Mystery Project One

A few weeks ago, I outlined my writing schedule for the next year or so. Included in this outline were Mystery Project numbers two, three and four. I never mentioned Mystery Project One, because that had already been completed. Today, I am finally allowed to talk about it...

This year is the fiftieth anniversary of Doctor Who. To celebrate, Puffin Books asked eleven different authors to take a Doctor and write a story. When I was asked, I said I'd only do it if I could write for the tenth or eleventh incarnation. Puffin gave me Ten. I was a happy bunny.

It was such a joy to write this character. As you all know, I've been a fan of the show since I was a kid, and David Tennant holds joint top-spot with Matt Smith as my favourite Doctor. In my opinion, it was Tennant's era when the Doctor's love of dialogue really came out— that quick-fire patter that he does so well — and it was an absolute pleasure to channel that.

The Mystery of the Haunted Cottage will be released as an e-book on October 23rd (my birthday! Skulduggery's deathday!) and then it, along with the other stories, will be collected into a PHYSICAL book which will be out near the end of November.

There will be a video released in a week or two where I talk more about it, but in the meantime, here's a link to a snippet (which explains where the somewhat old-fashioned title comes from...)

☂I dedicate to fear.☂

☂Fear is something really useful and something we can't live without, but at the same time it can be something that tears us apart and that kills us.☂

☂The important thing is learning how to manage your fear, because at the end of the day, it's there to help you. It may be a stupid troublemaker half the time, but it truly loves you.☂

☂Sometimes our fears hold us back from doing the right thing or from doing something we love for no reason, and that's not good. But fear doesn't know that. So you have to discipline it. Tell it you don't want it sometimes. Star, if you're reading this, thank you. I dedicate this page to you as well.☂

☂But fear, like I said, can be amazing. It can motivate people to do incredible things. A world without fear is a world without excitement, a world without joy, a world without love, a world where we can never truly have accomplished anything.☂

☂And sometimes, fear can consume you. And it can be difficult to overcome. But it's always worth it.☂

☂If you ever feel overwhelmed by fear, remember this: fear is your tool. You have control over your emotions. You can change your habits. And never fear the fear. Challenge it. Tell it that you dare it to hold you back, dare it to make you scared. Make your fear as bad as it possibly can be and THEN it will decline. Go all out. Show it who the fuck is boss.☂

☂You are.☂

☂I also dedicate this page to Mycroft Holmes, his new wife, and his umbrella.☂

☂And to all of you who've ever helped me, whether you know it or not, including Deathy for cheering me up and for making me want to be a regular in the first place back in December, Ari for letting me talk to her that day when I was worrying about my violin, Adra for telling me (and showing me!) to just roll with it because things turn out well in the end, Star for letting me rant a little about my panic attacks, Fabi for just listening to my VARIOUS VARIOUS RANTS and for being an amazing Blogsister, Mith for being the best Blogwife a Mycroft could ever ask for and for making me feel less alone, and other people who I'm forgetting because I'm a little scatterbrained.☂

☂LOVE YOU GUYS.☂

☂And Zaf, now you can do the other half of the ded!☂

*hugs Ember* :)

Amazing ded also, btw. :)

GUYSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSs.

Today.

There was this display on the wall of the English classroom, by Year Seven and Year Nine (why not ussssssssssssssss it looks fun), about people's favourite books. They had to, like, make an A4 poster each with pictures and writing. Idk, I didn't do it.
And one of them.
I nearly screamed, btw.
One of them.
One of them was.
Okay, you can see where this is going.
One of them was . . .
JUST GET ON WITH IT.
One of them was SP!!!!! :) I NEARLY SCREAMED OKAY. BUT I WAS ON A TABLE WITH PEOPLE I DIDN'T KNOW, TWO OF WHICH I ALREADY DISLIKE AFTER ONE LESSON (the girl asked is realise was spelt realise or realize, I told her that it was realise in England and realize in America, the boy said that Americans were stupid, I argued that lots weren't, and that some were, but some English people were, and they just argued back by repeatedly saying they were stupid, and also fat, because they found it amusing, and I wenmt into full arguing mode, which means I was speaking really loudly, because when I'm protesting something my voice just gets louder and louder and they're all SHUT UP HOLLY so the argument ended around about the time they were all telling me to quieten down and all the girls on the next table (they're bitches) were giggling and yeah . . . I've forgotten where I was going). BUT ANYWAY. IT WAS SP. AND I NEARLY SCREAMED. AND I WAS SO HAPPY BEACUSE SOMEONE IN THE SCHOOL LOVES THEM ENOUGH FOR THEM TO SAY THEY'RE HIS/HER FAVOURITE BOOKS!!!!!!! :)
At some point I need to get close enough to the diusplay to read it.

