Right, well, SOMEBODY at Harper Collins messed up, and I am NOT a happy writer. But, for those of you who may have heard, yes, it is true, you are getting a Tanith Low novella coming you way early in 2013 so, um...
SURPRISE!
Grrrrr.
And before you get carried away with what it might be about or who might be in it, the synopsis provided was an early one, before I'd actually started the damn thing. Biggest change? Ghastly ain't in it. Probably.
So what IS it about, you ask?
It's about God-Killer weapons. Four of them, scattered around the world. Four weapons that could hurt- even kill- Darquesse whenever she arrives. Tanith, being thoroughly devoted to dear Darquesse, does not want these weapons falling into enemy hands. So she recruits a gang of misfits and villains and off she goes to snatch them before the good guys come calling.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to stomp away and find someone to beat up...
EDIT
Also, to all my east coast Ameriminions, you better stay safe during this storm and all these power outages. That is an ORDER.

IF DEREK SAW ANY OF MY SHIPS I'D LAUGH SO MUCH.
mainly because me and Zaf were discussing it.
Sparx is to blame for Valith! She mentioned it to me when she read KotW. Then when I was re-reading MC I was like "Oh my Golden God, Valith could actually work..." Then laughed. And told everyone on Blogland at the time. xD
*laughs* That iron guy just went down my street.. y'know the one that yells "annnnnnny old ironnnnnn?"?

Also, Skulguette is a cool ship.

(TO BE CONTINUED - comment was too long).
I didn't either, actually. I know I said I might break down and cry, but that would be mentally, rather than physically...
Well. Now I've just started reading Artemis Fowl, I'll know that Holly dies :)
Ah, yes...sorry about that Luciana :/

Oh, wait. Bbs.
November 2, 2012 10:30 AM
*laughs* It's amusing, Ieni. ^^
...why is Star posting conversations from earlier?
She doesn't die. Well, she does. But she doesn't die permanantly.
Which makes it all the more odd that I was almost crying. :/
I was trying to explain to Ieni about my relationship with the Elves of Utter Doom. :)
Technically, she could die in the book I haven't read yet, but I wouldn't know; I haven't read it yet.
So, I haven't even met this Holly character in the book yet, but I know she dies and then comes back to life...wow...that's pretty epic...
I still don't get it. I think if I tried hard enough, I could, but I'm feeling pretty stupid right now...so pfft....
And later (last past comments, I promise):
Eve the ROCK said...
Oh god, Star, get away from the elves!!!!
...Wait. Those ARE the Elves of Utter Doom, right?
November 2, 2012 12:33 PM
Lola Shallow Heart said...
Hey!!!!
November 2, 2012 1:03 PM
Star Inkbright (Ink!) said...
Yes, they ARE the Elves if Utter Doom, Eve. :)
They've gone for a tea break right now though.
Me and my sister just had this long chat about Artemis Fowl in the car, coz I was saying about the awesome parts in AF5, then she joined in, and then we qere just quoting this and that from the whole series . . . 'TWAS AWESOME. :) I love being able to discuss books with her. :)
November 2, 2012 1:27 PM
Mmm...coffee!
It feels like a Saturday today...dunno why...
HOLLY'S THE SECOND MAIN CHARACTER. :)
In Artemis Fowl, death never guartantees the end of a character. Even if a character dies permanately, Eoin Colfer still manages to keep him involved in the series. I'm thinking of a certain dead character here . . .
I looooovvvvvvvveeeeeee coffee.
Artemis
Holly
Mulch
Opal Koboi
Butler
Foaly
Root
Juliet
Number One
I think that's all of the main characters in order of mainness. Although it's hard. Depends on the book, too.
Ah, that's great then. Ah...no more spoilers then :)
I'm going to make my mummy a birthday cake as a surprise for when she gets back with my sister now.
Byebye!
I tried not to spoiler too much. :/ It was hard once I'd done the accidental Holly Dies comment.
FOURS IENI!
Bbs.
Hello Derek! know you probably won't see this, but hey ho! I'm doing National Novel Writing Month at the moment - NaNoWriMo. NaNoWriMo is where you try to write a 50,000 word novel in November! I was wondering, do you have any tips on writing and inspiration? Thank you!!
Acquired the thing I bought five days ago.
Mission accomplished.
My cousin is currently on my bed shifting my cousin for the third time today...
Evening, Flame! :)
Hello, anyone that appeared! :3
Flame, Rim says hi.
If you're still here, that is.

