Okay then, here comes the places I'll be visiting in the Ireland/UK part of the tour. As mentioned previously, these will be weekend affairs- from Fridays to Sundays (mostly)- and they'll mainly consist of public signings.
30 Aug - 3 Sept:
Dublin
Bray
Drogheda
Cork
7 Sept - 9 Sept:
London
Bournemouth
Southampton
13 Sept - 15 Sept
London
Birmingham
Liverpool
And I'll also be appearing at the Bangor Literature Festival, the Mountains to the Sea festival in Dublin, and the Cheltenham festival.
The fact that I can't visit EVERYWHERE is always a shame, but we do try and spread the love as much as possible. This time around, my publishers took into account that I'd be in Australia/NZ for the previous two weeks, so I reckon they took pity on me. Maybe it was all the manly crying I did. We'll never know...
Eagle-eyed Irish readers may also have noticed that I shall be appearing on the "Celebrity Mastermind" quiz show, starting on TV3 this Sunday. I'm not sure what episode I'm on (I think it airs on July 1st but I'm not sure). For those who don't know, Mastermind is a show where you are asked questions about a chosen topic, and then you're asked general knowledge questions. I'm not going to say ANYTHING about what happened (we recorded it a few weeks ago) so you'll just have to watch to see how well I did. Or not, as the case may be. Ahem.
Let's see, anything else...
The Forums are back up, thanks to a load of readers who chipped in and paid the website domain fee. You Minions are amazing, you really are. Anyone who hasn't visited really should, if only to raise an eyebrow or two at the topics being discussed...! skulduggeryforums.co.uk.
Oh, and sometime soon (don't know exactly when) we'll be releasing Chapter One of Kingdom of the Wicked for you to read over at skulduggerypleasant.com, a chapter entitled "The Butterfly and the Wolf"...

i think this was his last message
I've got to go to bed now. To many g's, t's and o's...
Anywho, Derek, please read and answer
Bye!
QUESTIONS FOR DEREK:
1. Do you ship any pairings in SP? If so, which one(s)?
2. Will you please say hello to Nix and Mist? Because they're amazing and lovely. AND LYNXIA.
3. Who is your favourite character in SP? Because I just think it'd be interesting...
4. What is your taken name?
5. If you could use magic, what discipline would you follow?
6. Which of the books did you enjoy writing the most?
7. WHICH IS YOUR FAVOURITE SERIES OF DEXTER?!?!?! *loves Dexter, but it always comes second to SP*.
8. Speaking of Dexter, have you read the books? If you haven't, you should. They're good, not Landy-Level of good, though. They're still good.
9. WILL YOU CONSIDER GETTING TWITTER?!?!?!?
#GetLordLandyOnTwitter
*only asked nine questions and is wondering if Derek will see them and understand why nine*.
*almost forgot to post these...*
Found his last comments!
*reads them eagerly*
and i was thinking about a totally different message that has nothing to do with Nix's disappearence
YAY all blacks won!
yep
that was his last comment before disappearing
Bye Miss!
I can't watch videos now. I said that already.
Miss isnt leaving
im not going!!!
that was Nix's last message
Yeah, Cain, that was his last message. *just searched through all comments*.
like I said before, Derek's next book must have a glowing sword, a ghoul, lots of snakes and what was it umm oh it must have LOTS OF EPIC FIGHTING SCENES and some swimming, there is never any swimming
Oh...
So... he didn't say anything about disappearing...
*still searching comments, slowly*
...
I checked through all his comments on the last post. There's nothing to suggest he was going to leave..
*starts humming along to Nyan Cat*.
Oh my god...
so, i am not going was his last comment. If only we had Sherlock Holmes or Docter Who
I am confused??!!!!??/??!!!?????>.
there is swimming!!
1st book: when the man gets taken apart with water
2nd book: the pack of Infected jump in the water after Valkyrie
3rd book: the Sea Hag
4th book: none
5th book: none
6th book: the fight with Caelen
what eve?
i think thoses are all.....
What is it, Eve?
Eve, remember when Nix didnt dedicate the page cuz he said he was slowly disappearing or something like that
Well, thats not real swimming apart from int the first one. And the second one Its needs some hockey! that's what it needs
Derek came on, and Nix was waiting to see if he'd stay... That's where I'm at.
gt c you guys tomorrow i hope nix is back soon
Bye, Vena!
*is still laughing*.
ok Vena....
hes EXACTLY what he said about disappearing...
Sorry, apparently I'm not here
a clue??
bye Vena!
top of the 6th page i think
or the 5th
Bye Vena. Me too.
On page 7, I think.
Yeah, it's 7.
Guys, you're looking for things that aren't there.
I'd have said the same thing.
There's nothing we can do about it, apart from keep an eye out.
If we hear from him we'll be sure to tell one another.
If we don't, well, we don't.
If it gets to more than a week and no-one hears anything THAT'S when we start worrying, properly.
He might just be a tad busy with school work, or he's been banned or something. I am sure he'll be fine. It's Nix, after all. *smiles*.
i cant remember but its after page 4
true L
very true...
Heloo peoples :)
I thought of that, but he'd still try to come, wouldn't he? Even if he was banned or the internet went out, he'd still find a way. Like a library or a school computer. Wouldn't he?
Hi Jessica.
a good explanation Lav
hi Jessica!
Lav, chill. Just breathe. It's Nix, he wouldn't let anything happen. He'll be fine! He's strong and we all know that. Don't fret! *hugs*. Everything will be okay. *smiles weakly*.
Hello, Jessica.
*hugs L back*
*smiles weakly back*
Hey!!! Name is supposed to be Rose Sharp but it didnt work on my computer "glares at account" What are you guys up to, now my anoying sister has left?
WE ALL NEED TO CHEEEEEER UPPPPPPPPPp.
*is now hyper*
*blames Mist and Nyan Cat*.
Hmmmmmm.......
WE SHOULD DISCUSS FUZZLEBUGS. Because, uh, they're fuzzy?
*returns the weak smile and sighs*
It's late. I need to sleep.
Night guys.
Has Nix disapeared?
G'night, Lav! :)
Eve poofed...
Apperntly so... are you guys exited about Derek touring? (stupid question but still...)
I can't go.
*shrugs*.
More SP books, instead. *grins and points at list*.
No Jess, he's not coming to Canberra! Maybe Nix is busy. Ever thought of that guys?
I'm here
Yes I had, Helena! I said that myself. *is proud*.
*is now worried that Eve may be pissed off with us...*
Yes, Helena, but people are freaking out for some reason
he might be Hel
but he always has time for Blogland
bye Lav!
Oh, thank god.
I was slightly scared you disappeared too, Eve. :)
Night Lav!
He started getting heaps of homework. He's probably busy.
That's not it
like i said before
he always finds time to come on Blogland
By talking about it more you're just going to become more worried.
Let's just wait a couple of days before jumping to any conclusions, yeah?
ok L
When's Sparky back? Sorry guys got to go. Answer my question though!
bye Hel!
i think in less then a week
Bye, Helena.
Some time soon, is all I know..
*smiles*.
Gotta stay positive! XD
That's exactly the opposite of what you were just doing
I know.
But my mood changes fast.
When my mood changes, my perspective of things change, too.
we going to stress out if Nix isnt on within a week
I'm going to try to stay calm for as long as possible. I'll still worry, just not as openly..
OH GOD, NYAN CAT GOES OF 5EVR.
Bye Helena! Vena says bye to.
