Right, well, SOMEBODY at Harper Collins messed up, and I am NOT a happy writer. But, for those of you who may have heard, yes, it is true, you are getting a Tanith Low novella coming you way early in 2013 so, um...
SURPRISE!
Grrrrr.
And before you get carried away with what it might be about or who might be in it, the synopsis provided was an early one, before I'd actually started the damn thing. Biggest change? Ghastly ain't in it. Probably.
So what IS it about, you ask?
It's about God-Killer weapons. Four of them, scattered around the world. Four weapons that could hurt- even kill- Darquesse whenever she arrives. Tanith, being thoroughly devoted to dear Darquesse, does not want these weapons falling into enemy hands. So she recruits a gang of misfits and villains and off she goes to snatch them before the good guys come calling.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to stomp away and find someone to beat up...
EDIT
Also, to all my east coast Ameriminions, you better stay safe during this storm and all these power outages. That is an ORDER.

«Oldest ‹Older 1401 – 1600 of 4852 Newer› Newest»It's Shawn because the world is insane
I just checked and I guess it IS Shawn...
THAT'S A DUMB WAY TO SAY THAT NAME! Bah! It's spelled funny!
*rants*
I collect! I do! *points to profile picture*
Val, my sister is 7, so I can't make her read them yet, and I would probably be really mean and make her go find her own copies, becaus she is not going anywhere NEAR mine.
I was reading a book and I'm talking about it, and I say Sean, and my mom starts talking about how it's pronounced Shawn. I'm standing there going "but Dean isn't pronounced DAWN"
My sister threatened to snap peoples' wrists if they tried to touch my book.
She's a good guardian of them. *nods*
Val, I know that. *glares at profile picture*
I have decided that the only reason I want there to be a movie is so we can get MERCHANDISE.
I want there to be a movie, but only if it's EXACTLY like the book.
*cough and I really want to be Valkyrie cough*
I need someone to defend my books. I lent the first SP to my friend, she loses it, and I find it AT SCHOOL. TWO YEARS LATER
Sevpie, the only reason I know that is because I know someone named Sean, and I went YEARS thinking it was spelled Shawn. >.<
YES I WANT THE MOVIE. there is nothing definite about when it comes out and I'm annoyed
Do you guys watch Dr. Who or Sherlock?
DOCTOR WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
I'm on the 4th season right now
Val, I want to be Tanith or Crystal.
Sevpie, DO NOT SAY THAT! I lent Anerican Edition of Book 1 to someone, and he lost it, so I don't even want to THINK about not having it for 2 years
I like Donna and Rose. Martha annoys me. *covers face with arms* DON'T JUDGE ME!
The newest Doctor is my favourite, but David Tennant's a close second :D
No, I made her buy me another. The book was 4 cents. Shipping was 4$
Doctor Who!!!!!!!!
Sepia, I LOVE Doctor Who. What I'm doing is watching all of the 11th Doctor, and then going back and watching seasons 1-4.
I wear a fez now. Fezzes are cool.
*Sevpie damn spellcheck
I'm on this one where there are these cars that are wacky, and Martha returned, and this lady's driving into the lake and her car's going "This is your final destination" and I'm trying not to laugh hysterically
Amy is my favourite companion.
But I do like Jenna Louise-Coleman.
In Asylum of the Daleks my family were just like, "Woah... She looks like you... Weird...'
I wasn't watching Dr. Who yet when I read KOTW so I did not understand the fez reference
My friend dressed as the Doctor for Halloween and she said people kept shouting "DOCTOR!" at her XD
I saw the fez reference and spazzed out.
which doctor?
11th Doctor.
Matt Smith right?
YES. HE IS AMAZING :D
But I can't help but notice that his eyebrows seem to have disappeared.
Kes, you probably already read the article but check your email.
THAT SCENE IN THE SIXTH HARRY POTTER MOVIE WHERE THE ZOMBIES ARE COMING OUT OF THE LAKE? THESE THINGIES ARE COMING OUT OF GOO AND I'M HAVING FLASHBACKS
My friend and my other kind-of-fiend have a class together that I don't have, and they were looking at pictures of Europe, and there were lots of Angel statues, and they both started having panic attacks. They had to ask to leave the room with pieces of paper without the information on them. The teacher, being the amazing Whovian hat she is, immediately understood and let them go.
is it bad that i laugh when bad guys hurt good guys that aren't the doctor or his companion?
No. Some are idiots.
The guy with a locker below me has a million pictures on his locker of the loran, but one time i dropped my binder and looked up and saw THE MOST UTTERLY TERRIFYING PICTURE OF AN ANGEL
*lorax
I went on a school computer and saved a Weeping Angel as the screen saver. It was hilarious.
