And here we are, coming in late (as usual)... The winners of the strapline competition. So many cool entries. A lot of similar ones, and unfortunately that meant we couldn't put those in the final ten. There were lots of "Burn, Baby Burn!" and suchlike, which would have been so cool to see on a cover if we'd only had one entry for it...! I love the winning entries, though, so a huge congratulations to everyone who took part.
And the winners are...
Hugo Peach
Evan Jenkins
Harriet Langley
Tom Wood
Jack Holton
Ashan Ali
Laura MacKenzie
Nigethan Sathiyalingham
Phoebe Ryall
Megan Smales
All the winners receive two signed glossy prints of the cover with their own strap line. Awesome.
Oh, and to remind you, the comments section below is NOT for spoilers!

«Oldest ‹Older 401 – 600 of 4966 Newer› Newest»HAVE FUN MITHRIA!! :P
We have a Dr Zeus saying in our school which goes like this.
"The more you learn, the more you will know, the more you know, the more places you will go"
@Fabi: Nothing's really mine in it, so yeah. :P
*hugs*
Thank you. :)
And then they started talking about railways, which my mum talks about all the time, so yeah. XD
She saw this program about how they were going to demolish the whole of Glasgow and they didn't, and it would have been TERRIBLE if they had. And she says, imagine if they hadn't shut down the railways - people nowadays would be watching programs on it and goign OH MY GOD that wuld have been terrible! All those little communities would have been cut off, there would have been so much freight on the road - thank goodness it didn't go ahead!
And it did go ahead. :/
#ChaseForBookNine
Something like that.
Gemma - Isn't that from Oh the Places You'll Go?
@Gemma: We have that in our library at school. :)
Your profile picture is epic! :)
Creative people are also really epic. I wish I was more creative, sometimes. :/
#ChaseForBookNine
*shrugs*
Aww thanks star ^.^
I dedicate this page to Mass Effect as per my tradition which I do every time I get a dedication. It is seriously the best video game I have ever played in my entire life.
And also to cheese because cheese is awesome. *throws cheese at everyone*.
And... hm...
That's about it.
@Gemma: Well, it's true. :)
I am a bubble and we do not lie. Well, except for when we do. But yeah. XD
#ChaseForBookNine
*lays down crying*
@Zaf: Are you okay? *hugs*
#ChaseForBookNine
*Pokes Zaffy* You OK?
Physically? Yes. Mentally? No.
[hugs Zaf]
Wbvd
#ChaseForBook9
uh oh...
What happened?
Forbidden to say. Forbidden Jubi forbidden by the man who wrote this post. *lays head on ground sobbing*
aah...
right...
Well I'm sobbing on multiple levels....sobbing for joy for NJ reading my entrance to the series but the rest is history *dies of crying and no feelings left*
@Zaf: . . . oh.
I won't ask, then . . .
But I will say that if there was no negative, you wouldn't appreciate the postive. Adra said last night (my last night) (I think, I'm bad with remembering times stuff happened) that she was glad that she didn't have the life her parrell universe self had, because that whilst that one was happier, in this one she appreciated the happiness more beacuse it was more rare and special.
Also - you can't have the good without the bad. I've said this numerous times before, and I think you've got the message, so I won't bore you with the whole speech. :)
#ChaseForBookNine
*Pokes the dead Zaf*
Such a shame *Shakes head sadly*
I'm afraid of that book... really. At the moment I'm glad that in Germany even book 7 isn't released yet...
@Jubi: *laughs* *hugs*
#ChaseForBookNine
We'll need to hold a funeral, I guess...
Guys I think we ought to...bury Zaf? We ought to give the Grand Mage a proper funeral. Proper one. Derek caused her death. WE NEED TO AVENGE HER DEATH
@All the Ameriminions: See? MITHRIA HASN'T EVEN GOT KOTW YET!!!
#ChaseFOrBookNine
She didn't deserve to go that way.
NO ONE deserves to go that way.....
YES WE DO, JAVIER!!!!!!
@Star: Yes, sad but true...
*grabs pitch fork* Storm Ireland guys!
@Jubi: ((*LAUGHINGNESS*))
Poor Alexis! D:
#ChaseForBookNine
@Mithria: :(
#ChaseForBookNine
Well she can still order it on Amazon or something...
BUT WE'VE HAD TO DO THAT FOR ALL THE BOOKS AFTER TFO!!
It still sucks, though, Mithria...
xP
I can still hear her though...faintly...*kneels by Zaf* her pulse is weak...she probably is going to die.
Poor grand.
@Star: In two month I will have it! But I'm afraid.... I'm afraid of Derek doing something that I won't be happy about...
Such a shame...
And now poor poor Alexis...
I'm back from my Bio test..
THAT TOOK SO LONG. LORD>
Adra, Zafira died. She dropped dead from no emotions...
ADRA!!! *Supermegatacklehugsofdoom*

Star, thanks for the comment on my story. I DID say they were very very very very mild sexual references. The next part may be less... mild. But it'll be in a mild way so everything is fine.

