Progress Report

161,556 words. That's how long the book is right now. I wanted to have the edit done by tonight, but unfortunately that's not going to happen. I'm up at 6 in the morning to catch a plane to Leeds, so I'm about to hit the sack.

Oh, and for those of you who were pleading with me to keep LSODM as long as possible... you've got your wish. My editor Nick and my agent Michelle both got back to me, suggesting tiny changes here and there, but nothing that would shorten the book.

So the HUGE amount of characters stay in. The MASSIVE battles stay in. The HILARIOUS jokes and LIGHTNING-FAST wit stay in. Verily, it is a good day to be a Minion.

And I've just been chatting to Laura, who calls it the "deepest and darkest one yet". So I've got her all-important seal of approval, which makes me happy.

When it's out, when you've read it, I'll talk more about the writing of it, and the various problems I had to deal with in order to make it work. Everything from Book Two onwards has been leading up to LSODM, after all. Of all the books, this is the one I was certain about from the very beginning, in 2005, but it was one I was the most unsure about when I was actually writing it. So it comes as a relief to know it's actually good.

So... tomorrow I'm in Leeds— the tickets to which are now sold out— and on Saturday I'm signing in Waterstones in York at 11AM— and no tickets needed.

I'm been really quiet lately, on the Blog and on Twitter, and I do apologise for that, but I had to devote all my attention to the book. Now that it's (practically) done, I can get back to normal. Which'll be... er... nice.

I guess...

Trip Castalan, Lord of The Hobbits, The Fourth Most Popular Folk/Parody Banana Thief In The Land said...

Also Mara, you're name...

You aren't a nobody, by nature of existence itself you are somebody. (Sorry, I always slip in some bad philosophy in these things, I'm trying to stop) But Mara, a nobody can slip away without a trace, they die and nobody cares, they have no impact upon the world in which we live. Ask yourself, would no one care if you just slipped away? In case you think of answering that wrong, the answer is no. Your family would care, your friends would care, we would care. I once thought this phrase up but never told it to anyone, but I think it's applicable now: Every death is a cannon ball shot through the canvass of happiness. It doesn't convey my message very well, but it's basically saying that in fact, whenever anyone dies, it isn't only them that is affected. It's all the people who ever knew them, and then their friends and relations, and even some of theirs. In our modern works, each of us touches so many lives, no one is nobody, and everyone means something to someone.

AND ALSO
TODAY WASN'T THAT BAD FOR A THURSDAY
SO I'M HAPPY.

BUT I HAD TO ASK FOR EXTRA TIME ON THGC SO NOW I FEEL REALLY BAD. -_-

I NEARLY ALWAYS ASK THE FOR EXTRA TIME. I DIDN'T LAST TIME OR THE FIRST TIME BUT I'VE ALWAYS HAD TO BEFORE AND IT MAKES ME FEEL REALLY GUILTY. :/

(It's technically my fault for requiring it, but yeahs)

#ChaseForBookNIne

And btw

Two of my friends

Have both got writing on their hands

And it says




#ChaseForBook9











I AM SO HAPPY.

I didn't tell themn to or anything. I explained why I had it on my arms when people asked and then one of my friends put it on her arm without telling me, just showed me it, and now her and our friend have it on their hands.

And them and my other friend are using it on Facebook and Instagram.

I BE SO GRATEFUL.

Hi Star

You have awesome friends :)

#ChaseForBook9

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

Star your friends sound cool. only one of my friends is like me. (Obsessed with books)

#ChaseForBook9

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

Just to let you know I'm going to write a story with my Bloglandian friends in it. I thought since most of you were here I'd just ask you now. And to be clear you won't be able to read it until I finish. Cos I'll forget to update it so it'll be easier if I write it all and somehow put it on the internet. Okay if I put you all in it??????

#ChaseForBook9

Star Inkbright said...

I love my friends.

You know, for about a year, I would have steadfastedly thought that my blogfriends were better than my irl friends. But now, y'know, I'm not quite so sure, because I've made awesome new friends (the ones with #ChaseForBOok9 on their hands) and I got closer to my other friend.

Only one of friends is really like me, Rhydian, so don't worry, that's normal. :) When you're awesome like us, it's harder find people like us because we are surrounded by idiots. :P
(My mum always says that it can take a while to find the people who are like you, but that they are out there and you will find each other)
Our other friends think me and my friend are crazy because we care so much about our characters and we have these long, meaningful, metaphorical conversations pondering the meaning of our lives and stuffs. :P

#ChaseForBookNine

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

[hugs Lucy]

STAR IT IS VERY COMPLICATED, I AM TYPING IT UP WHILE EATING BREAKFAST.