In art, we have to make sculptures of something that has parts of three different animals, monsters, or aliens. I used a cat, duck, and weeping angel. The research was terrifying-she made us research and print out pictures of them.
SPD, OHMIGOLDENGOD!
Do you it is bad that when I make a mistake typing, I say "You shall be deleted" in a Daleky way before deleting it?
My grade is putting on Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe. I auditioned for Edmund (knew I wouldn't get it, she wanted a boy) but I think I'm gonna get Mr. Tumnus
that was kind of off topic
GEEZ KESSIE, now i'm gonna start doing that
Also, I use *spoilers* way too often. and I MUST HAVE hallucinogenic lipstick.
Sevpie, I like Susan.
my friend watches all out of order and talks about later episodes. She hadn't watched the first episode with David Tennant, but she's watching the most recent season
susan?
Am I the youngest minion besides Brave? I think I am. I'm 11.
I want hallucinogenic lipstick SO BADLY
I'm 13
Susan from The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe
Val, it would be SO COOL.
OH YEAH. *facepalm*
I'm thirteen. AND A HALF.
*nods*
12. I want a TARDIS!
Heh.
To most people this would be a stupid question, but which is better, the TARDIS or the Bentley?
I am 13 and 4 months
time travelling bentley
duh
A TARDIS that looks like a Bentley!
The TARDIS disguised as the Bentley!
my mom just got to val discovering skulduggery is a skeleton
Ha. We came up with the same thing. Creepy.
Sevpie, I wish my mum would read them. But I'm so scared of them not liking them.
Seriously though, if you had to choose.
My mom loved Gordon's will
"I love you all, even those I don't particularily like. That's you Beryl"
TARDIS. A brand new one so I could disguise it as a Bentley.
TARDIS. bcuz then I can go back in time and buy a Bentley. Though I can't drive. One time, my dad let me park the car, and I started FREAKING OUT and making him take the wheel back
SPD's plan is good too
I love Beryl.
there's some character named Ross and I keep thinking the Doctor's saying Rose. This is why I watch with subtitles
Beryl is a
*****SPOILERS!!!
TREKKIE!
***SPOILER OVER*******
I loved that so much.
SPOILERS
I REALLY LIKED CAROL AND THEN AAAAAHHHHHH!!!!
incidentally, after I finished Dark Days I was convinced that Val's reflection was evil and NOW I'M RIGHT!!!!!
VICTORY IS AS SWEET AS HALLOWEEN CANDY.
SPOILERS OVER
I love that show and set of movies. My dad and I are what Beryl is too.
I want to watch that at some point. I'm finishing season 4 of dr. who, then watching Merlin (my friends are obsessed) and THEN star trek. so little time
Same. I love it too. But I like Doctor Who better, and I can't say that because if I do, my dad and grandma will kill me.
What do you guys think of the Harry Potter books?
Can anyone give me a link where I can buy the trade paperbacks of 1-5 cheap?
No sorry I buy from Amazon UK
Not as good as SP. I like them. The movies were okay. The first movie was the best. The third book was the best.
I love Harry Potter.
When I am old, I will be sitting in my rocking chair reading Harry Potter, and my family will say, "After all this time?"
And I will say, "Always."
The seventh book is EEYUCKERS
I like the other's though
have you guys seen the Very Potter Musical?
I read the first one, but stopped after that. I saw the movies, though.
I've read them all, and seen the 1st 2nd 3rd and 6th movies
Sevpie, so do I, but I can't find them of any besides 6 and 7.
SPD, I think the third book was definitely the best, and I loved the fifth movie. I hated the sixth movie, and loved the book.
I found this one copy is $59.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/ol/B0084V1XNK/ref=aw_d_ol
Sevpie, nobut I have seen PPP.
Wait, that's DB.
One second, and I'll find you this RIDICULOUSLY expensive one.
I really like the 4th book, but I always stop before they go in the maze. I read it once, thank you very much. I AM A HUFFLEPUFF AND CEDRIC DIGGORY IS A DISGRACE
what's PPP
Oh, I saw that 5000 dollar Skulduggery Plesant book.
WHAT? $5000????? I mean, they're good, but that's ridiculous
*great
I'm a Slytherin!
*makes evil plans*
I AM PROUD TO BE HUFFLEPUFF. but only because I'm one. I'm the only good Hufflepuff
Ravenclaw!
now we just need a gryffindor.
does anyone else think that Harry Potter is the worst member of the team? *flinches* I'M NOT SORRY
Racenclaw!
Oh good, I don't have to find it then. Yeah, it wasn't even hardcover.