Oh Harralie, Harralie
Where art thou?
Thy thoughts are keen
Thy heart is full
Of love- your love- for one another
So lost are ye
In the other's eyes,
that thou art gone
from what is around ye.
Harralie, oh Harralie,
where did you go?
So lost are ye
Reminiscing of times long, long ago
What the hell was that
tadra

(mara)
tadra is a ship

oh, tadra is a ship

Wow. Uhm. Mine isn't as good as that... :P
*wipes eyes with silk hankie*
*hugs Fabi*

#ChaseForBook9
Star, did you see my comment when I said thanks for the comment?
@Mara: *more laughter XD* *hugs*
@Fabi: YAAAAAAAY! :)
@Dragona: Yes, but it was one of the comments when I went really distant, so I didn't reply to a lot of comments then. SOrry. :(
#ChaseFOrbookNine
THERE'S THESE TWO BALL DRESSES AND I CAN'T DECIDE BETWEEN THEM. D:
#ChaseForBookNine
Yes, I heard it, it's amazing!
Dying is bad, Zaf, because then you can't read LSODM! D:
#ChaseForBook9
Well then...
Star what colours are they?
Star, np. But that's what I meant when I said I was terrible when writing about things like that. ^^
I dont...I dont...I cant...*comes back to Blogland and continues screaming running in circles screaming a lot of wanting to murder Derek in his sleep*
*to the tune of Vas Happenin' Boys*
There once was a place created by the Golden God
Vas happenin' Derek, vas happenin' Derek?
People started to come here, and smile and smile
Vas happenin Derek, vas happenin Derek?
Didya knoooowwwww Tadra is a ship,
And Harralie and Snowlock are some other relationships
And oohhhhh, we can't forget Zafier,
And Harry's starting to nag me because he's having trouble with his hair
I'll just turn around to glare
Vas happenin Derek, vas happenin Derek?
Vas happenin' Derek, vas happenin' Derekkkkkkkkkkkkkk...
#ChaseForBook9
*buries face in ground* no...no..I'm not coming out...NICCOLO couldnt get me out of this *calms down and walks back* I'm better :)
@Gemma: Red and red. :)
*laughs*
Mine's blue. I like blue. But Ez likes red. :)
I did try a few other colours, but red had good ones, sooo. :)
#ChaseForBookNine
@Mara: *giggles*
#ChaseForBookNine
Ty! I did it in post- bio haze
And um... Most of it was my best attempt at Middle-Ages dialect.
I failed
I SHOULD DO SOMETHING IN EARLY ENGLISH OSHBABANJA YES
Lol Mars :D
YAY MARA
#ChaseForBook9
The first one would be easier to move in, though . . . and Ez knows that she could be attacked at any time so would probably bear that in mind.
*thinks*
#ChaseForBookNine
Damn you star, I can't help you decide if theyre the same colour and I dont have a pick
I prefer blue anyway, its my fav colour.
Wings in Korean is amazing, oh my Golden God.
#ChaseForBook9
@Gemma: Really? Ditto! :)
#ChaseForBookNine
*sits by lake and then runs and jumps into lake* just keep swimming swimming just keep swimming swimming
@Mara: Wings will always be amazing. :)
#ChaseForBookNine
Green is my favourite color
Green isn't very creative though
Emerald green is my favourite colour
@Zaf: In THGC, my character was thinking "just keep swimming" att. :)
And then she almost drowned beacuse she started swimming downwards and didn't realise. XD
LOL, StarTC is such a fail. XD
That entry began something like "As soon as the Games began I ran towards the forest, my eyes on my allies. So not on where I was going. So I tripped over something (not sure what). Yeah, that was a brilliant start. I'm sure that loads of people will sponsor me for that."
That was one of my better entries. :) I wrote it on holiday.
#ChaseForBookNine
@Adra: I like the colour green. :)
So does Ez, but the red ball dresses were better in general, I think . . .
#ChaseForBookNine
lol craaaaazy *comes out of lake drying off* Ugh downside of Necromancy is I can't use the air to dry myself off.
I'm still stuck between green and a silver gray...
Trip said a purple suit.
I NEED TO KNOW IF IT IS ALL PURPLE OR LIKE BLACK WITH PURPLE ACCENTS OR WHAT.
DAMN.
I AM SO STUCK.
NOT ONLY THAT, BUT THE SHADE OF PURPLE AND- ARGH
@Adra: Yeah, purple and green might be a bit, um.
Or it might not. Shades, as you said. :/
I read over my entry and I started laughing. That's a good sign. XD
#ChaseForBookNine
MY FRIEND AT THE 1D3D MOVIE JUST SAID THERE IS A GIRL IN THE MOVIE WHO LOOKS EXACTLY LIKE ME
YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND
THAT COULD BE ME
Guys I'm being serious I'm hyperventilating oh my god what if I'm in the movie oh god omg I'd cry I would just die.
#ChaseForBook9
*nods* I got my dress and Alexis' and Javier
@Mara: *hugs*
Tell yourself it's not you. Then if it isn't, you won't be disappointed, and if it is, it'll hit you harder. :)
*always tries to lower my expectations of things*
@Zaf: Yay! :)
#ChaseForBookNine
Omfg Mara.
MARA BREATHE
Also-
I might just have to wait and see but I'm down to two options... I might just use two anyway. Silver for the ball and green for the after party.
Either way they're better than that one.. *laughs* ONFG THAT DRESS
I have a thing for guys with blue eyes in suits for some reason... example: Daniel Craig. The perfect blue eyes...theyre the most beautiful eyes in the world...
@Adra: Using two would be cool. :)
Hey, you could use the other one if the first got lemonade split on it or something! :)
#ChaseForBookNine
Javier: Zaf the Ball smile we'll be going
Of course Javier
Javier: *kisses hand* Shhh I know
But...
Javier: the war...I understand. Focus on now. The war will still be here after the Ball *lets her head reat against self* sleep
@Gemma: Hunter has blue eyes when he's being serious and/or focused . . . His eyes change colour. :)
#ChaseForBookNine
*dies drooling*
SHIT.
#ChaseFOrBookNine
It just a REALLY FUCKING sexy dress. I think it might scare Trip away. Think... Salsa dancing. Kind of.
Yeah.
But DAMN I am tempted
No but seriously who else thinks Daniel's eyes are perfect...
No
No
No
It could be me
Aoife said it was the concert in Belfast
Oh my God
She thinks it's me

