Rundown

This day last week I was in Leeds. First, I visited the school in Huddersfield that had won the Skulduggery photo competition, and got chatting to a room full of highly amusing students. Then it was on to Leeds itself, to Waterstones, for an event, a question and answer session, and a signing that went on for, ahem, quite a while.

The following day we were in York, again at Waterstones, for a signing that AGAIN went on for longer than we had expected. Three hours in Leeds, four hours in York. Of course, some people (who shall remain nameless) chose to go to BOTH, which may explain the length...

I came back with the usual assortment of letters and notes (which I still have to go through), presents (including a garden gnome), and Skittles. Because I like Skittles.

It was so much fun, the Watersones staff were all ultra-cool, and everyone kept me grinning from beginning to end. So thank you everyone who made it out, and thank you to everyone who braved the long queues...!

So I got home on Saturday night, and I've been home for the last week, and I haven't done ANY work at all. Well, almost. Okay, so I did some businessy type stuff, but I didn't WRITE anything. Kind of. Okay, so I'm already planning the final Skulduggery book, and possibly a few other things, but that is ALL. I am taking a BREAK. Mostly.

So now that I'm taking a break, I can give a quick rundown on stuff I've been enjoying over the past few months...

Man of Steel: This was... good. It was a good film. Wasn't brilliant. I went to it with my mum, sisters and brother. My mum and sisters all thought it was amazing. My brother and I were more subdued— and seeing as how my brother and I are the only ones whose opinion I trust, I trusted us.

Dexter, season seven: Ah, the penultimate season of the serial killer hiding in plain sight. I always enjoy Dexter. Even the seasons that people say were weak, I loved. Only one more season to go, though, and then I'll have to say goodbye to one of my favourite characters. Will he be found out? Will he be arrested? Will he live? Will he die?

See, now I know how YOU guys feel...

Game of Thrones: Pure awesome. Not as awesome as the books, but awesome nonetheless. Jon Snow, Arya, Dany and Tyrion for the win.

Doctor Who: It'll be so sad when Matt Smith leaves. He's made a brilliant Doctor— childlike, impulse, excitable, yet so incredibly dark and lonely. And of course Jenna Louise Coleman is wonderful and gorgeous. (But Amy will always be my first love.)

Banshee: A weird one, this. An ex-con assumes the identity of a dead man and becomes the Sheriff of a town called Banshee. It has a lovely idea at its core that it hasn't managed to live up to, but I'm still watching. Definitely adults-only stuff, and even though the action does nod its head towards realism every chance it gets, it's still way over the top. Though I'm starting to question how no one has fired a sheriff who beats up suspects in front of the whole town...

True Blood, season five: Amazingly, this show gets better and better. It's moved away from its human/vampire love story beginnings and developed its own mythology. This is wonderful stuff, fantastically inventive, very funny, but again— adults only.

Assassin's Creed 3: errrr... I kinda stopped playing. All the Assassin Creed games are very repetitive, and I just couldn't muster the enthusiasm to finish.

Resident Evil 6: Dreadful. Again, I stopped playing. It just wasn't FUN.

Skyrim: I stopped playing because I needed to write, but I do intend to go back to this. Oblivion was brilliant.

Metal Gear Rising: Awful. If I wanted a fighting game, I'd have bought a fighting game. I buy Metal Gear games because I want to sneak around and kill people when they don't expect it. (By the way, I've just seen the trailer for the next Metal Gear game, which looks like it'll fulfil every gaming need I could possibly possess.)

N0S4R2, by Joe Hill: Brilliant book. Loved every page.

The Shining Girls, by Lauren Beuke: I read this immediately after N0S4R2 and it did not suffer by comparison. Fantastic.

Annnnd I've just been emailed the edited copy of LSODM, so I shall be going through that this weekend, making last-minute changes and additions... and then it'll REALLY be done.

Honest.

Rhydian, or possibly fake and evil kenspeckle?

*whispers to zafiara* It was a trap. They got him with a remnant. As you said this isn't your problem, go hide in the tree, I'll handle this.