PPP-Potter Puppet Pals
I do! He should be a Slytherin. That's what I think. Though I don't think they'd want him.
Sevpie, he's annoying. Snape is the best.
Snape! I love Snape.
Oh. I was in NYC this summer and I saw Potted Potter. It was HYSTERICAL!
Guy A: So you finally read Deathly Hallows?
Guy B: DON'T REMIND ME!
A: ?
B: THEY'RE DEAD!!
A: Who?
B: EVERYBODY!!
I threw the book at the walk when he and Dobby
SPOILERS
died
SPOILERS OVER
B: If they make a movie, it should be two parts. One about the camping, and the other about the death.
AND WE PLAYED QUIDDITCH. sort of
go on youtube and look up HISHE Harry Potter and HISHE Harry Potter Best Movie Awards
Quidditch is amazing. I have been to the Garry Potter theme park in Universal. I got Butterbeer(which was a-freaking-mazing) and VOLDEMORT'S WAND!
Garry Potter? I would read that
I have Luna Lovegood's wand. Harry Potter land was amazing.
Check out this price. Not as crazy as the 5000 dollar one, but still.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/ol/0007464983/ref=aw_d_ol?qid=1351909023&sr=1-12
*Harry Potter
Did you get Butterbeer? I was so mad that there was no Snape wand. And I went for my birthday but they didn't pick me for the demonstration. :(
OMG SPD! Can you say insanity?
That is insane, but it makes a slight amount of sense, seeing as they are 5 hardcovers.
Awww. I didn't get butter beer. And I was sad. But we went two days and on one of them I was sick and delirious. Book one copy for 39 cents (US used paperback).
but, but, they, *bangs head against wall*
Insanity. Yes I can. My friend can talk and sing with her mouth closed. It's really cool.
Do you guys have braces?
No.
39 cents copy o book one:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/ol/0061231177/ref=aw_d_ol?qid=1351908746&sr=1-1
Interesting prices including the 5000 dollar one. Pay close attention to Dark Days and Mortal Coil:

Yes. I got my fudging top ones on ON HALLOWEEN but I've had the bottom ones for over a year.
I didn't know there was such a thing as this:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/5513304430/ref=mp_s_a_1?qid=1351909666&sr=1-54&pi=SL75
I have orthodontist and dentist appointments on Monday. Right. After. Halloween.
SPD, I kind of want that
Hardback copy of book one (beats your price Kes):
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/ol/B00A0ALXOW/ref=aw_d_ol?qid=1351909828&sr=1-81
is someone actually going to BUY that?
Okay, just check out all of these prices:

That'd be stupid of them.
1 second, iPods acting up
what are you listening to?
Need a new page-tired of scrolling.
me too, also tired of reloading the page
Nothing. I'm using the iPod to talk to you people.
Ohhhh. Yeah, mine's just for music. It's that tiny one that's all screen and shaped like a square and I have no idea what it's called
Holy shite! 10,00$!
Yours is the IPod. Kessie's is the IPod touch. Mine is the IPhone.
NO ONE WILL BUY THESE! prices are sooo weird
Derek, my mom is telling me to tell you to get new publishers!
Why?
Because Harper Collins won't release the books here in America but will in basically every other place in Earth.
I mean, I completely agree, (damn Anerican HarperCollins)
YES. CHANGE PUBLISHERS.
If they're published here, there will be more Ameriminions
We are actually closer to Ireland than they are to Australia.
I know! I want to move to Australia, but not really because I hate the heat
Wouldn't make much of a difference for me.
I want to move to Ireland.
Where do you live again?
Florida.
Bye, guys. I've gotta go.
Bye Sevpie!
*scowls*
Amanda isn't at my house yet... I AM SO BOREDDDDDDDD
Bye Magpie! I live in WA state.
Hey Val!
Washington State. The rainiest place ever. *nods*
Hi SPD!
I was just thinking... Wouldn't it be weird if we knew each other in real life and didn't know it?
I have to now- was up past midnight last night and getting up early. Night!
It would be. But we dont. I've seen pictures of you and I don't live in Edmonds.
I love rain. It means the sun isn't pounding heat onto us.
Darn.
Bye Kestrel!
I want a new page. Scrolling is tough work.
New page!
New!
Finally. No more scrolling!
I dedicate this to Magpie because she hasn't gotten a page dedicated to her yet so now, I'm the first to dedicate a page to her.
I'll be back in like ten minutes.
Bye!
Hello!
WooHoo! I commented from my phone!!!
Ahhhhhhh! So excited for a Tanith novella!!
I'll have to buy a copy of the novella in Ireland...
Along with, y'know, the rest of the series.
