And The Award Goes To...

The Irish Book Awards were held last night in Dublin and the last Artemis Fowl book beat out KOTW to emerge triumphant, giving Eoin Colfer a much deserved win. He went on the make the funniest speech of the evening while wearing the most dashing cravat I've ever seen on a real life person. Big congratulations to Eoin.

A few other people also won for, like, other categories- including Katie Taylor in the Best Sports Book. I really really really wanted to meet her and she was RIGHT THERE in front of me but then I was called away for a photo, and then there were a few people who wanted napkins signed, and when I looked around again she was gone. Dammit. I always thought she looked so petite on screen, but in person she is physically IMPRESSIVE. Here she is with Cecelia Ahern- one of my top two favourite writer-type-people that I know.


It was a fun night- it always is- but very well behaved and restrained when compared to last year. Ah, last year... what fond, fond memories I have...

My editor Nick came over for it, so we were chatting about the Tanith novella and he reckons it needs only the barest of edits. What does that mean for you guys? It basically means it'll stay at around the 54,000 word mark and I won't have to cut anything out. Apart from, apparently, all those mentions of Tanith in a bikini. I sincerely don't see the problem. It's not like I have her running around nekkid or anything.

Ooh, maybe I should...

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

Night Mara!

Its been one of my dreams to go see a play on Broadway and we were at Chili's and Mom told Dad they should get me something nice for my Sweet 16 and Dad was messing and then says oh alright tell her. Then Mom said they'd like to go to see any play I want on Broadway and I said Les Miserables which comes out in March. So they said we can and have dinner at Jekyll and Hyde and go to Toys R Us and I can go back to Times Square and Rockerfeller Center and see where the Today Show is filmed

Fabi S. - Fashion-Conscious Fire Wraith said...

I, um, think I'm going to go.

For a lot of reasons. None of them are you.

I'll be back eventually (duh), but it's probably better if it isn't soon. Maybe next time Derek posts.

[hugs all]

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

This is awkwardly silent

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

Ugh I give up this is just annoying! Why is it so silent and then people going poof?!

Snow said...

Idk. I'm here but so distant it's not funny.

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

I'm here too and its so silent

Ms. Kerias, people simply are not on. There are always high and low points.

Snow said...

I cannot believe no one has commented on my name... *shrugs* ember probably will.

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

Mara, I'm not stupid I read and did I mention you or Fabi? No. I did not mention you two and this did not even apply to you, it would apply to those who did not state they were leaving, again as you clearly didn't read what I said.

Sir- yah I figured its odd usually people are on. Eh I may go do something else

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

Snow- hmm? Wait....OH the Thor part? I never saw Thor so I apologize if I'm missing something

Snow said...

XD "Thor, Prince of Thunder". That part.

Zaf, google image search your blogger name. Just... do it

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

I find it hard to read when the leaders in the warriors books are given 9 lives, its hard to see cats who they know who are dead and like when Tallstar sees Finchkit...

I love how the names mean a lot, its so cool I do find it neat. How much loyalty is worth its in their code. Loyal to your Clan.

My friend texted me twice and is trying to phone me BUT WHEN SHE DOES I CAN'T HEAR ANYTHING (stupid phones) and I have no credit AND IT'S HALF EIGHT ON A SUNDAY DAMMIT.

She's asking me to ring her on the home phone.

(I repeat - HALF EIGHT ON A SUNDAY)

Snow said...

One day I decided to build a fridge. It was going pretty well until I realized I didn't have any apples or beds! I quickly ran to the supermarket, but all they had were romantic packets of petite tigers. I grabbed a few versed sofas and negotiated home, just in time to see my invitation disappear! It had run away to enter the miss universe competition!

Star Inkbright said...

@Snow: That's a beautifully random thing to say. :)

Jophiel said...

Just after sunset tonight, the sky lit up like Rhy's old background.

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

ROSE!!!!! *tacklehugs* MISSED YOU!!!! How are you?

Brb. Lunch

Jophiel said...

Blogland has changed. It's no longer the tight-knit family we were this time last year. It's a place if role play now. And that ain't me. I'm not one for role play. I want the family side of Blogland back but I know it won't change for one person, it's a group thing, anyway. I just want my old family back, have a good laugh and something that doesn't matter, have all this weight taken off me.