And the second awesome thing that happened was this:
Well, I was sitting in Art, listening to the teacher, who was talking us, and this sixth former walked in to get something from the cupboard, and when you're me and something walks in, you immediately look at them to see what clothes they're wearing in case it's merchandise, and I didn't see much because by the time I'd looked over she was turning a corner, but I saw this red S and the T-shirt she was wearing was black so I was like POSSIBILITY so I stared at her back as she walked to the cupboard, completely ignoring the teacher here, waiting for her to turn around, because when your life is as sad as mine that's just what you do, and then . . . AND THEN SHE TUIRNED AROUND AND SHE WAS WEARING AN AVENGED SEVENFOLD T-SHIRT AND I WAS SO HAPPY!!!!!!!!!!!! :)
That's the first Avenged Sevenfold merchandise I've ever seen. :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :)

Is that a 'Yes I'm here' (sarcastic) or 'Wbd'?

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

Knowing me, it's more likely to have a deep poetic meaning that no one outside my head can begin to fathom, but sarcasm works just as well.

The fact is, I will be distant.

I meanwhile am trying to think of weapon systems for a Sci-Fi story that I'm writing. Have decided on 3 so far, AND I've developed a type of energy that the weapon will use. They're all rather complex so I MIGHT not explain all them xD

Unless any of you have a rather detailed knowledge sub-atomic particles.

Dragona Pine said...

By 'writing' I mean I'm currently trying to design the world in a lot of detail. I decided to start with the weapons. Once you have the weapons, you have to think of the things behind them.

And that led me to create a form of energy that like advanced the technology of the human race.

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

[Shrugs] I can't claim to be an expert in that field.

Hi Mycroft Holmes/September Silver. Before I say anything else I must ask, which do I call you?

Emerald Melody said...

S'up sexy peeps!

Hi... I'm here but also decorating the Minecraft for Halloween so don't be alarmed if I'm in and out.

Unknown said...

And what gave you the impression that I was a woman?!

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

While I am Mycroft Holmes, which means I am talking without umbrellas at the beginning and end of my sentences, you may call me anything that makes a vague amount of sense. Mycroft works fine, as does Mr. Holmes. "Mikey" is banned.

☂Hey! You can call me Ember :D SeptEMBER, you know? And I'm a magical doctor, reporter for the BSB, writer of fanfics, violin player, and, most importantly, a follower of Mycroft Holmes/general Mycroft Holmes enthusiast.☂

Dragona Pine said...

Sykamere, don't worry. Everyone thinks I'm a woman when they first meet me. I have no idea why.

Maralie Lily Charm said...

SORRY FABS MY FRIEND FACETIMED ME D:

She loves Taylor Swift and hates 1D (/:) and I'm the exact opposite. She ships Haylor and I don't. We're weird :P

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

☂Meh. Dunno. SKY is normally a nickname for a girl... in MY experience...☂

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

☂Because your name is DragonA!☂

☂Anyway, I'm really sorry. This is a terrible way to make a first impression.☂

☂☂sighs☂☂

Unknown said...

Eh, I suppose I should have expected it. It's not the first time it's happened.
Hi Dragona.:)

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

MR. Dark. My God. You are all so confusing. Why can't all of you have perfectly straightforward names?

Or rather, why can't I have a perfectly straightforward name? Where on Earth did the name Mycroft come from?

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

Em Alexis wants Lorcan if you can! And I'll go on Minecraft today probably after the game though...

By the way, my name starts with SYK, not SKY.

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

☂HEY MARAAAAAA☂

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

☂Mara, I was going to ask you, could you put Anni on the ARCK list?☂

Dragona Pine said...