*quietly* I have a few tricks up my sleeve, go and get the soul catcher and come back here so we can defeat the remnant.

*loudly* Then why do you have black veins all over your face? You aren't Rhydian! You are merely a creature using his form! NOW GET OUT!

#ChaseForBook9

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

*runs away* You are not using the soul catcher on me!

*slips into a meditative state and focuses on the souls of those around him. Rhydian's has a black slither worming through it. Attacks the black slither with mind-soul energy stuff. (this is a really confusing plane to explain under such tight time constraints*

Your welcome! *hugs * Don't worry. Because I'm Rhydian now I'm nicer. Before I was adjusting to him. Wanna be friends?

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

What! Leave me alone! Me and Rhydian are the same person

#ChaseForBook9

Elder Arratay Shadows said...

No, you're not. Rhydian is a good person. You... aren't. Get out of him. Please.

I will not allow this to continue. You are under arrest-huff....
*gets elbowed in the stomach* I *wheeze* can't believe this is my second fight today...

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

I don't understand. Me and Rhydian are the same person now. Just leave me be!

#ChaseForBook9

Elder Arratay Shadows said...

I'm taking you in. You have the right to not much at all, really. Remnant, you have one more chance to get out, but I am NOT leaving you in there. Rhydian... he is too good for you. He's in a league of his own.

Get out now or be ripped out in a minute. Either way, you're leaving.

Elder Arratay Shadows said...

YOU ARE NOT RHYDIAN! Rhydian is a good person, he saved my life and was there for me, and anyone who needed help. You, on the other hand, are a murderer.

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

I'll leave. What mistake you've made. When I escape I can go wherever I want. But if you got me you could have saved everyone else. *leaves Rhydian*

*wakes up* Think so...what...What happened?...

#ChaseForBook9

Elder Arratay Shadows said...

You were, ahem... possessed. After you healed me, you went a little crazy... The Remnant is gone now.

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

*blinks* Remnant? I was possessed? On a scale one to ten how bad was I?

#ChaseForBook9

Elder Arratay Shadows said...

Um. You killed a mortal... So I guess a seven. It could have been worse, I suppose. But still. Are... are you okay? The Remnant said you'd never killed before...

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

Thank God I don't remember...I suppose I'm okay. As long as I have my free will I guess I have to move on...

#ChaseForBook9

Elder Arratay Shadows said...

Are you sure you're all right? Do you remember... anything?

You thought you were Kenspeckle. I believe you were possessed at that point. That was when you brought me back.

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

I think I might have got possessed at School. I talked to Death at break and after School it's blurry. So when I arrived later I must've been possessed all that time. I'm fine. How did I get possessed? Who sent the Remnant?

#ChaseForBook9

Elder Arratay Shadows said...

We don't know yet. I'll ask Zafira to launch an investigation.

Elder Arratay Shadows said...

Wait! I'm an Elder now, I can do that! I'll look into it.

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

I'll do my best to remember who put it in me

#ChaseForBook9

Elder Arratay Shadows said...

Thanks. I just scanned the last page, You were possessed around the time where you came back from burying Kenspeckle. Trip noticed it first, he and Zaffy tried to help.
They failed.

Do you remember anyone at the grave site?

Elder Arratay Shadows said...

I have to go soon. Just putting that out there, 'cause I might just poof into midair.

Elder Arratay Shadows said...

I know who did it, I think...

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

No...it's blank...give it a day or so and I might remember. *hugs* Thanks. For saving me!

#ChaseForBook9

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

WHO!?!?

#ChaseForBook9

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

I find the word FAILED offensive. I in fact used the most effective strategy against remnants without simply killing them currently know to mankind! AND I was under full belief I had killed it inside of Rhydian. Sure I could have hurt Rhydian's soul a little in the process but it was my only option.

Speaking of which, Rhydian, are you feeling in any way sadistic, psychopathic or sociopathic?

#ChaseForBook9

Elder Arratay Shadows said...

Um. You won't know her, but it might be Nagana Curse.

*hugs back* Just returning the favor, my friend! I have to go. See you tomorrow?