But you guys are happier like this. I love you all too much to ask you to change, and anyway, I know that if I did ask, you wouldn't listen. You're used to this running of things and I'm still moping around because I can't accept change.

Like, even if you could make another blog for role playing and leave these comments for us to talk, like we used to, wouldn't that be better? Less comments would be used and those like me (which probably are none) can enjoy talking like we used to.

I just miss who I was before this shit.

Jophiel said...

Hey Rhy, I missed you too. I'm fine. That's a lie but it's better than the truth. The truth is fucked up. Don't think about it.

Do you know who Aaron Petty is?

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

Tell me the truth. Please I want to help.

And I haven't heard of a Aaron Petty. Why? Who is he?

Jophiel said...

Truth sucks. I ain't saying nothing.

Aaron Petty is an Aussie wake boarder who I spent Monday until Thursday with as a student. He taught me a few tricks on the wakeboard. Look up 'Aaron Petty wakeboarder' and was the video on Vimeo.

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

Well I want to know. Please?

Okie dokie!

Jophiel said...

Ugh, the only real reason I came on here was to let people know about my opinion on the RPs. So in leaving now. Bye.

Maralie Lily Charm said...

The one picture I could have looked at least a small bit nice in, and I ruined it by looking fat and extremely ugly. Well done Mara. -_-

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

Bye Rose! *hugs*

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

Gtg now. BYE!

Alastair Cruciatus said...

Prayer is the bell jar
Over this goodbye
I'd rather leave this embrace between you and I
Let's lock out the bearded old man in the nightgown
He can tap against the glass, but I'm not coming out
I built bridges with these arms
I will not build a fortress
In the circle 'round the kitchen table I say my amen because I feel blessed
Secretly hoping as we join hands that you can't feel my trembling fingertips

If I sign this piece of paper,
Do I sell my soul along with my duties?
We won't put our money where your Catholic mouth is
Even though the teeth are long gone
They're still gone beneath the gums
And there's a lot of potential in a mighty mighty organ

They told us not to clap and we clapped as loud as we can
Because the reverb in those holy halls is like a long lost friend
Goes in the walls and comes back again back and back again back and back again back and back again

I want trees instead of graveyards
And nothing to confess
I've got a soft spot for your ancient books of horror stories
I've got a music in my ear from long long long ago and far away
And I'll still come and see you
Believe every word he says to me

We follow our own steps, while the shadows keep watching us
Our own steps, while our shadows keep watching us
Our own steps, while our shadows keep watching us
A wrong step could be enough to start this exodus

A wrong step could be enough to start this exodus

Hai everyone who may may not be here

Noelle said...

I just wanted to say that, recently, we've been talking more than actively role-playing.

We have thought about having a blog for just that, but it wouldn't be blogland, would it? It wouldn't be the same.

I actually recall that, when I first came here, there was a lot of blogfighting going on. Blogland hasn't really changed from that. It's always been a part of it, because people have a chance to write, show their writing, admire that of others, and some have it as a chance to be someone that they can't.

So yeah, RPing is a thing, but so is talking, and sometimes there's more talking than the other, and sometimes there's more rping than the other. That's how the tides of the world work.

Meh.

I probably shouldn't post this, because, quite frankly, this conversation has been had too many times...

Noelle said...

But yeah, a lot of people aren't even on because of school and being tired from it, and other things.

*Shrug* We generally start something up if it's going pretty slow for a day, and if there's a few people on doing nothing, it's usually to just read something and do your best to entertain them.

It certainly isn't what it was this summer...

Noelle said...

Actually, I had a dream last night that I was on the blog, but, since it was a dream, I lacked control of EVERYTHING.
So
I was on, on my phone, and everyone was on, including my old friends who have since moved on with their lives, and it was about 200 comments a minute because everyone was so excited to see each other, and I couldn't comment because it wouldn't let me.

It was
AWFUL.

Goodness. :P

And that concluded my nightmare.

Star Inkbright said...

HEY PEOPLE! :)

@Adra: That sounds more interesting than my dream about this dad stealing everything from us on holiday and he had this kid and I was just kind of disapproving of the attitude he was setting, and he just kept picking things up and walking off with them and like what could we do?
(When I woke up, I realised he should have reported him, but did we have any proof that the food was ours?)