Zafffffffffffffffffffff!
Heeeeey
Sorry my friends mum got pissed at him.
I had to like walk him to the shop.
That's ok, Flame.
How are you both?
Yeah. He's grounded though. And not allowed to come to my house anymore.
Omg. He was still on the boner on the way home xD
It was so funny.
Serves him right for fickin getting in my cousin like that xS
FLAAAAAAAAMMMMMEEEE! *pokes in the eye*
I should probably finish writing that blogpost I started to write earlier...
But I'm lacking inspiration. D:
Bah! Everyone's so distant!
I'm here.
YAY! FLAME'S HERE!
I'm here...
Kind of...
*pokes Ivy*
Can't you just say HELLO?
HELLO!
*pokes him and he falls off a cliff*
*falls off a cliff*
Wheeeee.
*watches him fall*
Come on, can't you have more enthusiasm when falling off a cliff?
WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.
Yay! Enthusiasm!
So how are you, Flame, other than falling off a cliff?
I'm annoyed ish.
But good at the same time.
BUT HOW ARE YOU?
I AM DANDY.
I need to write more of my epic story for Derek. In it, me and Derek just met Thrasher, who is QUEEN of the fish people.
Oh, and I need to write chapter three of the Ivy story...
I need to write chapter 2 of the Origin,
High five for needing to write more!
*attempts high five* *misses*
*laughs*
God this cliff is fairly high.
*is still falling*
No, the bottom is right th-
*watches Flame hit the bottom*
Yeah, right there.
Hey!!
Ow.
*rubs his back*
HI NJ!
Hey NJ!
How are you?
*hugs*
I'm good!
And How are the 2 of you??
I need to wriiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiite. But I am good.
(I also need to stop eating Halloween candy...)
I'm still annoyed-ish...
I need to revise :(
Drama Controlled Assessment on Monday week
Chem Module Tuesday week

French Speaking CA on the Friday.
That is going to be the Worst week ever OMG
Hey Luce
*hugs*
How're you??
Why are you annoyed Flame??
Hello...
I'm incredibly pissed off, tbh...
You?
I am good.
Why are you pissed off??
Several reasons...
One of them me?
And NJ my cousin full on shifted my cousin three times today.
*blah*
Oh right. :/
I'm more confused about it though... Tbh, I couldn't really care.
It's going to be awkard for a while.
Actually, Flame, I don't care. I really do not care.
I'm fed up of conflict.
I'm not annoyed with you because I don't care...
Lucianna, i just saw your email.
Sorry :/
Anyone Out there?
Right, I better get going my battery is about to run out and I can't find the charger :L
By all!!
*hugs*
Bye, NJ.

Hello, SPD. *laughs* I still want to call you Power Ranger. :P
How are you?
Thanks SPDirectioner. Do I have to call you that whole thing or do you have a nickname?
Call me SPD. Luka, I'm good, thanks. How are you?
Hey, how many people here are from America. Because I seriously know nobody (face to face) from America who reads SP
I'm p*ssed off about a few things, but I'm ok. :)
Glad you're good. ^.^
A lot of people here. I, for example, am from the USA.
I'm from America.