*hugs, blows a kiss* I... I think I am developing a crush on you. Be my Blogboyfriend?

#ChaseForBook9

Star Inkbright said...

"Rhydian is a good person, he saved my life and was there for me, and anyone who needed help. You, on the other hand, are a murderer."

Those two sentences make me feel rather sad. :(

Because like, murderers can be good people too. It's like, as soon as you kill someone everyone hates you. It's socially excluding . . . :(

WYou might say, that's why you shouldn't murder people.

But what if you're insane and can't help it?

What if you need to murder in order to do fabulous things for the world?

What if you killed someone, and now you regret it, and you're trying to start over . . . but everyone hates you beacuse of your past, and however hard you try to disguise it, moving houses and that, people always find out and then hate you.
You would never get a chance.
And then if everyone hated you, it would be much harder to turn over a new leaf than if you had support.

Murderers shouldn't be despised. They should be helped. They should be taught how to be gooder people, or how to not give in to basser instincts if they're good people already (and a lot of them will be). Just because they killed someone doesn't stop them being people. And if they murdered someone, then they very clearly need help so should be more entitled to help than others.
How do you expect to teach them how to not be murderers by hating them?

Hating just adds more bad emotion. And bad emotion leads to bad stuff happening.


. . .

Sorry. Hunter's a murderer, so it kind of hurt when it was said that the Remnant wasn't a good person because he was a murderer. Hunter's a good person, I believe. He doesn't just put his life on the line for people, he dangles it way over the line. He's changed the world for the better in numerous ways. His whole organisation is made to help. He's always offering to help people out with this and that, always jumping in and improving things and making himself severely late for this that or the other. Many people owe him their lives, both in literal terms and in figurative terms.
I don't think it's fair that all of that is ignored just because he's killed a few . . . well, a lot of . . . people.

It's like Myrnin in The Morganville Vampires! Because he's insane, and so keeps going crazy and killing people, everyone treats him as if he's dangerous and a horrible murderer and want to lock him up in cages and won't let people they love near him and are scared of being near him themselves. But Claire, although he keeps forgetting who she is and almost kills her and all that, still sees the intelligent, energetic young man and finds it so sad that he's overlooked and lost in all the insanity.

Yes. *Nialldles*

. . . Sorry, just had to make that point. :)

I think I got sidetracked and kept going on and on about things, but oh wellllllll. :)

Star Inkbright said...

Hahaha, today at school we went to this computer room so three of us could do homework, and me and my otehr friend stood behind them doing nothing, and my friend pulled at a chair and told me to sit down because I looked odd standing, so I sat down right there on the carpet, and she looked down at me and went "Not on the floor!"
That was a very Hunter thing to do. XD
And then I sat down on the chair, and then I asked if I could randomly lie down on the floor, and she was like no, so I was like awww, because Hunter does that as well. And then she said you can lie on the floor at home, and I was like there isn't enough space of my bedroom floor coz it's full of junk, and went off to sidetrackedly explain that last night when I was meant to be asleep and the light was off I wanted to pace around my room so I had to shove all this junk to the side so I could do so. And then I just randomly paced in the dark, haha. Hunter doesn't do that, though.

@Maraness: I THINK YOU HAD THE IMMENSE POTENTIAL FOR FANGIRLNESS IN YOU ALREADY. XD

*giggles* It's so funny how Hunnter killed Harry.

I actually forgot Harry was called Harry, you know. I just remember him as the dude who died because he was trying to break up the fight between Zil and Hunter. XD

It's so annoying how Hunter-in-Gone's name is Hunter. -_-

I DON'T MIND HOLLY. JUST, HUNTERRRRRRR. D:

*laughs at how Hunter killed Harry*

And it's an awesome book. :)

Thank you. *hugs*

LANAAAAAAAAAA. D:
Poor Lana.
THE DARKNESS IS A HORRIBLE ORGANISM.

(The 'poor Lana' was about the Darknbess being in her head, btw. It wasn't a spoiler for her dying or anything, in case you got that impression).

