Down Under Tour 2012

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...

Lynxia Lost said...

Okay, me back. Kal was in DB? Where abouts?

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

*sort of wakes up* *groans*


Agh... The use of a lot of magic and a bit of kindness is almost deadly... Especially the kindness part...

Star Inkbright said...

I am inky, L.

I'm also wondering where DID the time go. It's three hours later.

. . . Does everybody get the SP reference?

Nixion Strange said...

Hi Lynxia
I am exhausted after that fight...

Stephanie Edgley said...

*Looks at stars*

Nixion Strange said...

What's a good name for a male Necromancer, 14 or 15?

Stephanie Edgley said...
This comment has been removed by the author.
Lynxia Lost said...

Necromancer? Give me a minute...

Star Inkbright said...

Um, she was, like, a Santuary agent. *checks photo I have of the page*

Nixion Strange said...

Wow, almost another hundred words... time flies...

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

Necromancer? DEATH.


Sorry... I had to

Nixion Strange said...

Necromancer isn't obsessed like the rest, he's rebelious

Luciana said...

LYNX! *tacklehugs*
Now I don't have to be afraid that you'll try to kill me so I can tacklehug you!

Kal was in DB. *nods* A sanctuary official just before they raid the Necromancy safe house and she got excited about killing Melancholia..

I believe, anyway.

Star Inkbright said...

*is looked at by Dark*

I know, right! But don't put his name on the internet, Dark. Delete that comment.

Stephanie Edgley said...

*Throws cream at star hits her in the face*

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

Kal's on page 409

Lynxia Lost said...

*hugs back* Hey Luce!

I'll go look, I can't remember. I've read a lot of stuff since last time I read DB...

Lynxia Lost said...

Name... Fredrick Power?

Nixion Strange said...

Hmm... No, not quite...

Star Inkbright said...

YUCK! *wipescream off face with expression if disgust* I hate cream. *throws pesto pasta at Dark*

Stephanie Edgley said...

Star you have cream on your face

Star Inkbright said...

Ask Vlaedr, Nix. I call him the Name Master.

Stephanie Edgley said...

*dogars pasta makes wings appear and sits on cloud*

Star Inkbright said...

Dark you have pesto pasta on your face:)

Coz we're sisters we know what foods each other don't like . . .

Star Inkbright said...

*sticks head in lake to wash cream off*

*notices lake is still black with ink* Ah yes. *cleans it*

Star Inkbright said...

. . . I'll bbs.

Stephanie Edgley said...

*shrugs*

Didn't hit me.

Stephanie Edgley said...

*shrugs*

Didn't hit me.

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

*starts freaking out for real*


What the hell is that sound...?

Luciana said...

/Please don't look at me. I hate this feeling consuming me, right now
An' I don't wanna talk
The pain you're inflicting on me~
It's way too much for me to cope and so I don't want to try/

Lynxia Lost said...

K Star.

Actually, I need a name for an ultimate supervillain, male and totally deranged.

Stephanie Edgley said...

Nixion Strange said...

Tan something...

Lynxia Lost said...

Bye Dark.

What sound Val?

Nixion Strange said...

Bye Dark!

Nixion Strange said...

One word or two Lynxia?

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

It... it sounds like there's some sort of orbiting thing in here... Kind of like something spinning around so quickly it makes a weird sound... But nothing is spinning

Lynxia Lost said...

Two words Nix.

Odd Val, check your wardrobe.

Nixion Strange said...

Hmm...
Super Villan?

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

Now it sounds like someone is knocking on my bedroom wall from outside... *is starting to panic a little*

Luciana said...

Bye, whoever left!

Sorry. I'm distant.
I am preparing a presentation on SP for my English S&L - 20% of my GCSE. D:

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

The knocking just stopped...

Lynxia Lost said...

Yup, he is the one that has controlled the controller and has set everything up for his insane purposes. All he needs now is a name.

Luciana said...

Thanks, Lynx.