Mines either TFO or KoTW.
Yeah, I should've expected that. Me too. Which one have you read the most?
I have lots of favourites!
Have you read KOTW yet?
I've read the first one 18 times...
I definitely really like Death Bringer. Even though Tanith's not in it.
I LOVED KOTW!! It took FOREVER to arrive.
Gonna go asleep!
Night!:)
They're all my favourite. :3
And they all have really nice covers. :3
I read KOTW in one day... And then I spent ten minutes video taping me acting out the characters.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hc9pexOfGew
I've only read KOTW once so far, but I've read the others....a lot.
Night, Flame! *hugs*
Bye Flame! *waves frantically*
I wait a year for a book to come out, and then I read it in like two or three hours, and I feel dumb
Bye
I've inly read them all like once.
But a load of bits alot more times.
Bye!:)
Bye Magpie!
wait no I'm not going. I was saying goodbye to... uh, Flame?
Bye Flame!
Msd, I'm not supposed to be here...
So, wbd, too... :/
Has anyone here ever read Howl's Moving Castle? It's not SP, I'm just wondering.
I saw the movie...
I like the movie, it's not that much like the book though
As anyone read The Mortal Instruments? The first books is called City of Bones. Not as good as SP but still a really good series. My second favorite-after SP. The movie is coming out in August, 2013. My favorite character is Sebastian-Jonathon Christopher-and my friend calls me crazy.
Yeah, I've read those. I like the Clockwork ones better though.
Who is your favorite character in the Mortal Instruments. The third and last book of the Infernal Devices is coming out in March. God, I'm excited. Have you read all five of the MI?
Hello!
*is superfantasticallyexcitedlyhappy* I FINALLY got my parents to give me permission to collect! Yay! And I was listing the ones I need in the car today, and it was a really, really, really long list.
Ooh, a new person.
Can I call you Sevpie?
Kestrel LeStarre, master of torture and all manner of unpleasant deaths, at your service.
(I'm an Ameriminion. Florida, used to live in Maryland. Derek, we are multiplying!)
Woooooooo!
Kessie! Hi, how are you?
oh hi kestrel. Yeah sure you can call me Sevpie.
I haven't read Mortal Instruments for a while, but I like that sorcerer dude with the cat eyes
SPD, hello, I am AMAZING!
Sevpie, awesome. Call me Kessie. Or Kes. Or LeS, or Trellis(don't ask), or pretty much anything I can recognise as me. :)
Magnus! Then I like Simon, Alec, and Magnus!
I've only read the first two MI, I like Magnus Bane. He has Fletcher hair, and his name is Latin. :)
Ok. How long have you been reading SP. I've been reading since sixth grade, I'm in 8th now, but I just got on this blog thingy
Me? I think I was seven, on that fateful day in the bookstore...
I am in 7th grade now. Age 11.
I'm still newbieish. I think. hmm... I wonder, am I still a newbie? I'll ask someone...
Fletcher! I love Fletcher! My favorite character! I don't like Myra. Please Derek, get rid of Myra! I'm in seventh grade. I started reading SP in like fifth-sixth grade.
I like Myra...
And I prefer Tanith as a Remnant.
And I ship Ghanith, Chinduggery, Fletcherie, and now, Thrashgrace.
My favourite character is China, favourite villain is Springheeled Jack.
Favourite book is a tie between TFO and KotW.
CANDY UPDATE!!! I'm eating a package of Mike & Ike.
In sixth grade, there was this fifth grade guy who was obsessed with me and I told him I had a boyfriend named Fletcher. It was hilarious.
*steals Mike & Ike's*
Val! Hi!
Are you SERIOUS?
My favorite scene ever was probably when Fletcher and Valkyrie broke up, because someone finally sticks it to a main character. I like Val, but not so much lately. She's all "OMG, (that dude she's flirting with) DO YOU WANT TO DATE ME?"
and he's all "No, please get off the train"
What do you call those things that doctors wear when they perform surgery?
Thrashgrace? Ha! And with what happened in KotW! Hahahha. I'm all for Fletcherie and Ghanith. But I would want Thrashabelle!
You really told him that?
Cool
Yes, I am serious... It was so funny. He was in my sister's class, so everytime he said something creepy she would bring up Fletcher.
Does anyone else like Scapegrace/Clarabelle?
Sevpie, you mean Hansard? I tend to like everything about the books that everyone else hates. Like Remnith.
Gasp! Magpie!
I like Ghastly/Tanith, but Ghanith sounds lie somebody talking through their nose
Sevpie, Finbelle/Clarabar is better...
But the only one I seriously support(and will defend to the death) is Chinduggery.
wbd
I like Remnith.
On Halloween, someone asked what my name was and I said Stephanie Von Hotstuff.
YES I LOVE CHINDUGGERY AND I WAITED ALL YEAR FOR CHINA AND SKULDUGGERY TO TALK IT OUT...and it was in another dimension. not normal China.
wait, Clarabelle and Finbar? Really? .....have they even met?
The nurse, being as oblivious as she was, didn’t notice. “This is your bed. You can lie here for a few minutes, I’ll get the Doctor.”
Kestrel sighed, recognising the universal sign for, “The Doctor will be with you in a few hours. Probably.”
