Oooh Shiny...

Look what arrived a few days ago...


Ohhh, all those lovely Doctor Who stories, all in one place! And look what ELSE arrived in the same box...


Toys! Wonderful, wonderful TOYS!

I was indeed  a happy writer.

So what else have I been up to lately? Well, I've been writing, amazingly enough. I have taken two weeks off Book Nine to focus on coming up with new stories for Armageddon-Outta-Here (haw!) which'll be out next summer.

As a sample of what the new stories will feature, we're talking the Dead Men in the Wild West, the story of how Valkyrie met Caelan, a Billy-Ray Sanguine solo adventure, and Skulduggery Pleasant and Gordon Edgley at a horror-themed masquerade ball, set 25 years ago.

Time is tight, deadlines are onrushing, but I'm having FUN, so none of it seems quite like work. And hopefully it never will.

I'm Jubilance Glee / Occasional Haiku-er / And a dinosaur said...

Ok. I'm not really here, but I NEED YOUR GUYS'S OPINION ON SOMETHING THAT'S REALLY RANDOM AND UNRELATED AND KINDA STUPID BUT IT'S BEEN BUGGING ME SO YEAH.

Ok. So the other day during lunch, Seph and I were having a discussion/argument/whatever about the whole Time Turner thing in Harry Potter and why they didn't just use it to go back in time and kill Voldemort before he rose to power. I was saying how the time turner only went back one hour every turn and going back that long would mean you'd have to turn it like a billion times. Then I said how I read on Pottermore that the longest you can travel back without causing serious permanent damage to the future is 5 hours and that the Ministry has a bunch of laws on the usage of time turners and stuff but then she said that that was just JK Rowling making things up so that people would be happy and stop worrying about it and that killing Voldemort would definitely be an exception to the laws because he's Voldemort and he killed a bunch of people and going back would mean saving them. But then I said that if they killed Voldemort then there would be a ton of serious changes to the future. Then she said that that's the whole point and then she called me an idiot (but that's ok because she says that kind of stuff to me all the time) so the argument kinda ended there (because when you argue back after she calls you a name then it gets intense and I decided it wasn't worth it) even though I was going to tell her that even though some people wouldn't've died, there would still be some people who wound't've been born because the terror Voldemort caused drove people together and some of them eventually got married and had kids and stuff. I had a bunch more stuff that I could've said to prove my point but that's beside the point so... ANYWAYS..!

yeah
That's it...
So back to my ORIGINAL point...
I was wondering if YOU guys agreed with me about this because it's been bugging me so... yeah
heh
ok :P

Edward Fletcher said...

I agree, and with a quote 'you cant change the past without affecting the future'

Lucky Derek! How did you like the 50th Anniversary? :D

Mary Contrary said...

*noms cookie happily* Thanks, Tempest! :) I'm good, thanks! How're you?

@Luce: Fabi and Mara and also I think Star like Little Mix, and Fabi and Mara and also definitely Star are perfect. So it makes sense that Little Mix are also perfect, I suppose. :)
Which isn't a reason as to why they're so perfect, themselves, but it kind of acts as proof/supporting evidence, I suppose? :)

Maralie Lily Charm said...

REBECCA GOT A ONE DIRECTION ADVENT CALENDAR I'M CRYING SO HARD LMAO

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

@Glee yeah i agree because 1 all that turning would take ages... and also it would have screw up the modern age. I mean Harry's Parents would be alive which would change his upbringing. He could have ended up being a jerk!

Duck said...

I have to agree with you there, Jubi.

In the YouTube video 'How Harry Potter should have ended', they do exactly that and it takes a fee million turns.

I recommend that video to everyone.

NOM Ominous said...

Wow. You are good arguers.

Mary Contrary said...

Awesome dedication, MaraMaraMara. *hugs* C:

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

I can't watch it right now, Thrust, but I'll check it out later, Kay? *hugs*

Jubi- if one were to go back in time to kill Voldemort, not only would history be altered drastically, but who is to say that some other crazy bad guy wouldn't rise to power? It would be an alternate timeline, and the possibilities are endless. Maybe it was a set point in time? She doesn't know that. No one does.

