Under Pressure... Moi?

Glancing back at old Blog entries, I happened to notice that on December 23rd of 2012 I had 13,320 words of LSODM written. This was a good thing to notice. It means that, with 18,504 words of Book 9 already spewed forth onto the page/screen, I am well ahead of where I was last year — and I finished LSODM in PLENTY of time, did I not?

Well, actually, no, I didn't. It was pretty much down to the wire, as they say. I couldn't afford to make ANY mistakes with LSODM, because I had no time to do anything resembling a significant rewrite. But at least I know it can be done. At least I know I can do it. Now all I have to do is hope I DO do it.

Pressure pressure pressure... It's everywhere. I don't actually mind pressure. It's a handy tool to make you sit down and write, after all. And I have no one to blame for these onrushing deadlines but me, because I'm the one who agreed to them in the first place. I'm the one who said "Hey, let's collect all the short stories, and I'll write a few more brand new ones, and we can publish in the summer before the final book!" And what a wonderful idea that was. What a magical, wonderful idea, to schedule the writing of short stories at the same time as I've scheduled the writing of a book. How clever that was.

I had wanted to include ten new stories in the collection. I STILL want to do ten — but the fact is, I might not be able to. I may only be able to do five. I want to tell a tale of the Dead Men during the war. I want to tell the tale of Billy-Ray Sanguine and what he did when he was recovering from the sword-wound that Valkyrie inflicted on him in The Faceless Ones. I want to show you how Val met Caelan for the first time. But most of all, I want to go back to Skulduggery and Valkyrie, back before the screaming and the killing and the darkness. I want to see them having fun again, before the death and the destruction and the heartache and the loss. The collection will be out mere months before the final book, after all... I want you to enter into Book 9, fully aware of how good it used to be between them.

And then I want to shatter what remains of your souls.

Sapphire Iota (S/ Cam) said...

It's weird, but I miss my song blog. I don't miss other people looking at it, so I'm not putting it back up, but recently I've found myself writing songs whenever I'm upset, or scared, or just awake all night and lonely. My computer is full of Sticky Notes with lyrics on them XD

Sapphire Iota (S/ Cam) said...

Dinner D: *hugs Snow* see you soon!

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

((Hello? [hugs people] [Wonders if I missed everyone, as is not unusual] [hopes maybe Snow is still here] Saph, you can make it a blog that only you can see and still post stuff. I have an invisible blog for that... Not songs, though. More just sort of thought-dumps))

#ChaseForBook9

Snow said...

*hugs fab* yeah i'm still here... i'm just freaked about google...

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

((Heh... You won't find me by Google searching my given name. There's someone famous who shares two names with me, and someone with the exact same name as me who lived in the 1930's))

((If you search for my most often used nickname, you'll find a page related to this book with a character with the same name as me (and a few freaky resemblances) (oh, and did I mention she dies?) and the author shares a different name with me.))

((So...yeah.))

#ChaseForBook9

Snow said...

can i just say, in "the keepers", written by a tassie author, there are pictures of the characters on the inside cover. and one of the characters, toadspit, looks so mush like a boy in my class, dylan, it cannot be a coincidence...

Snow said...

i g2g!! *huggles saph and fabi* byee!

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

((XD))

((There's a author who lives somewhere in the state, and she writes around here, too, so I can picture everything really well.))

((She mentions one of those white signs that goes up when the county wants to build something, and I KNOW WHAT THAT IS. In another of her books, the characters go to this school that I could BIKE to.))

To not make Niccolò afraid i do not ship it, fudge getting report cards

Noelle said...

I'm glad my grades are on PowerSchool. I check them everyday

Jophiel said...

I don't know what the fuck is going on. I am awaken to the sound of my little brother crying, my older sister crying and my older brother talking to mum over the phone. It's almost bloody midnight.

I think my sister's boyfriend punched her....

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

We have HAC but....i hate checking it. Oh my god this morning i had to teach my mom to go on wifi...and buy apps, i can take all her music from iPod Shuffle and put it on her iPhne?

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

Holy shit Rose...

Jophiel said...

Yeah. That's what I think... I can hear what is being said... I hate Troy. Troy can go fuck himself. No one hurts my family.

Jophiel said...

And no one well tell me what's going on, too.So I'm just sitting in bed because I won't be fucking sleeping for the rest of the night.

Jophiel said...

*will

I'm going to go pester someone until they tell me what's happened.

Cheers.

There doesn't seem to be.

The Grave of a Coward said...

So I shall grace Blogland with a live performance of an obscure song from the works of Disney.

The Grave of a Coward said...

Are we on our way to Nottingham, to Brittingham, to Buckinham
Or any hammy hamlet by the sea, no
Are we on our way to Devonshire, to Lancashire or Worcestershire
I'm not so sure
We'll have to wait and see
Oh, are we on our way to Dover
Or going merrily over
The jolly old road that goes to Plymouth ho, no

We're merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily on our way
To nowhere in particular
We're merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily on our way
Where the roads are perpendicular

We're always in a hurry
We have no time to stall
We've got to be there
We've got to be there
But where we can't recall

We're merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily on our way
And we may be going to Devonshire, to Lancashire, to Worcestershire
We're not so sure but what do we care
We're only sure we've got to be there
We're merrily on our way to nowhere at all!

