Right then, I have here the details of the Ireland/UK tour. My publishers do like to keep me busy, the little scamps, but this tour isn't quite so arduous as they've been in the past- probably because they know I'll have just come back from the ANZ tour, and will be feeling pretty sorry for myself...

Hi guys. Here for a bit.
Oh my gosh, earlier this morning I got three really good ideas for writing, but one I might not be able to do, cause I was going to write my own entry for Nix's Copetition. Even though I'm not in it. Anyway, the second one is about my Lavender Hope's Past story. I might actually know where I'm goin with that now. And the last is a story I made up a while ago, but jus thought about it more today.
Thing is, I'm not sure if I have time to write all that I want to...
Hi Lavereno!
Hi! Oh and...
http://lavenderhopestoryblog.blogspot.kr/2012/07/dragon-wings-chapter-4-part-1.html?m=0
More of Dragon Wings! :D
:( this sucks. People are hardly ever on Aussie time. It's only late at night where all the actual conversation starts.
Or maybe I'm just gloomy coz my dad turned the Internet off. :P
Cool, Ill go read it!
I know, right? Everything happens when we're sleeping. :P
Great, thanks! :D
Commented! I'm really glad you added a chapter like that into your story xD
Im usually alive. The Aussie's have a awkward timezone...:/
Darn, gotta go.
Thanks for the comment Eve! You'll find out more about them soon. ;) Might be able to come on later. Bye!!!
Bye Lav
How come no one said goodbye to me? 5 minutes before I left, everyone said bye to Dark, but when I go, just silence
Bye and hi, Nix. Bye and hi.
Hi Nix!!!
*tackles*
Hey Zaf!
*looks very serious*
You have not given me your entry for the Comp
Hi Lav!
Geez, nix, didn't know you were so sensitive about these things. :P
Me?! Sensitive?! HOW COUL YOU SAY THAT?!
AGH! I forgot the D.
NOOOOOOO
Silence will fall when the question is asked.
Going again
Bye!
Back, sorry, I was lunching
She was standing on a cliff. The sea was crashing violently beneath her. Kerilyn guessed she should have heard it above all else, but she was too fixated on the powerful energy emanating from the massive moon in the dark night sky ahead. It was a sphere of mesmerising white light and beauty, so captivating and magnetic that Kerilyn almost felt herself being pulled towards it.
"It's pretty, isn't it?" she said. She was speaking to no one in particular, as she was alone, but was in no way surprised when a voice answered her.
"It is."
Those two words, the most simple reply that could possibly be uttered, it would mean nothing but the distant notion that one is being agreed with, to anyone who wasn't Kerilyn. But when Kerilyn heard that voice, that voice that was a rare and lovely gift, she was overwhelmed with adoration and love. He was an unreadable mind, too unique to see through, but that didn't change anything. Kerilyn wouldn't settle for any life other than one with him. Now HE was the magnet. Now she was being pulled toward HIM. Her heart was almost his, she was a second away from giving it to him.
But then his fingers grew claws, and he tore her heart from her body.
That's probably all I'm going to get from that. My brain has something against finishing things....
...Hello?
Hello Sparrrrrrrrrrrky
My going didn't last long
Hello Nixion.
Hello Sparky
Hi Richard!
Hello everyone.
Hi Valerie!
Hello Val.
I'm not Valerie! HOW DARE YOU! *tackles Eve*
*gets tackled* I've been calling you Valerie since forever! It goes like this:
"Hi, I'm Valkyreno."
"Valereno?"
"No, Valkyreno. With a K."
"Actually, I'll just call you Valereno. You won't notice the difference."
MWAHAHAHA!
*eats vaccum cleaner*
Whatever, Eve.
I once tricked someone I was named Valkyrie. Well, lots of times. There's more than a hundred people who think my name is ACTUALLY Valkyrie...
Hi! Back again. Distant though.
Hi Lav!
Hi Lav!
Hi Nix! Hi Val, Sparky, Eve, and anyone else who's here now!
Oh, and to Eve and Miss(even though she's not here at the mo), it's not a full chapter. It was only the first part. I'm going to try to start the second part today.
Why only Eve and Miss? Why not me?
Cause they made me think they thought it was a full chapter by their comments.
'I'm really glad you added a chapter like that into your story' and 'Can't wait for the next chapter'
Although, now I think about it, that's what a lot of people say...