Rhydian- If you want to put Fabi in it, sure, go ahead. Just warn me if you're going to kill her.

#ChaseForBook9

Star Inkbright said...

(By metaphrocal conversations, I mean conversations involving many metaphors. I'm apparently water, which fits in well with the ink and bubbles things, and my friend is both a lone wolf and an atomic bomb. There are a few atomic bombs, but there are many sparks, which can set off the atomic bombs, and I am vital for survival as I, being water, prevent theatomic bombs from going off. Once an atomic bomb goes off, it delivers lots of damage and pain and things never really recover afterwards. Vital things we talked about were - should atomic bombs have the right to exist seeing as they're only going to explode and cause pain? And - should atomic bombs isolate themselves from everyone else so as not to cause pain? And - was the lone wolf always alone? And - is a lone wolf with silver stripes different to one without? And - how can we ensure that the atomic bombs will never go off?

She also deduced that she had to stick with me all the time so I'm stop her going off, and that I was her cure.

It was . . . freaky. :P

But I'd have to tell my parents, who won't believe you're actually you.
BUT STILL. SO COOL.

I don't know what to do now, but Hunter would do, so I'll do what Hunter would do.

I know Jeff, because I know everyone, therfore I must know Jeff *nods*

You either press the off button or unplug it;P
*isn't laughing at the fact that Star can't turn off a radio*;D

Star Inkbright said...

OHMYGOSH, RIGHT.

I'm reading what I wrote about Huntington's disorder back in September, and it's so odd, because whenever I read 'Huntingtons' my brain screams 'HUNTER!', but when I was writing it, my brain wasn't associating it with HUnter at all.

. . .

It doesn't sound that odd, written odd, but it FEELS odd.

ARE YOU LEARNING ABOUT GENETICS, STAR?!

Yy x YY = Yy, YY, YY, Yy

and that crap?:P

#ChaseForBook9

Aisling Dubh said...

Star you press the off button, while telling it to shut up.

#ChaseForBook9

Star Inkbright said...

There isn't an off button. There are FM-type buttons at the top and a volume button . . .

OH! You UNPLUG it? O_O

OHHHHHHHHHHHH. *hits self on head*

SHOULD HAVE THOUGHT OF THAT. D:

CAN'T BELIEVE I DIDN'T THINK OF IT. -_-

THE RADIO HAS BEEN WASTIGN AN EXTRA HOUR OF ELECTRICITY, HARMING THE PLANET, BECAUSE I WAS SO STUPID. *facepalm*

*goes to switch it off*

*jumps back upstairs* I JUST TURNED IT OFF AT THE PLUG AND IT STOPPED MAKING NOISES!!!!!!!!!! :) *is proud of self*

@Mushroom: Um, actually, we did about geneics a bit at the beginning of the year, and now I'm revising it because end of year test. Right now, we're doing about . . .

. . .

Wait whilst I flick through my science books to find out.

*flicks*

Ploymers and nontechnology and blah with one teacher, and . . .

Let me check . . .

*flicks through other book*

Power stations with the other teacher! :)

(Yes, I'm that much of a fail I couldn't remember)

MY RADIO DOESN'T HAVE AN OFF BUTTONNNNNNNNNN.

I'll take a picture of it. :)

My dad just came home, so picture of my radio can wait until another day. :/

Star Inkbright said...

C2. :)

C1 was air quality and I revised it today! *Nialldles*

I liked finding out how the new car smell in cars was created by the plasticisers slipping out. :)

(No, I am not reuired to know that. -_- It was just a fact in the textbook.)

I'll have to revise that one, toooooo . . . :/

#ChaseForBookNine

Luciana said...

I did Triple, Star. So C1, 2 and 3 were different for me. :P

#ChaseForBook9

Star Inkbright said...

I hope we get asked about Huntington's in the test. I like thinking about both disorders and Hunter, so. :)

(I didn't feel any affinity for Huntington's when I wrote all these notes. Noooooooooooooo this is so creepy)

Star Inkbright said...

I'M DOING TRIPLE, STAR.

I just haven't picked my options yet.