Wbd. I have to do Stuff. *nods grandly*

Did I tell you people . . . ? Miss put a paragraph someone had written on the board in French (I mean, we were in our French lesson, and she put a paragraph on the board. Although the paragraph was in French, too), and it was one someone in our class had written, and I kind of looked up at it in dread, but it wasn't mine so I was like phew, and then she said "Now, tell me why this one is better" and put another one up.
Me: *looks up*
*sees the word 'Amsterdam'* Oh gosh. *hides*

AND THIS GIRL IN MY FORM WAS IN MY FRENCH CLASS AND SHE WAS ONE OF THE PEOPLE INSISTING I WAS DUCTH JUST TO IRRITATE ME SO SHE'D KNOW IT WAS MINE SO OF COURSE SHE WOULD TELL EVERYONE. D:

She's ALSO the one who had our science teacher show us how acidic her drink was, and she's also the one who has a go at me in PE and Games, and she's also the one who constantly asks the teacher about everything (like, she puts her hand up all the time, and is always pointing out things and asking questions and always asks the teacher when she's done a bit of work or wants it clarifying or wants to find out something), just in case anyone reads all my comments and remembers things . . . I always seem to talk about her here, which is because she's so . . . not loud, just . . . so noticeable all the time, because she's constantly asking things and stuff.

#ChaseForBookNine

I guess she just always . . . gets involved. *nods*

Oh, gosh. We have an STQ marking policy in our school, meaning when the teachers mark our work, they have to give us a strength, a target and a question. We have to answer the question once we get the marking back. It's a really good system, imo. Although, my German teacher, who is, as I have mentioned, CRAP (oh my gosh, our French teacher was saying we should describe the floor in our bedrooms (sounds a bit odd out of context), and someone said they couldn't see their floor coz of all of the junk on it, and my French teacher, who's Spanish, told us to say that, say that we couldn't see the floor because it was covered in crap.
Us: *laughing*), says "Let's STQ this sheet." Then she puts a strength on the board, like "I worked well as a team," and a target on the board, and a question on the board, and we all have to copy it down, then she puts the answer to the question on the board and we have to copy that down. -_-
How it's meant to work is, she's meant to LOOK at our work, MARK it, and give us individual STQs. :/

. . . Anyway, what I was GOING to say was, my English teacher gave me the target of making my handwriting neater, and he said do you want me to help you, or do you think you can do it on your own? And we decided I'd try for a few weeks and if it didn't improve he was going to help me.

*laughs*

. . . Because if the examiner can't read my writing I'll lose marks. :/
Which isn't so funny.

The thing is, though . . . my handwriting was terrible, so I gave myself beautiful new handwriting, and then nobody could read it so, after three complaints from different teachers in one week, I switched back, and NOW everyone still has a problem with my handwriting and I'm just like well what do you want me to do.

Sir said, in our little conversation - is it because you write quickly because you want to get all your ideas down? And I realise it was, yes, kind of, because I think as I write, and I think pretty fast. Well, you do think faster than you write, don't you? I think as I talk, and I think as I type - I'm doing it now, thinking what I'm going to say as I type it, hearing it in my head as I do so - and I think as I write. I think that I want to write this, and as I'm thinking it's there.

:/

Anyway. I'm going to have to do SOMETHING, because this handwriting thing is just embarrassing now. :P

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

I have a song in my damm head! Murder murder is that bad I have a song about murder

Star Inkbright said...

@Zaf: Yay! :)

. . . Whereas if I get caught on my phone in lessons, I will get it confiscated! If I get caught by some teachers on my phone in the hallway in lunchtime, I may also get it confiscated! Yaaay!

. . . Some supply teachers let us listen to music, occasionally.
And that is the nearest I've been to having my phone out in lessons all my life, apart from in science when we were looking at how much radiation our phones produced and stuff like that.
-_-

Yay for homework finishing, though. :)

Star Inkbright said...

Hunter would say that sometimes murder is good, and sometimes it's bad but it's fun anyway so whatever. :P

Maralie Lily Charm said...

I am the diamond you left in the dust
I am the future you lost in the past
Seems like I never compared
Wouldn't notice if I disappeared

You stole the love that I saved for myself
And I watched you give it to somebody else
But these scars no longer I hide
I found the light you shut inside
Couldn't love me if you tried

Am I still not good enough?
Am I still not worth that much?
I'm sorry for the way my life turned out
Sorry for the smile I'm wearing now
Guess I'm still not good enough

Does it burn
Knowing I used all the pain?
Does it hurt
Knowing you're fuel to my flame?
Don't look back
Don't need your regrets
Thank god you left my love behind
Couldn't change me if you tried

Am I still not good enough?
Am I still not worth that much?
I'm sorry for the way my life turned out
Sorry for the smile I'm wearing now
Guess I'm still not good enough

Release your curse
'Cause I know my worth
Those wounds you made are gone
You waiting nothing, yeah
Your love wore thin
And I never win
You want the best
So sorry that's clearly not me
This is all I can be

Am I still not good enough?
Am I still not worth that much?
I'm sorry for the way my life turned out
Sorry for the smile I'm wearing now
Guess I'm still not good enough

Does everyone know that they're saying "D-Day"?