Sykamere, is there a shortened version of your name which doesn't mean 'mother' in another language or doesn't mean a body of water (mere, btw, if you didn't know)?

Maybe Syk. But Syk sounds like Psych which makes me think Psycho.

Unknown said...

Hello Grand mage. You were in LSODM as well...
@Mycroft: Dammit!

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

Yes I was Sykamere. And I am actually American. *laughs* Ah LSODM....poor Nikki reading that. Also one of my friends was too.

Unknown said...

Hmmm...You could just call me Syk or by my last name.

Dragona Pine said...

Oh! I forgot my more formal greeting.


Hello Sykamere, I'm Dragona Pine. I write stories based on a video game series, SP (but not so much atm) and any other thing that takes my fancy. (Kind of a big gamer, btw). And that's well... it. I'm not a very interesting person.

Though the first 50 copies are the fuck up editions cause there is so many layout and cover mistakes lol but it's all cool cause everything will be fixed by the time they are on general sale :)

I suppose I should tell you a little bit about myself too.
*Ahem* I am a gamer that likes to read books and play chess (I'm weird like that). I watch movies, but usually new ones in cinema because I don't watch much TV. I do watch Bleach and Death Note and I am 12 years old and love chillies.

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

☂I used to play chess, too... but then I got really bad and stopped.☂

☂Can I call you Kam?☂

You're a young one :) I'm 15 going on 16 in January

Omg this time last year Derek fired me from Grand Mage xD

Emerald Melody said...

DUDE I LOVE BLEACH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Only on season 7 though cause I didn't even know about the rest past season 3 and I've been busy.

Well you can pre-order the book through an email addy, it will all be put on the website.

My birthday is November the 9th.

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

☂I used to seriously hate pears, but now I like them.☂

☂Do you play Left 4 Dead, Kam?☂

Dragona Pine said...

I play Assassin's Creed too. ^^

PS3, Xbox or PC?

Also, if you want a good game series - buy Mass Effect. It's my favourite. ^^ There are 3 in the series, Sci-Fi and stuff. But it's a universe done in so much detail. You can choose how the character looks and stuff but the most important thing is you choose HOW they act. And the choices you make throughout the games influence the endings, but you can also upload your characters between the games. So if you play Mass Effect 1, you can continue your character to Mass Effect 2. And then from Mass Effect 2 to Mass Effect 3. It's a rather good system.

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

☂Hey, that's about two weeks before my Blogversary!☂

☂I am an Engliminion, an Auzzieminion, an Austriaminion, and a Singaporeminion.☂

Get away Zaf or else I'll ban you from Minecraft.

How do you do Kam *tips hat*

I do not play left 4 dead, as I said I don't have an xbox or ps3. I do, however, have a wii u.

I'm fine thanks. How are you?

☂My cousin found a way to play L4D2 on his computer...☂

☂I HAVE A WII :D☂

☂What Wii games do you have?☂

NOW I have to go. Bye!

It still kills me that you like in Austria. I'm insanely jealous...

Anyway

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

My birthday is seeeeeeeeecret. I'm just going to say I'm fifteen for the rest of my time here, and after a while, none of you will believe me anymore, but oh well, I like being fifteen. I like the number. And it'd be really nice to not have to get any older and start worrying about colleges and stuff. So For fictional purposes, I can pretend! Yay!

And I don't actually know my star sign, so no. I will say that I have the same birthday as a really awesome fictional character, but, um, that's all. No more hints. :-P

I'll worry about that when I'm eighty, Ember.

Adra, would you mind telling us how you intend on living forever.

Noelle said...

*takes a step towards Ember*

Where's Mycroft? I feel like hitting someone

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

[Makes a purple-carrot-Mycroft and offers it for Adra to hit]

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

Ah, I'm afraid I can't go into that. It involves telomeres... And things
But honestly- what's the point of immortality is you weren't the only one?

Noelle said...

No!

That's not good enough!
*sticks her tongue out at the carrot*

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

☂☂calls Mycroft☂☂

"☂dr☂ w☂nts to spe☂k to youuuu!"

