Happy Christmas (Tour is Over)

I thought the title of this entry was smart and funny, effectively conveying the relief at another tour being over and done with in a winning and whimsical manner. But how many of you are going to miss the John Lennon reference and just puzzle at the "Happy Christmas| part? Ah well. Too late now to go changing it.

So, another tour bites the dust. This was a fun one, lots of people turning up, lots of glares and scowls and cakes and pictures and fist-bumps and many, many moody looks into camera... All in a day's work, really. Thanks to everyone who came along — it was tiring but I had a blast.

And now I'm home, and it's time to get organised.

There's going to be some cool news coming your way over the next few weeks and months. Some of it will make you go "Cool!" and some of it will make you grin. Some of it, of course, will make you weep, as it's coming up to that time when I'll have to start plotting out Book Nine. Most of you will still be reeling from the events of LSODM, so you'll know not to trust me. For some reason, the tagline from the original Texas Chain Saw Massacre is floating through my head...

"Who will survive, and what will be left of them?"

The good news is, now that the pressure of editing and touring is off, I'll be able to get back to my regular (ahem) blogging and Twitter routine, so I should be chatting to you guys a little more often than I have been. Hopefully.

The fact is, I'm going to be incredibly busy for the next year. Want a brief rundown on what I have ahead of me?

1) Plot, write and finish Book Nine by March.

2) Work on Mystery Project 2.

3) Write 10 brand new short stories for the Skulduggery Collection out next Summer.

4) Work on Mystery Project 3.

5) Devise, plan and start writing New Book Series by September 2014.

6) Work on Mystery Project 4.


All that, and blog and tweet and play with my nieces. Oh, and my nephew.

Nephew, you say? But Golden God, you don't HAVE a nephew. I do now, gentle Minion. Born this afternoon, weighing in at over 9 pounds, Baby Skulduggery is now part of my Baby Army of Terror, and he is to be feared.

(Okay fine, my sister hasn't OFFICIALLY named him Baby Skulduggery, but come on... How could she NOT?)

I...right. I hate when people panic like I feel horrible sitting here calmly and all...I...i dont know. I can try..I..

Alastair Cruciatus said...

I mean, I can't just ask you to be perfectly ok, because that'd be like asking me not to panic- it's an emotional thing, and sometimes we just can't control those. Just please try not to let it upset you if I do. Because I will, inevitably. But just because I panic every now and then doesn't mean the world is ending. Actually, I probably spend more time than is healthy panicking, for one reason or another. Usally I wouldn't describe it as panic, though. Sometimes it's fear, sometimes frustration, other times I just get random adrenaline rushes and I start to feel really jumpy/paranoid and as a result, I seem like I'm just really hyper. But... Basically, I'm just telling you that I will panic sometimes, and I can't pretend to be fine all the time, and a lot of those times I just won't (which is different than can't), but... Just, try not to get too upset. It happens, and I'll pretty much always be fine in a bit, whether it's a few minutes or a few hours.

Yep, I'm stepping away from this conversation now.

G'bye.

#ChaseForBook9

Alastair Cruciatus said...

Hi Fab/Mantha! And Adra, if you're still here!

*clears throat* In other news, my mom has decided I need to be less of a hermit, so I'm getting the new iPhone (the one with the fingerprint scanner, because I know how the technology works XD), and my case has Tesla on it. That makes me very happy. :)

#ChaseForbook9

Alastair Cruciatus said...

Sorry, Fabi... *hugs* I'm done, actually, I just felt like I had to say that... Actually, I think I had a point to begin with, and I sort of lost it... But I'm sure it's somewhere in there, and I have nothing else to say. So.

#ChaseForBook9

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

Okay. I guess not sure what to say except okay.

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

LUCKY i never will get an iPhone

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

No need to apologize. I just really don't see the point of being here right now. [shrugs]

I'm in an odd mood today, is all. See you.

#ChaseForBook9

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

Ari this means you and I can text O.O OMFG yes!!!

Alastair Cruciatus said...