#ChaseFOrBookNine

Noelle said...

Hi Star! *hugs*

You ought to have stolen the things back from him. Like re-gifting a present, but it's your own possession.

Star Inkbright said...

@Adra: We'd just look around and he was walking off with it, and then his kid would be nicking stuff (food, like) and at the time I was just kind of trying to hide it. :P
We probably ought to have done, but you know . . . it was a dream. :P

I woke up at like four or five in the morning though. -_- And couldn't get back to sleep properly.

#ChaseForbookNine

Star Inkbright said...

*'done' being 'stolen stuff back from him'

#ChaseFOrBookNine

Star Inkbright said...

You know, when the wifi was off for a few days because the shelves nearby it were being painted . . .

I dreamt that the wifi came back on and I could go on the blog again and I was so happy BUT THEN I WOKE UP AND IT WAS OFF and fell asleep again and dreamed it was online BUT THEN IT WASN'T and like NOOOOOOOOOOOO.

#ChaseForBookNine

Noelle said...

:/ I'm sorry you woke up so early...

I hate it in dreams when you feel like you can't move. I think it's because it's that state of sleeping when the mind paralyzes the body, and makes it still so it can get into REM sleep.

And- No wifi dreams. Horrible, aren't they?

Star Inkbright said...

Sorry, had to go clean out my rabbit . . . D:

Yes, horrible. :)

And - I've never had one of those dreams where you can't move . . . :/

And - that is fine, Adra. :) I make up for it by being indestructible.

#ChaseForBookNine

Noelle said...

*Disturbed voice* I'm INDESTRUCTIBLE

Ay, I have those dreams a lot... They're ghastly. You can't move at all, but you want to make a sound, but nothing comes out. Blegh

Star Inkbright said...

@Adra: YES. :)

And - they do sound like horrible, awful dreams. :/

#ChaseForBookNine

Noelle said...

That is a great song! It's ma jam yo.
*Bobs head with the beat*
*Has started at the beginning of Homestuck and is now attempting to go through the entire thing oh noes*

*Still has Latin*

Hm.

Kerli is a really good singer. I love her :D

Maralie Lily Charm said...

When you feel my heat
Look into my eyes
It’s where my demons hide
It’s where my demons hide
Don’t get too close
It’s dark inside
It’s where my demons hide
It’s where my demons hide

Star Inkbright said...

@Adra: Good luck. :)
And - IT IS A GREAT SONG.
BY A GREAT BAND.
YES. :)

I don't know Kerli, though, I'm sorry. :/

What's everyone up to?

Star Inkbright said...

I have a side parting, and I've ahd this same parting for as long as I can remember, and so my head has a tendency to tilt to the side. :P

#ChaseForBookNine

Star Inkbright said...

Oh, I'm up to pretty much nothing at the moment. :)

I was out all morning, so I am dragging out my I-just-got-in time out for a bit . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

But sooner or later, I'll probably be up to memorising German. :/ I have an assessment on Tuesday. And then our French teacher wants us to have our French assessment learnt for Wednesday, so I'm going to try and do that on Tuesday night. :P

#ChaseForBookNine

Noelle said...

Yes.

I do too :P

Star Inkbright said...

What are YOU up to? :)

#ChaseForBookNine

Noelle said...

Oh, good luck to you, then. Studying.. I think I have an English test on Tuesday..

Star Inkbright said...

I sometimes wonder if my brain is being affected by it leaning on one side.

Hmm.

*googles it*

I'm reading homestuck and avoiding going downstairs. Waiting for 12:30 to come by so I can go to lunch..

#ChaseForBooKNine

Star Inkbright said...

Hmm.

"The left hemisphere of the brain is most active in mathematically oriented people while people with more activity in the right hemisphere appear to favour the creative approach to living. If you always part your hair on one side this may help you to determine, which part of your brain is more active and whether you approach living like a fact-oriented analyst or a creative artist."

And - okay. :) *looks at clock hand* *tells it to move*

#ChaseForBooknine

Noelle said...

OH MY GOSH

My part is on the left, so most of my hair is on the right.

What

What

What

Star Inkbright said...

OH GOSH.

When they say 'parting on the left' and 'parting on the right', do they mean MY left and right, or the left and right of the person looking at me straight-on?