So, believing. :)

And I just wrote YOU instead of YEAH.

@Maraness: I almost embarked on a similar quest to find out whether or not blood tasted of metla and, if not, what it DID taste of.
I didn't, mostly because I was at school. XD

I DON'T GET WHY EVERYONE WAS SO FUSSED THOUGH. I'D SPENT YEARS ON END JUST BITING MY FINGERS TO BLEEDING POINT REGULARY (I do it slightly less extremely now. Slightly) AND NOBODY GIVED A . . .

um . . .

@Maraness: I don't really want to torture myself.

The first time listening to it was just very depressing. The second time was torture. I guess I'm interested to see if I've got any more used to it?

It's a truly amazing piece of artwork, however. :)

#ChaseForBookNine

Star Inkbright said...

@Mara: IT'S A GOOD THING. :)

@Fabi: YOu aren't mean at all. :)
Well, actually, that's a lie, because nobody is 0% mean.

But let's just say I was speaking metaphorically. :)

#ChaseForBookNine

Maralie Lily Charm said...

Star - ...

You've gotta stop hurting yourself. *pokes*

Speaking of hurt, POOR BREEZE D:
Burns hurt :/
I think Brianna, Lana, Dekka and Taylor are my favourite characters... I like Diana, Edilio and Jack too, though :P

#ChaseForBook9

Star Inkbright said...

@Mara: Yay? :)

@Fabi: I was first introduced to smiley faces when I first read the blog (it took me ages to work out what the random colons bracket things at the end of some sentences were. Seriously, ages. *laughs* I'm so pathetic), and the ones I firt saw had no noses, so therefore, my smiley faces have no noses. :)

[facepalm] I really listen to a lot of music, don't I?

#ChaseForBook9

Star Inkbright said...

Brianna annoys me . . . but that's personal. :)

Taylor, I'm not keen on. :/

DEKKA AND EDILIO ARE AWESOME.

SO IS LANA.

Jack . . . poor Jack, he got in with all the bad crowd and argh.

Speaking of Gone, and Drake, and whipping people - in OUAT, Rumpelstiltskin/Mr Gold was beating Hook with his walking stick, really hard, and he just kind of was unscathed ecept for this bleeding nose and I was like whaaaat.
I get they had to keep it suitable for younger viewers, but they still went down in my esteem a bit.

*shivers*

my brothers watching "Coraline" in the background...

i hate that movie... it's so creepy

Snow said...

hello...?

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

A lot.

The usual "Why can't Fabi control the weather?" thing.

Never seen the movie...read the book though. Creepy, yes. Weird, yes, but you could say I enjoyed it.

#ChaseForBook9

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

Sorry I was distant, being yelled at. :-/

And packing a week's worth of my clothes and my sister's entire wardrobe.

#ChaseForBook9

Snow said...

hmmm.....

my brother is making a cake and it smells delicious!

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

I want cake... But if I turned the oven on, it'd make things worse.

We don't have air conditioning, so...

And I'm guessing most people elsewhere in the world would probably laugh at us for hating 80-degree weather, but it's hotter than Seattle is equipped for and it's making me and others irritable. Msd.

#ChaseForBook9

Snow said...

okay fabi....

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

Yeah, bye, sorry.

See you in a week. I'll be on a bit tomorrow morning, I think, but you'll probably be asleep, so...

I'm good as well thanks, Rhy.

I was looking at an Atlas today and I found heaps of places that I never thought existed!
MacGillycuddy's Reeks is a REAL MOUNTAIN RANGE!!!!!!
And Drogheda is a REAL PLACE TOO!!!!
But those are the only places I found, apart from Dublin.
No Haggard, no Roarhaven (But I figured I wouldn't find it)

#ChaseForBook9

Duck said...

Hi Fabi! Bye Snow!

[I'm not repeating anyone......]

#ChaseForBook9

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

I wish Haggard was a real place. It sounds so cool in the books.

#ChaseForBook9

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

There are places that correspond to locations in the book, Val V. got to see them while she was in Ireland.

I doesn't sound that great...