I'd be just as happy without it- my dad asks me every now and then if I want an iPhone, actually, and I just always say I'm not sure what I'd do with it, but now that I have to be not-a-hermit I need a phone that I can actually text/call on. Like, my mom is actualy requiring that I text every night. She has declared it part of my homework. XD

#ChaseForBook9

Alastair Cruciatus said...

Ok- bye then, Fabi. *hugs*

#ChaseForBook9

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

xD well when you get it I'll give you my number I am getting an iPhone when my mom gets the money because i made it clear thats what i want. I mean i actually want that so bad because im like i have a stupid evil phone o and omg Ari we can Facetime! I got an iPod therefore we add each other as conatcts via my apple ID you numeber OMG

Alastair Cruciatus said...

Also, Trip kind of made me realize something. I was scrolling through past comments reading the conversation people were having about Nafira, and he was saying how there would be a "make or break moment" and Niccolò would probably just crumble, and I thought to myself, that would actually be really likely, and then I just sort of had this realization moment... Because it's quite obvious that even though he's physically strong, mentally, he's like a game of jenga with half the pieces already missing. But then I started thinking about his emotions, and they're actually really delicate. And that kind of shocked me, because I've thought of him as strong and weak and badly broken and withdrawn and brooding and all of that... But I've never thought of him as delicate. And he actually is. I just thought that was interesting. *realizes there was no real point to this rant*

#ChaseForbook9

Noelle said...

OH GODS.


I'm finished.

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

I really wish Nafira could happen I do :/ I wish it would happen but something says Niccolò wont like me back

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

Alastair Cruciatus said...

YES THANK YOU PLEASE DO NOT SAY ANYTHING I DON'T WANT TO HEAR A SIGNLE WORD. I DON'T WANT TO KNOW WHETHER YOU OR ADRA LIVED OR DIED, OR WHAT PAGE THE DRAMATIC STUFF HAPPENED ON, OR EVEN WHETHER OR NOT THE ENDING WAS PREDICTABLE. PLEASE.

Snow said...

Ari, Zaf, Adra *nods*

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

Adra I am restricting Trip privileges no making out between the hours of dusk and 9am! *giggles* just kidding

Alastair Cruciatus said...

I know you know, Adra. I'm just super edgy about spoilers today because this guy on the Quidditch team basically spoiled the entire new episode of an awesome show that I watch, and somebody nearly spoiled an even more awesome show- and that was the whole season... So... YEah. Sorry... *hugs tightly* I meant that to be more hyper than yell-y... *hugs again*

Right *nods* if it helps to be freaked Niccolò appeared in my dream oh Ari

Tengo miedo de Alastair
No tengo miedo de Niccolò
Me enchanta Niccolò

Alastair Cruciatus said...

See, now I really feel like just pressing the home button all the time, but I also feel like never pressing it ever again, because I'll be sad that he died but also super excited because of all the things he did, and that mix of emotions gets really exhausting after a while...

#ChaseForBook9

Snow said...

Translate!! come on, what is wrong with translate???

Noelle said...

Hi Sparks-

My home screen is "Okay" in a black cloud surrounded by blue

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

*laughs* Mine is Javert and my lock screen is Saracen Rue mmm sexiness ah yes I had Derek in a dress but i fell down steps laughing so i decided against it

Alastair Cruciatus said...

Hey Sparky!

No tengo miedo de Alastair o Niccolò, pero Niccolò tiene miedo de Alastair. Pero "Le amo" es mejor que "Me encanta Niccolò", porque encanta es para cosas. :)

Death is in hospital, we found her with her wrists slit earlier this morning. The doctors say we're lucky. She should be fine in a few days.

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

...I suddenly have the feeling not to, just because you told me to.

That's more Mantha-like than Fabi-like, but people just call me Fab anyway, so I automatically respond as Fabi, most of the time, because that's who they were asking.

I should probably just dump the plot idea I had, 'cause we all know I'm going to procrastinate and panic and never actually do it.

...