#ChaseForBookNine

Star Inkbright said...

*laughs at me and Adra freaking out about hair partings*

#ChaseForBookNine

Noelle said...

YOUR left and right, methinks

THaT makes sense

Because I'm totally right-minded.
Even my horoscope says so

STAR
THIS IS SO COOL

Star Inkbright said...

ARGHHHHHHHHHHHH WHY WILL GOOGLE NOT GIVE ME A STRAIGHT ANSWER????

#ChaseForBookNine

Star Inkbright said...

@Adra: MY left and right?

Are you sure?

Okay. :) :)

And - YAAAAAAY! :)

#ChaseForBooKNine

Star Inkbright said...

Yes, pretty sure it's MY left and right. :)

#ChaseForBookNine

Noelle said...

Yes, it is. We did a unit about this in one of my science classes at some point.

Star Inkbright said...

@Adra: THANK YOU. :)

I think I might be one of the only people getting muddled over this. :P

And - everyone's going on about your hair part affecting your career. What the fuck. :P That's stupid. I'm sure employers won't decide who to employ based on their HAIR PARTING. -_-

#ChaseForBookNine

Noelle said...

What?

Does that even makes sense? Why would they even CARE about a hair part?

Oh, and sorry for the late replies. my internet is slow... It might have something to do with that solar corona/flare thing the other day

Star Inkbright said...

@Adra: IKR. :P

And, that's fine. :)

#ChaseForBooknine

Hey Star! I posted two more posts of Skyrim screenshots if you're interested, including my TARDIS and some other stuff. :)

@Adra: Okay. :/

#ChaseForBookNine

Dragona Pine said...

Star, yes my TARDIS is very TARDIS-y. All the controls work and stuff, too. It can take me to 60 destinations. ^^

Alastair Cruciatus said...

Rewatching Spy Kids 3- I haven't seen it in years- and there's this scene where they figure out this girl isn't real, and then the maker of the game speaks through her and she looks so shocked, and I just realized how sad it is. I never thought about it before, but it's so sad how she really has no control over who she is. In the game she starts to develop her own personality, and a relationship with one of the other players, and then at the end he runs his hand right through her and it just stings so much. She's such an underutilized character, though. Like, I could write a novel just about her.

#ChaseForBook9

Star Inkbright said...

@Dragona: Yay! :)

That's awesome. :)

@Ari: :/ Why don't you borrow the idea and try?
I haven't seen the movie, but it sounds . . . not cool, because sadness, but you know what I mean, I hope. :)

And, hi. :)

#ChaseForBookNine

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

Cool Ari!

Dragona Pine said...

Oh and that spell which means I can move things around and throw them, is like my favourite spell in the game. Especially with something you can throw FAR, like people, Draugr, skeletons, cows, chickens, evil rabbits...

Alastair Cruciatus said...

Yeah, I might do that, Star. She's such a small part. Like, she's not even part of the plot. She's a minor character, but there are, like, 20 of those in this movie.

It's like this song Hatsune Miku sings- she's part of a computer program called vocaloid that sings songs. So if you wrote a song, you could have a computer generated voice sing it. She has a song about being deleted, and it's so well done because sometimes she sings way too fast and then sometimes her voice shorts out, and you can hear her breaking down, and it's really sad.

Noelle said...

That is sad... Yet, kinda reminds me of a Cyberman.


Ah damn. >.< msdmsd

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

I ought to mention, even though Jekyll and Hyde arent my creation if you ever want to collab with either or both you can. I can't guarentee if you ask to work with Jekyll that Hyde will remain silent but its a risk always with them

Alastair Cruciatus said...

Zaf- well, it would be like if I started controlling all of Niccolò's actions, and made him a convenient plot device instead of a character. So he'd just be decomposing on my head, and no one would know , because none of you are in my head. And it's just really sad how easily fictional characters can be taken advantage of or changed or deleted altogether .

*in my head, not on it

#ChaseForBook9

Alastair Cruciatus said...

Yeah, it kind of does sound like a Cyberman, Adra. I think I just caught myself using some of their terminology.

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

I know, I would hate to see him go. He's so real sometimes I forget he isn't real, in a sense of his own body and all. But still it is sad how fast characters can go

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

Hey Ari, you can hear Nic talk all the time. Does he ever actually annoy you? I mean I doubt he could annoy you now but has he ever?