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

I feel extewmely stupid

The Grave of a Coward said...

*pats Zafira's shoulder soothingly*
I would say I know how you feel, but . . .
*shrugs*
I'm sorry you're feeling unfit.

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

Nah its fine

Maralie Lily Charm said...

Adra - D-Day?
What do you mean by "they're" saying?
It's 1DDay though, yeah :P
I think 1Day would be a better name tbh but oh well haha

Noelle said...

I mean, the fandom...


D-Day. The day the Americans landed in Normandy, France during the second World War. A shit ton of people died

Maralie Lily Charm said...

Well, I know what D-Day is... But we're not really calling it that, if that's what you're saying. :P

And the actual 1DHQ came up with the name 1DDay anyways, so *shrugs*

Sorry, distantish because homework:/

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

Yeah that is a tad unerving

Noelle said...

...

Yeah, I think they could have thought that one through a bit more....

Every time I hear that, I think of D-Day.

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

My niece is so screwed....she is in kindergarten right well she keeps talking so they plan next time she misbehaves send her to the office and give her a scare of her life

Noelle said...

I don't think it's be the scare of her life, because she'll have forgotten it in a few years

Star Inkbright said...

HELLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

My card is taking so longgggggggg ohmygosh but it looks AMAZING. Best card I've made so far, I think. :)

Hey, guess what my brother said: If money doesn't go on trees, why do banks have branches?

IT'S AMAZING. :)

#ChaseForBookNine

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

Yeah but just kinda scare her to think if she misbehaves this could happen, they're gonna call my sister in and all because Taylor knows my sister will flip some shit if she gets called, to the school. Now my sister knows it'll happen but you know it'll frighten her enough to know that she did wrong as she seems to not get it

Star Inkbright said...

GUYS.

I HAVE TWELVE PLAYLISTS.

IT'S SO MANYYYYYY. :)

I'm happy.

#ChaseForBookNine

Noelle said...

Hi Star! *cuddles*

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

Sorry thinking anyhow!

I have Les Miserables on my phone

Star Inkbright said...

Hi Adra! :) *attacklehugs*

I'm going to try and write now! I've been stuck for a bit, but today in school we had to do some descriptive writing (we've been doing that recently. We're doing descriptive and then narrative, 7.5% of the GCSE each. I'm really confident about it because I can write and I know I can write . .. but this is all besides the point.), and it went really well . . . like normally in school you just kind of force yourself to write, but today I got really into it and it was just that kind of writing when it's so fun, you know? So I'm hoping my writing mood has stuck with me. *nods*

Noelle said...

Good luck Star *salutes*

The Grave of a Coward said...

(I'm sorry, but I'm going to have to egress shortly. I have a court-appointed sword fight with a television repairman that I need to attend.)

Noelle said...

*noddles* okay Anni

Maralie Lily Charm said...

DID SOMEONE SAY SALUTE

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

I am tempted to write but I know not whay to write

I sounded like Niccolò...

Star Inkbright said...

@Zaf: Write about whatever you want. :)

Write about roller glue. *nods*

#ChaseForBookNine

The Grave of a Coward said...

I would advise writing about clear plastic binder sheeting.

Noelle said...

Those things are the antichrist

Star Inkbright said...

WRITE ABOUT FELT TIPS!

I used to play with gel pens, like give them all personalities and families depending on their colour . . . I also used to play Snakes and Ladders on my own, with all the counters, four of them there were, and give them all personalities depending on the colour and make them compete against each other in getting to the top . . .
Fun times.
*gets the urge to play Ludo on my own*

The Grave of a Coward said...

I've got to go flollop off into the night now . . .

Star Inkbright said...

I can't write about her when she's asleep.

Damn, characters are annoying. XD

The Grave of a Coward said...

I can easily proofread anything you have to offer . . .

Maralie Lily Charm said...

Guess I'm still not good enough...

Noelle said...

Me: mom there's a shit ton of police outside the neighbor's house...

Mom: Lock the doors. I'll make sure the basement is locked. If I scream, go get the police.

Me: *grabs knife and is freaking out*

Legit

Maralie Lily Charm said...

Release your curse
'Cause I know my worth
Those wounds you made are gone
You waiting nothing, yeah
Your love wore thin
And I never win
You want the best
So sorry that's clearly not me
This is all I can be

Am I still not good enough?
Am I still not worth that much?
I'm sorry for the way my life turned out
Sorry for the smile I'm wearing now
Guess I'm still not good enough


This song explains perfectly how I feel

I love when a song does that

The Grave of a Coward said...

Speaking of life, I must leave now, in an effort to preserve my own. I have the strangest feeling that an aeroplane turbine is about to plunge through the ceiling. Excuse me . . .

Noelle said...