Oops, msd!

*falls on the ground* Nooooooooo Rhydiannnn
Hi Fabi!
#ChaseForBook9
@Rhydian: Hope you have a good holiday! :)
#ChaseForBookNine
Have an awesome holiday, Rhydian!
#ChaseForBook9
Well I'm going for a good cause. Helping mermaids
#ChaseForBook9
But.... But I'll miss you!
@Adra: At least he's not dead. :)
#ChaseForBookNine
Adra...it's work. The Institute need me. *nods* I'll miss you to! *hugs*
#ChaseForBook9
@Rhydian: I hope it goes well, your work. :)
#ChaseForBookNine
I have no idea how I'll manage the ball... *is crushing self under pressure that isn't even necessary but agh no*

On a happier note, hi everyone! *hugs all*

My phone is acting weird again
#ChaseForBook9
Star, that surprisingly doesn't make me feel better...?
*hugs* okay...
Hi A!
Hi Ari!
#ChaseForBook9
Hi Mara OMG
...Nel just offered me a free dead bug. How nice of her.
Hi Ari [hugs]
What do you mean by how you'll manage it? :-/
#ChaseForBook9
I see no conceivable way of getting Niccolò to go, and even if he did go he would just quietly hide in a corner, and that would just make people depressesed and I don't want that. So I could have parallel universe us go, but then we wouldn't actually go, and I want to... :/ But I don't want to make people depressed /now/, either, so feel free to ignore this. :)
#ChaseForBook9
I AM BEING BULLIED
I AM RAISING MY VOICE
EM AND LUCE ARE CYBERBULLYING ME.
THEY