He's fascinating and unique, a trait he is known for. And unpredictable.

Noelle said...

It's actually sunny outside? *Shies away from the window with a hiss*

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

I saw a bit of sunlight and hissed, tis been too dark

Noelle said...

Hmm...

What does " 'Tis " mean anyway?
"It is", perhaps..

I'll have to make a note of that

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

Huh good question

Alastair Cruciatus said...

He used to be really annoying. Really, really annoying. I went to Disney for the first time and he just wouldn't shut up about how pathetic it was that families and children spent hundreds of dollars to shuffle into a crowded, humid park to worship monopolized stereotypes. That's actually why I originally decided to give him a voice here- so he might shut up in my head. It worked, for the most part. But he's a lot nicer now.

Noelle said...

Ah, I am so going to be late

Right

I have made a decision. I am going to move to Greenland, and live in the cold, rainy weather instead of this 'sun-in-your-eyes' type that I have here.

Noelle said...

^^True about Disney, though.

Alastair Cruciatus said...

'Tis does mean it is, I'm pretty sure.

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

It would make sense, since the apostrophe is at the beginning, meaning a previous letter had been removed.

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

Cool Ari yo know Jekyll and Nic should get together one day, Jekyll is researching the true name to see if Hyde has one.

Okay brb cage time back in half hour

Alastair Cruciatus said...

Well, sure, but there's also some merit to the fact that it can make people really happy, and I was trying to focus on that aspect of it.

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

Goodbye, Zaf

Noelle said...

Of course it can...

I have a whole debate that the reason so many teenagers are depressed and sad, is because the majority of their life was spent believing that only good things happen, and Disney is the sole provider of that idea.

But I can't get into that right now

Noelle said...

Not sole. *main

I have to go. Bye.

Alastair Cruciatus said...

Ok, bye Adra! *hugs*
That's interesting. I can see how that would work.

I keep trying to avoid this place, but I always find myself ghosting anyway.

What is wrong with my life?

...

Besides the obvious bits.

Anyway, since I'm here...

I had a dream once that I wasn't real... The world kept going on normally-ish, but I had never existed and was just floating along, watching...

Not exactly relevant to the conversation, but...

Anyway, yeah. Not here. I think. I might be lying.

Gonna try to work on my recycled cathedral, though...

Star Inkbright said...

I'm in a good mood now, because I had a really big argument with my sister (who is, like, really argumentative and good at getting what she wants), and the reason I'm in a good mood is because I got rather emotional during that argument and so now I'm happy. (?)
It's like . .. when I went ice skating today, I fell over. It was a rather spectacular fall - I felt myself falling, skidded on the spot in a demented jerky circle and then fell down. :P
Then I stood up, and then I couldn't stop laughing, and then I skated to the side and was just laughing my head off, and then I was in a good mood for a bit so I'm glad I fell over, and, like . . . is it normal to get really happy after negative emotion?
I suppose crying releases happy endorphins and that, but still. :P

I'm just sort of pondering by this point, it's fine. :)

@Adra and Ari (mostly Ari but only because she was saying more): That's really interesting. :) :) :) *stores in head to think about and reference to*

That's what I do with interesting thoughts, you know. I mostly try to remember them so I can add to my bank of information and build views around them . . . I don't really think on them at the time. :P

Star Inkbright said...

@Lantern: :) *hugs* You can be here if you want to be, but if you don't want to be, obviously don't. :) :)
And - that sounds like an interesting but sad dream, and I think it is relevant. :)

#ChaseForBookNine

Star Inkbright said...

When I type questions into Google, I have to make sure the language I'm using is simple (really simple. Like, 'wrong' instead of 'incorrect') so the search suggestions and results pick up on me and I'm just like WHY.

Fabi S. - Fashion-Conscious Fire Wraith said...

[hugs Star]

I'm gone until Derek posts again, but at the same time, not really. But thanks.

And yeah, it was interesting and sad.,,

Star Inkbright said...

@Lantern: *nods* It sounds like it was. :)

And - see you then if you don't comment till then, I guess. :) :)

(and even if I do see you before, I'll still see you then, but hopefully you know what I mean. :P
