competition entry*
I kicked a tree. Because it was annoying me. And I hurt my foot. BAD tree.
im listening to Fantastic Baby
again for about the 100th time
Haha. COMPETITION!!! I'm sooo afraid mine's going to suck. And that would be bad... D;
Msd from now on, akay? Love you all *hugs*
*shrugs* It's July.
*raises eyebrow*
ok Eve...
I just want to say thank you to you all for being...Well...For being you. You all have seriously cheered me up, especially Mist- his e-mails always make me smile when they're random and out of the blue! *huggles everyone*
where do you find the paperbacks in Aus??
*hugs*
*blinks* July is the year of hugging. You have to hug at least ten different people or you'll get bad luck for the rest of the year.
What, do you think I actually WANTED to hug you? *scoffs poshly*
I'd rather hug a malnourished porcupine.
They're so cute trust me
I hugged them first, Luce! You can't do that!
*blinks*
...Anyway, msd from now on, guys.
http://followthepen.blogspot.com/

Oh wait. No, I did. xD
FEZ!!
FEZ FEZ FEZ FEZ FEZ!!!!!!!!!!
Ooohhhhhhhhh. New page.
*hdeadwall*
I need to learn to notice.
I need to make up for my last dedication, too...
Why Miss Cain, are YOU a DW fan????
Oh yeah, Mist-
SPEECH SPEECH SPEECH SPEECH SPEECH!!!

i havent watched all the episodes but hell yeah!
L, my iPod isnt letting me reply to your email!
*hits iPod*
Sorry!
YES, MIST. DEDICATIONS.
Oh...dedication.
Uh...okay...
I got a blank e-mail. *laughs*
It's okay, Mist! :)
Haha. YYYYYAAAAAYYYYYYY!!! Cain, you're my new best friend ;P
Who's your favorite doctor
Sorry for distobating, back nowwww . . .
mine is David Tennant
i LOVE HIM!!!! But, I will admit, I love Matt Smith just as much...
Christopher Eccleston was pretty bad, though. O.o
In my opinion
my fav partner is Donna
whos yours??
Star! *hugs*
ALSO, TENNANT IS AMAZING. MINE. *smiles and walks away*
I'll shut up..
*has sudden urge to be a troll*
I dedicate this page to people who have been hurt by others who have told lies. Lies that were big and lies that were used in a bad way.
People lie for a heap of different reasons and most of the time none of it is necessary. Lying is nearly always a bad thing and I'm sure people know what they're getting themselves into when they tell a lie. For that, a lot of liars should be despised. Only if a large lie is absolutely and unequivocally needed to protect yourself or another from harm should lying be acceptable, and most of the time it really, really isn't.
As for the people who are hurt by lies, they are really not deserving of the cruelty of it all. At all.
Too many have been hurt by lies and too many have told them. Don't do it...
I know that the people of Blogland are far too caring and nice to do such things as large and horrible lies, but...its been done...And it most definitely shouldn't happen again.
I would also like to officially apologize for every single horrible, disgusting, despicable lie I have ever told and that I sincerely regret any such thing that I have done...
...Mm...
*sits down*
WHERE THE HECK DID YOU GET GREEN AND BLUE PAGES ON THE BOOKS?!?!
L! I AM OFFICIALY JEALOUS!!
My email app isn't workingggggg.
So nice of it to make an extra special effort just when I need it most. *sarcasm*
good ded Mist, good ded
*goes back to gawking at L's books*
Okay, you can have him. i'll have Matt Smith ;P
I love Donna, but Rory and Amy are probably my favorite...
Haha I love this: milks shake milk shake. No, not milk? Uh... shake shake shake cocktail shake. What, do you want a Harvey Wallbanger?
Harvey Wallbanger? How is that one word?
i know how you feel Star
Wow, Mist...Just...Wow..
*applauds*
I TOLD YOU I CAN'T DED. *points at Mist's dedications*
Why wasn't he nominated for best dedications?
IS RAISING EYEBROW AT DED IN BLOGLAND
IS TRYING NOT TO CRACK UP IN REAL LIFE
*raises glass* hear hear!!!
Nice ded, Mist!!!
*whines*
L, i want your bookssssssssss!
Cain, I've had them for a while...*laughs*
I still need the ones with orange pages...*frowns*
IF ANYONE SEES IT LEMME KNOW! I'd more than gladly trade one of my TFO blue page paperbacks for it!
*raises imaginary glass*
hear hear!
ohhh!!
im going looking L!
like i'll be able to find any in Aus...
*scowls*
Liesssss . . .
I understand that some lies are needed but yeah, you're right, we should try not to lie. *makes New Minute's Resolution not to lie as much*
I'm perfectly happy with the amount of books I have. I wasn't particularly happy when my friend ruined my brand new SP new cover book
HOW DO YOU HAVE COLORED PAGES???
*laughs*
Okay then, Cain.
HAVE FUN! I spent so long looking for them.