*face palms*
Okay, you can just ignore that then. Never mind...
hi!
Hi Miss.
Hi Miss!
HI Everyone
Hi NIx!
Hi Selena.
lalala the witch is dead
Hi Selena!
hi Lav, how are you?
hi Lav, how are you?
Hi Miss Cain, how are you?
I'm doing okay. Thanks for asking. :)
Must go
Bye!
hmm this is suspicious.
The elves that are normally
in the wardrobe are in the kitchen, eating the cat food.Hmmmm.
im good Selena
Bye Nix!
kewl
bye Nix!
theres a wardrobe in the kitchen??
Bye Nix!
i dedicate this page to animals
they give us company and love. When everything seems down, they lift us up with happiness
and when they leave, may we meet again in the after-life
*sniffs and raises glass*
Here here.
Nice ded, Miss. :')
Oh my gosh, perfect timing with the song I'm listening to. Wind beneath my wings. That's such a nice but sad song. Especially if you know the movie it was from.
My hand is so very sore, because I just had to grate a whole lot of cheese
thanks Lav
Oh, everyone just said such lovely things and I said something so, meh!.
I will make up for it by saying, I have a cat, and she is so very nice and so are my three chickens
i have a dog
hes so cute!
You're welcome, Miss. :)
That must hurt, Sel.
I HAD three cats... We had to give them away... It feels worse than if they died... They could have, and I wouldn't even know... But I hope they're happy wherever they are.
i gotta go now
bye!
Bye Miss.
Hey, um could you guys please look at this? You don't have to, but it would be cool if you did:
http://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=5481141140333078196#editor/target=post;postID=8986855352669593425
You don't have to go on the boredom one, just the story ones.
It's not letting me, Sel. Sorry. :s
I think Val, Eve and Sparky disappeared...
No, I'm just silently stalking you. *has been watching everything from the ceiling*
Bye Miss!
Table ninjas, unite! I say that because my little sis and my little brother just started to fight on the table and then I said you guys are table ninjas, and then i said get of the table because i had to set it and then I had to turn into a table ninja and then, oh it doesn't matter
Nope, I'm here.
Eating Val's cookies.
*bites cookie*
These are good.
*looks up*
Whoa. Okay. Hi.
its okay lav, oh no, Val is on the ceiling again. Oh, maybe you can't because its not a link, just the address
Sorry, I was suddenly in a library. I'm back though
Hi Sparky
Okay. Hi to you too, Sparky.
That sounds like fun. Table Ninjas. :P
Okay, so Eve's here too now. Wb. :)
Yeah, I am green dagger, Ella,(my seven year old sis) is red hand and Archie (my 3 year old bro) is blue eye.
Hi! Eve
Ha, cool names. :)

I don't understand this msn thing....
Thanx
Dinner, homemade pizza. Yum?
MSN's like another IM thing. It also has things like news and stuff. I had it, but don't use it anymore.
leaving now
Ooh! That sound delish, Sel! Lucky! :O
Bye Sel!
Okay, well, I know what msn is, but I don't know what IM is
*has been baking cookies for Sparky*
*is about to hand them to her, but eats all of them instead*
*frowns at Val*
We had an agreement.
IM- instant message. Like chat.
I make le yummy drink!
I my bro eats his din dins, then I make him a yummy drink bye!
Cool, Sel!
Bye Sel!
I am the green dagger and i am holding a toy gun that shoots dart things, versing my sis and bro in an epic fight byeee
Sorry, I keep saying bye and then coming back, but this is final, I will see you guys tomorrow! :):):):)
What agreement? *ties socks into Sparky's hair and makes sure they can't come out*
*shocks Val, hard*
I get cookies, you don't get electrocuted.
Remember?
Bye again, Sel!
I gotta go too now. Bye guys!
Oh. Right. *barfs out the cookies on Sparky's shirt and runs*
*simmers*
Bye.
*laughs*
I'm going to bed now, byyyyyyyyyyeee!
Hello?
Hi Zathract...
Hi Sparky.
How are you?
Rafgh
Fine. Not really, but I'll stick with it.
Hi Nix.
It's too early here lads, I need to go back to bed lol
Hi Em!
Hi Em.
Yo Mel.
Nix.
Lol I love that, everyone else says hi but Sparky is just too cool for words so I get a manly Yo!