So yeah

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

@Taiarawr I'm fine *Munches on cookie* Wish Derek would come on though...

Edward Fletcher said...

Sir. *Bows*

I'm Jubilance Glee / Occasional Haiku-er / And a dinosaur said...

ok anyway

HAII!!

Mary Contrary said...

JUBI *hugs*

I think I agree more with you, Jubi.
I get where your friend comes from, but I think that the two different possibilities are different, and it's hard to say what would have changed, kind of? BEcause that series of events becoming different could have led to something equally awful, anyway, and how would you know? There are so many variables, and things might affect other things in ways that you wouldn't expect, like somehow Voldemort being finished earlier/differentlllly could have led to an uprising, or a new Voldemort-like character arising, following in the wake of those events, or whatever. It's an endless choice of possibilities.
And also sometimes people just don't think of things, and maybe the Harry&co just didn't THINK of that at the time because they were too busy dealing with other things?
And ALSO, writers have to set limitations? As Derek once said, why didn't somebody just take out a gun and take Voldemort out there while he and Harry were doing the spells-duel thing?
So yeah. I think that concludes my response. :P

I agree, Luci!!

Oh wbd for a few

Luciana said...

HEEEEEEEELLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Star Inkbright said...

@Mushroom: I think it mostly does, but it greatly depends on how they're used. :)

'Hi' is more commonly used nowadays, however, so people tend to use 'hello' when they want special emphasis, and cheerfulness is something often emphasised. :)

#ChaseForBookNine

I'm Jubilance Glee / Occasional Haiku-er / And a dinosaur said...

LUCI!!!!!! *Supermegatacklehugsofdoom*


HELLO!

Mary Contrary said...

*squees at Esquibeth because CATS*

@Luce: *tilts head* I think they're both cheerful in their own ways? 'Hi' is maybe a little more intimate and friendly, and 'Hello' is more... kind of... it has a bounce in it, and so it has a bouncy kind of cheerful, maybe?

#ChaseForBook9

I'm Jubilance Glee / Occasional Haiku-er / And a dinosaur said...

'Hai' is BY FAR the most bestest greeting

Speaking of the sky,

Do you(anybody) ever just look up while you're walking and your eyes just kind of take in the vast expanse above and around you, and the HUGEness of it all is just suddenly so apparent, and for a moment at most there's this realization of just how un-understandably big even the little planet that we call home is, tracing the edge of the sky above you. ANd then that moment's gone, and you're walking again, but kind of feeling like you've both grown and shrunk and there's a kind of clarity... idk.
Maybe it's just me. idk. It just came to mind, suddenly.

@Silente: Well, not really another dimension. My story's just set in the future, but they obviously don't live on this layer of reality, otherwise I'd be able to meet them (like, in real life), so they're somewhere . . . :)

So, in the roleplay it's not another dimension, but in real life, it is. *nods* And either way they're from the future.

@Taia: I have moments like that. :)
Do you ever get the feeling where . . . it's hard to explain. You sort of look outside yourself, and you're just another person who's going to die, and you look at yourself as an outsider sort of and then you think "okay that's freaky let's return to real life now", but it IS real life, and you're sort of trapped because it's real and you can't sort of just go back to reality because it is reality . . .
It's not really THINKING that, it's FEELING it, and it used to freak me out immensely when I was younger. Nowadays, it just really freaks me out. It's scary . . .

@Star: :)
I think... I think I know what you mean but for me... I think the idea that I'm just one of 7 billion people on a planet who's going to die is more kind of comforting than it is scary. I don't really know how to put why, though. I don't know, it's a hard thing to place, but I just find that idea of being another human being on planet Earth, in a vast expanse of nothing and everything all at once and for a however big/small(depends on perspective?) space of time, I think I feel more okay with that, because it kind of makes existence more real and believable to me, somehow.
So I don't really know if that answers your question or not, but, it's a thing. :)

Congratulations, you got 31 kills in a match. That's in the top 30% of scores ever for this game.