I'm just a fountain of joy today, aren't I?

...

...

You know what?

I'm going to go now, and stop taking my anger out on y'all.

Yep, that sounds like a good idea.

Hey, maybe if I'm lucky, I'll even sleep.

...if Deathy comes on, tell her she's amazing, okay?

#ChaseForBook9

wait, what??

Death... Get well soon...

We all have our downsides and upsides its a flaw in you but the fact remains you're still an angel things happen to good people it does

I gtg keep breathing my angel, Rose

O m e g a 333333333333

Jophiel said...

I'm not saying sorry, I'm telling you that again.

Noelle said...

Whut.

Okay.
Here we go:
Omega 3
Foods high in nutrients (fruits and veggies and stuff/ just getting a balanced meal)
Foods high in antioxidants: Beta-carotene: Broccoli, apricots, cantaloupes, preacher, carrots, potatoes. Vitamin c: blueberries, broccoli, kiwi, grapefruit, oranges, pepper. Vitamin E: margarine, butter, nuts, oils, wheat germ...
Half-Medeterraniean diet? ((I wouldn't suggest full dieting))
Cutting most trans-fats out of your meals... More home-cooked meals that don't come from a box that you microwave or just put in a pot

Alastair Cruciatus said...

It's too cold outside
For angels to fly...


My God, Death, don't... Just... You have no freaking idea how much you matter. No. Freaking. Idea.

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

And I'm not coddling you.
Listen here: depression is from the mind, yes? It is your mind and brain acting to an outside stimulus. I'm not going to tell you you're perfect, because that is ridiculous. What does perfection mean? Tall, abnormally thin, beautiful... That's what society thinks. It's stupid. So I say they can just screw off, because society consists of about 7% of the world, and that doesn't mean that what they believe should control is.

My point is- why coddle and say you're amazing and perfect when I can tell you things you can do. Trans fats will cover up these receptors between the neuroma in your brain, which can slow down cognitive function. Omega 3s are just BAMFy and supercharged. I think people often forget about what they eat, and how that can effect them. Now, I'm not saying you'll eat these foods and magically become un-depressed, but it could even make the bit of difference.

Seriously. People today eat these awful foods. Did they honestly think that they can live healthily if they deprive their bodies and their minds of their essential needs? Good grief

Alastair Cruciatus said...

Tesla nearly died when he was young because he worked so hard he would forget to eat and sleep. That's sort of irrelevant, but I don't do the coherent sentence thing now.

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

People really don't know how important the simple things... A good night's sleep. In people who get only a few hours start to show signs of... Type 2 Diabetes, I think just after one night

Alastair Cruciatus said...

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

Again, there are things that don't require a ton of medicine... I haven't thoroughly investigated this but I will say:

A lot of this- these medical problems- didn't happen as much 2-300 years ago... There's also a lot of unnecessary drama on the TV that reached kids that that is what life is actually like. And people do what they know, right?
Also-
All those ads on TV about weight loss. It's freaking stupid. Why does someone need to be a stick? Have you guys seen models on a runway? Or even dancers? There's this world that says everyone has to be just so thin and that's beauty. Honestly, it'a unhealthy. People starve themselves for a "perfect look" and - ARGH. WHY.
I get that some people are picked on... Or they result to unsavoury methods for slimming up, but.... That causes problems that they'll pay for further along.

-_- sorry, this just pisses me off

You know you've got everybody fooled

Look here, she comes now
Bow down and stare in wonder
Oh, how we love you
No flaws when you're pretending
But now I know she
Never was and never will be
Have you no shame?
Don't you see me?
You know you've got everybody fooledl

Whithout the mask
Where will you hide?
Can't find yourself
Lost in your lie

I know the truth now
I know who you are
And I don't love you anymore
It never was and never will be
You don't know how you've betrayed me
And somehow now you're everybody's fool

*facepalm*

Okay.

I'll raise to people actually taking a nutrition class or something because you all have NO IDEA what you are putting into your system and how harmful it really is. A balanced meal isn't a huge steak with some greens and a starch. A balanced meal is a 3-5 oz steak with LOTS of greens, and a little starch.. Yeah.