(well that's how it sounded in my head lol)
Heya everyone!!
Don't panic, I'm still alive
Hi!
... Have I done something to get on people's bad side? Because no one seems very happy with me
What gave you that impression? *is throwing darts at Nix's picture and has already drawn a moustache*
I don't know Eve. Just a hunch
Well, I'm not unhappy with you or anything, if I'm part of the problem
How's the competition going, by the way?
So far, only ten people are in it
Hi Eve.
I'm not unhappy with you Nix. I'm just in a bad mood.
Ah. And who's that? Who won?
Ah would you stop Nix.
Your grand :)
Yep. In a bad mood with me
At the moment, anyone who gave me there entry is in...
*frowns*
What...?
Oh. NOW I see the problem.
You know, I can rant all day about how much difference an exclamation point can make, but I'll only be a few seconds. Exclamation. Points signify that you are happy to see someone. You don't have to be ESPECIALLY overjoyed, but I believe everyone deserves an exclamation point. All Nix got was "Hi Nix." and "Nix." If he had gotten "Hi Nix!" and "Nix!" we wouldn't have this problem. Now look what you've done. You've given your friend enough information to believe that no one is happy to see him.
*exclamation points
I haven't used an exclamation mark since I've been here...
I gave an exclamation point in my greeting to everyone so it wasn't me
*ducks behind brackets*
So that excuses you somehow?
Open your dictionaries and page "POLITE", people.
*turn to page
*gives Emerald a smiley face*
Does it matter?
No one ISN'T happy to see Nix, so there shouldn't be a problem.
I will also accept "Hi Nix :)" or "Hi Nix :D" or "Hi Nix xD" or "Hi Nix :P"
Ah it's the thought that counts sometimes Mist, it can make the difference to anyone's day :)
But how will Nix know that if all he gets are gloomy "Hi Nix."s?
WE LOVE YOU NIX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
One word describes Nix and that one word is: LEGEND :D
Emerald, you are now the Model Bloglandian. Not the magazine model, the other one :P
What does that make me Eve?
msd
That makes you the Example. I'm using your name for all examples now xD
So, Em is the model, and I'm the Example? Does anything I do count for... anything?
But for the competition, didn't you say one person would win?
Yes, I haven't got that bit yet
Fine, Nix. You're our Handy Helper. *gives Nix a laminated piece of paper for a badge*
:)
Okay then
That makes me sound like a builder who isn't good at his job, so his co-workers give him a name to help him feel better, while they're laughing at him behind his back
*is laughing irl*
*stops*
*serious face*
No one's laughing at you, Nix.
Hi guys! Will be on computer soon. See ya then!
I must leave again
Be back later
Bye!
Back and on a computer!
Bye Nix!
Bye Nix!
Hi Lav!
See how incredibly pleasant that sounded? Rather than
Hi Lav.
Because
Hi Lav! = Lav's here, cool!
And
Hi Lav. = So Lav's here.
*giggles*
You're using me as an example as well, Eve?
RAGH
Yes I am, Lavereno!
Hi Nix! You know, just because I like Twilight, doesn't mean I'm not allowed to laugh at this
http://neuffj.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/funny-facebook-fails-harry-potter-is-just-a-twilight-ripoff.jpg
XD
Hi Nix!
Check your email or the Competition blog! I said something on there!
I remove the comment notification on all my blogs
HP was before Twilight, and Sirius is not a werewolf
Oh. Okay. Then look at the latest post on the Competition blog...
Please?
commented Lav, read dit
*just now looks at Eve's link*
Haha! The best answer was "Are you an idiot?" Exactly what I was thinking! XD
Another funny one went something like
"Okay, so I live in America, and I really want to read the Harry Potter books, but I think the author lives in Emgland, so that would mean she speaks English. But I speak American. Help????"
Yay! Thank you! :D
Gtg. Bbs. Maybe...
Bye Lav!
This is a kids show...

EVE
*pushes in lake*
Yeah, but did you see the description? The source the person got it from made her curse, but in the show she said 'bossy mean of a girl'
Agh! *swallows a fish*
What?!
Nix, be prepared to get an email soon. Though I didn't send it yet.
Back now. Hello. :)
Oh, and remember when I made a comment about how Happy Feet shouldn't be G-rated? It was on the news. Someone must have read my mind
Hi Lav!
Hi!
Sent it now, Nix.