"NO. I refuse. I am in the middle of the Elizabethan era with my wife and my childish little brother and I am buying nice suits and I absolutely do not want Lady Adra to come and POKE ME, FOR HEAVEN'S SAKE, AND IF SHE TRIES SO HELP ME I WILL FIND THAT TIME MACHINE AND SHOVE IT UP--"

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

I'm waiting to go to 1400

Noelle said...

*grabs a poker and swings it around in her hand once* I'll find a TARDIS. Or I could convince Trip to take me.
In any case,
*pokes Mycroft*

Unknown said...

I don't know why Derek doesn't tour America, he clearly has dedicated minions there. Fabienne I have deduced that Derek is far too lazy to visit country's so far from Ireland.
*Looks up at the sky* You hear me Derek! I'm challenging you!

Noelle said...

He went to Australia

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

*calls Ember*

"I would like to inform Lady Adra that what she is doing is impossible."

*holds Mithria in front of him like a human shield just in case*

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

☂Don't you godmod, Adra XD☂

Maralie Lily Charm said...

I'm shaking... My hand is trembling and I can't stand up because I'm too weak.

I'm actually quite scared now...

#ChaseForBook9

Unknown said...

Well now he's just being mean. If I ever go to a signing I am going to hit him. Very hard. In the face.

Noelle said...

**pokes through a portal, catching Mycroft in his back*

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

*shakes head still sitting in tree*

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

☂Mara, go find somebody. A real person Call out. Now.☂

Noelle said...

Mars?

And his editors or publishers whathaveyou won't let him come here

Unknown said...

Hi Maralie, you should probably go to the doctors cuz that's not normal...
Just saying.

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

☂And if it randomly stops, just tell the person you wanted to talk to them.☂

☂What you don't want is to suddenly have something bad happen to you that nobody knows about.☂

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

*punches Adra right in the nose*

*sends her back in time*

*dons a suit of armour*

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

Noelle said...

It could just be... Hmm, eat something small, drink some water, or sugar. It could be low blood sugar
Just saying

Noelle said...

*holds her nose* OW
*runs back and tackles him, kicking his across the ground* THAT WAS MY NOSE

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

☂I SENT YOU BACK IN TIME, ADRA.☂

Unknown said...

Also I should probably let everyone know, I like setting things on fire.
*Sets Adra on fire*
Let's see if you really are immortal MUAHAHAHA.

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

☂I dedicate to Fabi's video deds because, like I said, they're lovely.☂

☂I also dedicate to anyone who liked my previous ded.☂

☂I DED TO PERSONAL SPACE COUGH COUGH I AM DEFINITELY NOT TALKING TO ANYBODY IN PARTICULAR COUGH COUGH COUGH☂

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

*smiles*

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

☂How the hell do you draw a Venn Diagram in Microsoft Word?☂

Noelle said...

*casually shrugs off her coat* I'm a doctor, Sky. Good luck with that.

And I ccame back.

((Oh and if you really honestly don't want me interacting with Mycroft, I won't- I just always found it fun, the banter and occasional violence))

Unknown said...

Maralie You should have some chocolate or something. I felt like that once and almost passed out immediately afterwards. Chocolate helps :) So do chillies.

Noelle said...

((Wait was that to me?

Oh.

Sorry, then...))

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

☂(I do want you to! Poking just drives me/him insane XD)☂

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

☂Then I realised I was stuck on slide 1 because I DIDN'T CLICK "NEXT"☂

☂☂facepalm☂☂

Noelle said...

Omfg.

*hits Mycroft*

Unknown said...

Don't worry September, it happens to the smartest of us.

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

*sighs*

*is wearing a suit of armour*

☂No, but seriously Adra, what would you think about being our Moriarty?☂

☂That was Mith's and my original plan for this honeymoon.☂

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

☂Thanks, Kam.☂

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

Please try not to injure your hand on my nice suit of armour.

It would take a while for me to polish the oil from your hand off.

Unknown said...

Or the blood.

Noelle said...

*holds up her crowbar* No problem.

((I'm not sure how you mean?))

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

My thoughts exactly, Mr. Dark.

Unknown said...

I'm not really on anyone's side here so...
*Gives adra electric sword*
This should help.

Unknown said...

Sorry Mycroft.