OH

SHE MIGHT BE IN THE MOVIE TOO
OMG
OMG
OMG
OMG
OMG
*screams*
What if it's me?
*panics*
What if I look ugly in the video? Knowing me, I will. I don't mind if it's not me, I mean, why would I be in a movie? But still...
Msd.
#ChaseForBook9
*hugs Ari* I hope the pressure goes off and picks on someone its own size. :(
@Fabi: *laughs* :)
@Adra: Why not? It's perfectly reasonable. Think about how much you'll iss him in one week when he's gone somewhere else. Now think how much more you'd miss him if he died.
Aren't you glad he isn't dead?
@Rhydian: Cool! :)
@Maraness: *crosses fingers intensly* PLEASE LET YOU BE IN IT! :)
#ChaseForBookNine
What's happened to Niccolo? (Been a bit distant recently)
#ChaseForBook9
Adra... Explain?
#ChaseForBook9
Luce is shipping me with someone and won't tell.
Em is describing me and
I NEED TO KNOW
What movie? What are you on about Mara?
#ChaseForBook9
Oh...
#ChaseForBook9
Adra, who us Luce shipping you with?
#ChaseForBook9
*is
#ChaseForBook9
*shrugs* Just feeling depressed and kind of unable to deal with people. He would not want me to say this because he hates attention, but I can't figure out how to do this, so if he's not there, that's why.
#ChaseForBook9
@Ari: It's okay. I don't mind if he sits in a corner. :) I can't dance anyway, sooo.
We can try to cheer him up and yeah. :)
#ChaseForBookNine
Does that count as cyber bullying?
#ChaseForBook9
@Ari: oh right
#ChaseForBook9
For some reason I want to change my Taken Name. Is that weird?
#ChaseForBook9
But he's afraid of people trying to cheer him up... *doesn't apologize for Niccolò being fictional* *clings to Star because I think you actually understand my feelings about fictional characters really well*
#ChaseForBook9
[Flickers]
#ChaseForBook9
Fabi? You okay?
#ChaseForBook9
Fabi?
#ChaseForBook9
There's a kid named Noah in my school and yesterday at lunch I almost called him Niccolò... (No, they're not anything alike.)
#ChaseForBook9
Just thought I'd pop on real quick.
Congratulations to all the winners! You all had amazing entries! :D :D
hi/bye everyone who's on! *hands them all cookies*
*hands Derek cookies*
I don't know.
I'm just tired...
#ChaseForBook9
Hi/bye Raven!
#ChaseForBook9
Fabi?
Hi/bye Raven! Thanks for the cookie!
#ChaseForBook9
Hi/Bye Raven!
#ChaseForBook9
It's raining... It's beautiful out there...
#ChaseForBook9
@Ari: I'm actually honoured. *hugs* Thanks. :) :) :)
Well, will he come if we promise not to try to cheer him up? :)
#ChaseForBookNine
What? No...
That makes three.
Does anyone else want the ded?
#ChaseForBook9
Hi/bye Rae!
*nods*
*climbs onto Star's back like a child*
...Star, do you mind if I email you? I'm afraid to bother people with this... If you'd rather I didn't, that's totally fine. I just could probably use the council. :/ (I have such a hard time asking for help! Ah!)
#ChaseForBook9
I'm dying here x.x
So I was thinking about this discussion from a long time ago about role models, and so I decided to dedicate the page to all these people who have inspired me. And the other people who have inspired me, but I didn't write a speech about.
Vi Hart
Her videos are the epitome of awesomeness, 'nuff said! Also, if I don't hate math, she's probably a big reason why. She's inspired me to experiment with doodling fractals and a lot of other stuff that's actually interesting. Also, we share a love of snakes. More, though, she's a role model for me in the sense that she's so creative and quirky and people love her for it. I had a really good speech about Vi and creativity, but I sort of deleted it by accident. Oh, also I sort of took my middle name because of her.
Jillian Jensen
"Look, you and me, we're up here. The bullies that bullied us? They're at home, watching us on the TV." ~Demi Lovato to Jillian Jensen
Jillian is my favorite contestant I've seen on the American version of the X Factor. When she sings, you can hear in her voice all the pain that she's been through, and it sticks in your mind. She was bullied a lot for who she was, and yet she's managed to rise above it; that's why I admire her. And her entire audition made me cry both happy and sad tears. She's amazing.
Hayley Westenra
I guess she isn't exactly a "role model," but I'm counting her anyway. Hayley's voice is beautiful, and she has inspired me to do more music-y stuff. :-P
I should probably point out that Jillian and Hayley are near opposites. Hayley's voice is unnaturally high and smooth and clear, while Jillian's is lower-pitched, rougher and very natural. They're both perfect for who they are, and you're perfect for who you are. Never be disappointed that you aren't someone else. Yeah.
Other musical artists who have inspired me are Little Mix, Lindsey Sterling, Enya and Loreena McKennitt
Some authors who have inspired me are Shakespeare, Laura Ruby, Ingrid Law, Angie Sage, Ally Carter, Rick Riordan, Tamora Pierce and of course:
Derek Landy
Well, that goes without saying. I'd probably write considerably less if SP didn't exist. Also, I wouldn't have met all you, and actually a lot of you have inspired me, too.
So I'm gonna finish off by dedicating to you guys, since I have two more pages to ded.
((Note: These are not people I want to be exactly like. That's not what the term "role model" means to me. Actually, a big part of why these people have inspired me is the fact that they're completely and utterly them. Although they've helped shape who I am, I like to think of myself as the first Fabi and not the second someone else.))
#ChaseForBook9
@Ari: Everyone's always welcome to email me. :)
And I can always promise I'll try my best to and help them if they need me to. :)
(The key word being 'try'. Nobody go expecting miracles.)
But yeah. If anyone ever wants to email me, do. :)
#ChaseForBookNine
*raises glass* HEAR HEAR!
That was lovely, Star
Great ded Fabi!