American Queen is the American dream
American Queen is the American dream

She is a polish girl in America
Tall, tan, hot, blonde, called Anya
I asked her
"Why would you want to be a Hollywood wife?"
"Because I don't want to end up living in a dive on vine"
You'd do anything for a dime
You're looking for the golden light

Hollywood infected your brain
You wanted kissing in the rain
I've been living in a movie scene
Puking American dreams
I'm obsessed with the mess that's America
I'm obsessed with the mess that's America

Thank God I'm pretty
The occasional free drink I never asked for
The occasional admission to a seedy little bar
Invitation to a stranger's car
I'm blessed
With the ability to render grown men tounge-tied
Which only means that when it's dark outside
I have to run and hide, can't look behind me
Thank God I'm pretty

(PS. This has taken about a half hour to write!!!!)

Jophiel said...

ALSO, SARACEN RUE LOOKS LIKE MY TEACHER BUT NOT AS FAT!!!! HE'S A SKINNY MR HEARD!!!!!!!!

Duck said...

I heard, Death. The amount of exclamation marks you use is a bit scary. And also, if it took you half hour to write that, why did you write that it took half hour to write?

... Death. You have forced my hand. I WILL come over to your country, to force EVERY SINGLE INCH of your beauty and life through your brain, and you will LIKE IT if it has to kill me! I shall elaborate later, you silly, strange, wonderful human being you.

Jophiel said...

Mum said, "Look Dannielle! There's a knighted shark talking to you!" And I cried. I was laughing that hard!!!

I'm not beautiful, Sharky! I know i'm not!! I'm not bright!! I'm really high right now too... Heh, my wrists tingle...
But Sharky, thanks for your concern. I'm fine!!! I'm always fine!!! *Passes Sharky some tuna* Dolphin free because dolphins are rather cruel!!

Jophiel said...

AND I'M NOT WONDERFUL!!!!!!!!!! I'M TERRIBLE!!!!!!!!!

Jophiel said...

... Also, my mum would probably kill you if she saw a shark in a suit on the doorstep... My mum does not like sharks... One tried to eat me...

Sir said...

Hrm, maternal instincts can be quite fearsome... In any case, to make a long story short, you're a human being, therefore you have the right to live a long, beautiful, and healthy life. And I won't take any argument from you, Death.

Sir said...

Also, Danielle's mother, if you're reading this, you have a wonderful, exceptional daughter. Don't let her go any time soon.

Jophiel said...

Hah, if only she'd listen to a knighted shark... Thank you, Sir Reingington. She is a beautiful girl. She's knocked out at the moment... I'm very upset that she did what she did...

I hope she learns that she is loved....*sighs* msd sorry I'm in school but eh Vicki I'm an American so hah you speoke to one

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

Oh! You're Rose's mom...right. Sorry things are not registering its 9:40am....

You have a wonderful daughter who we all love. I may be across the world but still she's like the epic Australian sister I wanted :)

Alastair Cruciatus said...

She needs help. I'm at school, so I can't stay very long, but please, if you're reading this, can you get her some good quality professional help? There are some places/people that are really bad- don't bother with those. But there are good ones, too. Death is so, so, so important to all of us. I will never be ok again if I lose her like that. But she needs to be living in a better atmosphere, and she needs a kind of help that none of us here can give her. Please please make sure that she gets it... And if you can, get her out of her school. Having to spend hours every day in a place where everyone mocks you and pushes chairs into you and steals your pens and all the teachers look at you differently is doing quite the opposite of helping.

"Everyone should consider his body as a priceless gift from one whom he loves above all, a marvelous work of art, of indescribable beauty, and
mystery beyond human conception, and so delicate that a word, a breath, a look, nay, a thought may injure it."
-Nikola Tesla

Listen to Tesla, Death. Never give up the body you have. Remember, you still haven't met all of us yet. You promised you'd do that.