I accidentally bought my second blue paged TFO....*laughs slightly*
My Faceless Ones book has colored pages. I prefer good old' faded white
I want the UK covers...
My parents think I'm mad for wanting several copies of the same books.
I told them I am. :D
I feel your Pain, Eve. I got DD for Christmas, and I let my brother borrow it. He left it somewhere dangerous, and Gatorade and water spilled on it. I still have it, but it's in about 10 pieces
im alright with my amount of SP books, but i feel like theres a hole where the other covers of the series go
*laughs and points at Mist's comment*
My parents are only letting me get them in the hope that I'll sell them when I am older because my collection is actually worth A LOTTTTTT.
I have spent about...£100 pounds on them all, I think and it's worth far more than that!
*has Green Day song in head*
What the hell am I going to wear to that party...
I don't know if you people realise how I actually try to act on deds like that. I don't usually just read them, say wow and then forget about them.
im going to write my birthday list now and its going to coinsist of other SP book covers and SP related stuff and a whole lotta DW series bought from the ABC shop
I've only got the series once. The only repeats I have are book 1 and book 4. Technically I have two copies of 2... But one of them is dead.
oh!
which song Eve??
I always remember dedications. Dedications are usually so inspiring and it's as though we're teaching each-other things that we never want to forget and every time someone makes a reference to one of my dedications I actually feel myself tear up with pride...
Well said, Luce ;D too true.
*prances around, swishing dress*
la.. la la... La la la
I'm pretty sure the song is called Holiday, but it could be another of their songs....
I love the Gone covers as well, as we're talking about coloured pages. It's kind of contradictory, though - (SLIGHT SPOILER) "oh, let's write these books about kids coughing up their lungs and being eaten alive by bugs and give it nice pretty red pages".
I'm terrible at dedications. I don't even know where that thing came from.
...Well, I DO, but I didn't really mean for that to come out the way it did.
I think dedications are FUNNY
Holiday is a good song
if it mentions stuff like putting a plastic bag on a monument, thats Holiday
Mm-hmmm, mist
HOLIDAY IS A GREAT SONG!
Did Mist poof?
AND I LOVE HG ORIGINAL COVERS. I have the books, I just need to read them >.<
i think dedications are insirational, unless they're a bit like mine
struggling
*inspirational
No, Mist didn't poof.
AND YOU'RE GREAT AT DEDICATIONS!
I hate MOVIE COVERS. Original covers are always so much better.
i have the Hunger Games original covers!!
i they're the ones i hope we're talking about
I wasn't really listening to the lyrics, but my bro was playing it on his guitar, and I was singing along in gibberish
*looks at Eve* You're as bad aa Rim. She went to see the Hunger Games and laughed her head off when Rue died.
@Zath: it was a good ded. Really.
I love original covers of books. *points at profile picture*
Especially the Disc World Original Covers! <3
I go for 5 minutes...
@Zath talking about movie covers: YES! I KNIW! ORIGINAL COVERS ARE BETTER!!!!!
ok Adra!
I laughed at that part in Spiderman 2 where Mary Jane was about to get crushed by a wall and Toby screamed. :D
And that part where Norman shouted AVENGE ME!
*has only just now noticed L's profile oic*
. . .
*kicks self*
OUCH!
Bye Adra!
And I laughed in a movie where everyone was getting killed by wolves. But you have to admit, that WAS funny
haha.... Now that you think, that's hilarious.
Anyone see the Amazing SpiderMan?
Bye, Adra!
not here Adra
WHY IS EVERYONE SAYING BYE TO ME???
OOOH... and it looks good ;)
PH MY GOD I LOVE THE ANAZING SPIDERMAN
But most of all...
I love Andrew Garfield! <3
cuz you said that you go for 5 mins
So yes, I've seen it :)
noo... I meant "I leave for five minutes... And this is what happens"
OMG Andrew Garfield is soooooo cute :) and he has an accent. double win.
I'll be honest, I still like Alex Pettyfer. He has an accent, also.
QUADRUPLE WIN
I'm confuddled...
*frowns*
I'll make a post about my extra TEOTW copy, now...
guys, you know Derek just posted
I am here fellow minions, I am just writing Chapter 8
But I am still here, do still talk to me
Haha bye. NEW POST
As one of your Ameriminions (Did I get that right?), I can say my address in London (a Starbucks address I found on the Internet) was good enough for Amazon, and they happily ship books to my 'alternative address' outside the UK. I've enjoyed all of your books and can't wait for the next one.
Oh no! What happened to the SP Forums???O.o
Nice Photos, btw^^
I LOVE THE FEZ!
in an interveiw, the people where like, if we let matt put on a fez, he wont ever take OFF the fez.
Thats why they murdered the fez.
Hi Derek, I was at the book signing in Liverpool, Waterstones, I was the one with the skull keyring on my bag. I forgot to ask you a question; I like to write stories like you, but I often run out of inspiration, so I was wondering if you could help me?
Boop.
Hm.
That cat needs a spacecraft of some form.
In my opinion.
Anyway.
