Righto, I can finally reveal the details for the A/NZ Down Under Tour. Most of the days will be taken up visiting schools, so I'm only listing the public events which will occur in the evenings and at the weekends.
For the public signings, all you have to do is turn up and I'll sign as much as possible in the time I have- but for the public events, it might be a good idea to contact the bookshop/library/whatever as soon as possible, in order to book a place.
The Ireland and UK details will be posted when I have them.
Oh, and for those of you who entered the little short story competition on the Skulduggery website, I've just read through the finalists (30 of them) and the winners will be announced before the weekend. Some truly great work in there...

Wow, walking into trees definitely do something to your head...
*flutters down to tree*
Phew.
Yeah, you can't be her Miss. Sorry
OF COURSE THERE IS BLACK!!! Kallista Pendragon - The Beautiful Goddess Queen. She's be on the blog for, literally, years.
She asked Derek to put her in DB and he did, if you're wondering about that. THAT'S why her names in it.
Oh, btw, I'm writing a Lord Vile Fan-fic
sorry about her
shes an idiot
It'd be like my true name being Lynxia
Or someone Else's first name being Eve.
I AM THE ONLY EVE IN THE SCHOOL! That other little girl must remain as Evie!
You CAN'T be Kal.
*is a safe distance from Vile*
Um... Any chance you want to go normal-person again? Hmm?
Or someone's true name being Sparky!!!!
WB Black!
*sits against tree*
*rubs head*
*groans*
I've yet to become angry, Val. S'fine. Want a cupcake?
Yeah. Maybe
Or mayeb I'll kill everyone but Val, because I'm not in the mood for a rematch, I'm in the mood for killing
*sighs*
What are we talking about?
I want to go normal person!
I could become Mahogany, but she's practically - practically - the same as me. Kinda. No, not really
*looks at Vile*
you know what? im going to find somewhere to hide...
*backs away slowly*
I love cupcakes, thank you. *eats cupcake*
Um, since I'm Val, I think I'm going to tell you, Vile, that you can't just kill everyone, even if you leave me alive...
*gives Vile superllamas* Kill them:)