She stood there for a moment, feeling foolish, and then sat down on the edge of the bed. She had just settled in for a long wait, when a man in a white lab coat and a surgical mask came through the rows of beds toward her. She stood up carefully, still cradling her arm, and regarded him with open hostility. “And who might you be?”
“I’m the Doctor. So it would behoove you to be polite to me.”
Kestrel sneered. She actually sneered. “Behoove? Who talks like that.”
“I do, and as I said, it would behoove you to be polite. Otherwise, I might just walk away, and leave you with that broken arm of yours.”
did you write that?
Sevpie, probably not, and Finbar is married, but still...
Yes, I wrote that. I have a VERY long story in the making.
I like Finbar and his pet rock. When I first read it I started laughing and it was some sort of cackle, and my brother looked at me like I'm insane. which I probably am, but still.
It's good. For free-writing once I wrote a Nye story, and it was soo bad. I kept writing 'he' and having to change it to 'it'
Mine's for NanOWriMo, not fanfic. Oh god, the pet rock...
The only Finbar moments that were better than that was the "Did I hit you with a cushion?"
and "She's mad at me. She says I hav eno sympathy, I say she looks like a tufty bowling ball. Why don't you come in, have a look, and decide who's right?"
I despise my sister right now. She helped me put my poster up and she said it was straight. Ha. It is closer to being sideways. Grr. And now she blabbing and hatred is flowin through me.
Older sister or younger?
I loved Solomon, I wish he showed up more
What kind of poster, SPD?
I agree. Sevpie, do you know about the deds?
Deds?
We start NaNoWriMo on Monday.
Have any of you guys realized that Magic Tree House is a complete rip off of Doctor Who? Just without the doctor. I mean there is a treehouse. I bet that TARDIS is painted on the side of it.
What is this ded thing you speak of?
Star Wars, except, it says Paw Wars and has squirells fighting with lightsabres on it.
Make a dedication. Look on the last page-the first couple of comments. First person on each page writes one except for the very first page.
If you get the first comment on a page, you dedicate, or ded. It can be to anything you want. And if you don't want to, you can give ded rights to someone else, but there are some people(like Nix!) who WON'T ded unless they get first.
I dedicate this page to the nice people on here who will talk to me about SP, and actually understand what I mean by Finbar's pet rock. Also, I dedicate it to my brother and my friend and my mom for trying the SP books
Your mum tried them? Lucky. I only have one person in irl who I can talk to about them, and I think I get on her nerves. brb
well she started today, my friend too
The 1st SP book belonged to my brother before I stole it from his shelf
My mum read the first one, but she thought it was too scary and refused to read PWF.
Yeah, my bro started too young and was scared of the vampires. He's gotten up to about halfway though PWF
my dad's saying he read some of the first one so i'll just put that here
To piss me off, my mother pronounces Skulduggery, Skull-dig-errr-ee.
No, Skull-dij-er-ee
Really? but.. it's an actual word. It's in the dictionary and everything.
Really? but.. it's an actual word. It's in the dictionary and everything.
why is my comment there twice?
Oh, and my dad is reading it now.
Dad: Stephanie's cool.
Me: I'm Stephanie.
Dad: ...I knew it.
*silence*
Dad: But I really hate Fergus and Beryl.
Me: Wait till you meet their kids. They suck too. Well, until the sixth one. But their still annoying.
Dad: That sucks.
*silence*
Dad: I'm gonna go read now.
That's how Tuesday morning went for me.
Who's your favorite person for Valkrie to be with? Caelan, Fletcher, Vex, Hansard, or that dude from Mortal Coil (owen i think)
*they're
my fav is independent woman. WHO NEEDS MEN?
Um... I'm not really a fan of any relationships, but I liked Fletcher best.
My friend follows me around everyday pretending to be Caelan.
Me! I need Derek!
Caelan is disturbing
Oh! Look at this!
http://bringingskulduggerytothemasses.blogspot.com/2012/10/skulduggerys-deathdaydereks-birthday.html
Last year, Derek posted one of the pictures on his Blog, and even though he didn't this year, it was still awesome.
I'm back!
My dads a professor of Ebglish literature, and he won't read them for something that makes no sense. His reasoning is "They're probably not actually very good. If you still love them this much in twenty years, tell me then."
Me:*facepalm*
So I'm going to start buying them as gifts.
those are awesome pics. I wish i knew enough people IRL who like SP to do that.
Seriously, in 20 years, make sure to tell him you still like them
Sevpie, Caelan is, indeed, disturbing.
Val, Sean is pronounced Shawn, not Seen.
I made my brother read the first one... And one of my little sisters (she was dressed as Tanith) read the entire series.
Dr. Who is intense
Sevpie, oh, I will. Do you collect?
Tomorrow, I am going to buy so many... I finally got permission to buy multiple copies! Amazon, FTW!
*frowns* But I've met people named Sean.
Why would it be Shawn?
Collect? Like, the books?