Congratulations, you've reached 550 kills confirmed. That's in the top 6% of scores.

Never change, okay?



I don't even own the game...

Noelle said...

Well... People just arrived... I said hello to everyone else too?

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

*Starts shaking* Be right back!!! *Runs out of room*

Mary Contrary said...

@Star&Adra: What about the people doing LESS than those merely arriving? D:

:P

@Taia: That's a good thought to have. :)

It's also interesting . . . *ponders*

I think I like thinking that, you know, I am real. I constantly analyse myself, and . . . I think I just like to have everything making sense in my head (or, like, having theories about it) and having it all straight, and I think I like things to be placeful, and if I am not in my place I freak out.
I think. :)
You see, I'm analysing this and sorting it out and placing it now . . .

@Tia: That sounds a little bit odd, to me. :/
But "Never change, okay?" seems like a nice message to send out, in any case. :)

Star Inkbright said...

@Taia: They didn't arrive, and they therefore don't warrant a greeting. :P

@Adra: You said hello to everyone who was just arriving. Merely arriving. Arriving and doing nothing more.
What about those who did more than just arrive? WHat about those who arrived whilst respiring? :O

Adra, did Trip leave only he hasnt been here since I got back?

[Nods] Esquibeth does that. She prefers bouncing to freezing, though. :-)

I so want to read a story about Skulduggery's wife and daughter. They played such an important role in his life/death but we don't know anything about them! Yet somehow they're my favourite characters...

Am back sorry about that guys

Edward Fletcher said...

Hello Silente

Star Inkbright said...

@Lantern: My brother: *comes into my room: Wow, look at that cat!

ESQUIBETH IS AMAZING. :)

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

Hey Fabi do you want to hold Flame? He keeps squirming

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

Hey, Bembleina! I think we're not meant to know more about them. Just that they died. The rest we're meant to figure out from the person Skulduggery is today.

Also, I am merely leaving. What do I get?

Star Inkbright said...

@Ed: He comes on every now and then. :) He's not as regular as he used to be, but much more regular than a lot of Bloglandians I know.


#ChaseForBookNine

Noelle said...

No he didn't, Ed. He's just busy- but he has been on still.

Star... I've been saying hello to people for a while..? For about a hour and forty now..

I'm really confused- are you mad at me?

Jai (Silente Tempest - St Of Sinners) said...

@Edward hey since your the king of the Penguins can I hold a baby Penguin???

Edward Fletcher said...

Ok, thanks

Star Inkbright said...

@Adra: No. I'm using word play. Sorry. :( *hugs* You're awesome. :)

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

I can try. Not sure how he'll get along with the kitty, though.

[Gestures to Esquibeth, who is circling over my head]

@Star :-)

Star Inkbright said...

DUCK CTHULHU!

(Um, my brother's watching me type. :))

Mary Contrary said...

*nods* I know what you mean, Star.
I like to have things in my head, and they go through and through and through, and though they never really stop meaning it's so hard to put words to them because it's hard to catch them, I like that they're there, and they have all these links and wways in which they kind of fit, but also a lot of space to explore and develop, and sometimes something makes one of them do something, and it becomes being used and developing and making more links and it's kind of analysing and defining and building and understanding and placing, and I like that, too. :)

Star Inkbright said...

@Lantern: :)

Ahaha, my brother's bobbing his head along to the bouncing. :)

@Adra: Apparently you're the 'Empress Lady thingy'. XD

Noelle said...

O...Kay... Because I was just about to start crying. I thought you were mad at me


DAMMIT ITS HAPPENING

@Taia: I think that sort of made sense and that was sort of what I meant, but not quite because I didn't really know what I meant. XD

#ChaseForBookNine

Star Inkbright said...

@Adra: :( :( :( Sorry . . .

#ChaseForBookNine

Mary Contrary said...

@Star, on Esquibeth: *laughs* Awesome! x3
@Star, on less-than-arriving: I guess so. :P