We do C1, C2, C3, P1, P2, P3, B1, B2, and B3 without picking our options as a whole year group, then we'll do the rest in our triple/additional optioned state. :)

(And apparently we'll learn the same things and all)

I would just like to point out that in no way am I saying you're wrong. I'm just telling you how things are at my school, because they may be different to your school, plus you are two years older than me and did the old GCSEs, whereas we'll do the new ones with all our exams at the end of year eleven and no resits. :)

ALTHOUGH, IT WAS NEVER QUITE DEFINED WHAT MY TYPE OF NONSENSICAL THING WAS. :)

1400 million!!!! *Nialldles*

@Ais: Sweet shops are awesome. :)

Well, the one in our village is. It's an old fashioned one with jars behind the counter. It used to be 80p for 100g, but then it was 90p for 100g, and now it's £1 for 100g. ANd they sell really nice cakes and stuff. And I'm egtting carried away now.

Hunter keeps changin his mind about what he likes and what he doesn't. For example:
Hunter: I love coffee. Coffee's my favouite drink, did you know?
Ez: I though you hated coffee.
Hunter: What? No, I didn't.
Ez: Yes, you di-id . . .
Hunter: How could I have not liked COFFEE?
Ez: That's what I said.
Hunter: But then you'd've been talking I to I. *grins*
Ez: *sighs* . . . What?
Hunter: You'd have called me I, but I am blind.
Ez: Nope, not getting it.
Hunter: *looks at her very directly* Ez?
Ez: Yes?
Hunter: How do you LIVE with being so stupid? I'm serious. How have you managed to SURVIVE this long? Why haven't you died of starvation or thirstion or irritation?
[Dying of irritation be either irritating people so much they kill you or being irritated by something so much you commit suicide]
Ez: How have you survived with hating coffee? It's impossible to live without coffee.
Hunter: I never ahted coffee.
Ez: *sighs* Yes, you DID.
Hunter: When do you think this was?
Ez: Um, YESTERDAY?
Hunter: DYesterday? Don't you think I would remember YESTERDAY?
Ez: Actually, I did, but that was before I realised just how stupid you are.
Hunter: YOU'RE calling me stupid?
Ez: Search your memory-room-thing.
Hunter: Okay.
Ez: Really?
Hunter: I'm not going to FIND anything. *closes eyes*
Ez: *waits*
Hunter: *eyes still closed* Oh yeah.
Ez: See?
Hunter: *opens eyes* Well, you learn from past errors.
Ez: Only if you remember them.
Hunter: I do remember them! I remembered it.
Ez: So, do you hate coffee or love coffee?
Hunter: Love iiiiit . . . Coffee is everything.It's the me of the drinks world. Do you think I'm an utter and complete and brain-eaten - by yellow shower curtains because my theory is real and you are a heathen who is going to die and . . . What was I saying?
Ez: Yes.
Hunter: What?
Ez: Yes, you're an idiot.
Hunter: I'm sorry, how did we get here?
Ez: Ambulance.
Hunter: No, this conversation.
Ez: You said you loved coffee.
Hunter: *gives her concerned look* Are you feeling alright? I hate coffee.
Ez: Then why did you say you loved it?
Hunter: I never said that. I hate coffee. Come on, we had this conversation yesterday.
Ez: We also had this converstaion TODAY, and you said you loved it.
Hunter: Why would I love it? It's a disgusting substance.
Ez: Coffee is the you of the drinks world, you brain-eaten gremlins.
Hunter: No, the gremlins eat the brains. And not the literal brain. Besides, my brain would not be eaten, because I take precautions, whereas heathens like you are open to the dangers of yellow shower curtains and one day, you shall suffer the consequences, and I shall say I told you so.
Ez: And then you'll rescue me.
Hunter: By pouring coffee on the gremlins, because it's so horrible they'll die from the torture of it touching them.
Ez: *picks up Hunter's coffee and tips it on his head.
Hunter: *freezes* *collapses to floor and lies there unmoving, tension out of body, crumpled uncomfrotably*
Ez: *laughs*
Hunter: *doesn't move*
Ez: *kicks him*
Hunter: *doesn't move*
Ez: *chucks coffee cup in bin and walks off*

(Yeah, got a tad carried away.)

Flora: Um. Thanks? :)
I don't really feel I'm authorised to be thanked, because I didn't say any of it, they just exist, except they chose my head to exist in, and when I write something witht them I just plonk them in a scenario and watch them go. :)

(Serously, that conversation went nothing like I expected it to. I often feel like they do stuff and then I'm left there going whaaaaaaaaat)