Lynxia Lost said...

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

WB Nix!

Star Inkbright said...

Hi Nix! I don't care if you were already here, I'm saying hi to you anyway!

Nixion Strange said...

No, I wasn't here

Luciana said...

Hey, Nix! :)

We were just talking about you.
All of you, actually.
Me and Hel, that is.
About how old everyone is. C:

Star Inkbright said...

- (squished marshmellow)
- (squished banana)

Nixion Strange said...

Oh, I dedicate to you people
For once today, I felt like I was back in the Blogland I like, the one who made me who I am. I missed it. But somehow, Sparky coming back made me realise that if I want it that way, I have to do it, not just dream of it. Now I've lost track of this conversation
Anywho, Blogland wouldn't be anything without you people

Luciana said...

AMAZING DEDICATIONS NIX! :D

Star Inkbright said...

I'm 13, but 14 in about two and a half months.

Lynxia Lost said...

That is an awesome ded...

Nixion Strange said...

I'm 15, but 15 in two and a half months

Star Inkbright said...

AGREED, L!

I anouced two days ago that blogland was offically Healed and back to normal. I wrote a whole speech about it.

Luciana said...

NIX IS OLDER THAN ME!
I'm 15, turning 16 in Novemberrrr. C:

Nixion Strange said...

If you're 16 in November, you're older. I'm ont 16 till March

Luciana said...

You said...Two and a half months....
Oh wait.
Never mind.
Different parts of the world. *headdesk*
I'm an idiot.

Star Inkbright said...

I said;

"I hearby declare that this date, 28th of June, shalt be know henceforth as Healing Day, as it is the day that the location Blogland is considored Fully Healed. Blogland took a great mental battering a few months ago. There were the terrible Cycles. One of which was the Anger Cycle, in which many Minions got angry at each other; moreober, Blogland was not so nice as before. Perheps the best known is the Depreession Cycle, in which many of the Minions felt overcome with sadness; this then in turn left the other Minions feeling low in spirits. Needless to say, Blogland was not so cheerful a place to be. Many of the Minions attempted to heal Blogland, but it was a fragile peace, one in which the slightest little thing could result in Minions yelling at each other to be happy. Eventually we got over it, but gone was the fighting, the messing around in the lake. Talking filled most of the Bloglandian's conversations. It was a very nice Blogland, but not QUITE how Blogland should be. However, I know think we are back to how we were before. Completely Healed. We are behaving as Bloglandiams should behave again. And so I name the day Healing Day, least we should all forget how dark Blogland once became and how joyous it was to have it back again."

Nixion Strange said...

It was a joke. I'm 15 now, but in two and a half months, I'll still be 15

Star Inkbright said...

He said he was 15 and that in two and a half months he would still be 15.

Star Inkbright said...

Snap!

Nixion Strange said...

That is so true Star

Nixion Strange said...

The healing day thing, btw

Luciana said...

Oh right.
Sorry.
I'm an idiot.
I just thought it was a typo.
Mainly because pretty much everyone I know typos constantly.
*facepalm*
I'm an idiot.

Star Inkbright said...

I'm one of the oldest in my school year:)

Nixion Strange said...

I'm one of the oldest as well

Lynxia Lost said...

Star, I had to post that on my blog.

Luciana said...

I'm the oldest in my form...And one of the older students in my year, but not one of the oldest.

Nixion Strange said...

*frowns*
What If? Kinda plummeted...

Nixion Strange said...

I think the anger cycle was after the depression cycle

Eve the ROCK said...

Back

Star Inkbright said...

I don't call people idiots irl, I call them squidies. As in, "You squidy!" My dad started it. He messes around with words like that. We often called Merlin Square now. Merlin > Square-lin > Square.

*frowns* Wait, I am spelling square right,aren't I?

Luciana said...

HEY, EVE.

Lynxia Lost said...

Hi Eve!

Nixion Strange said...

Hi Eve!
