Annie Graves may or may not have been helped out in the ideas department by a gent called David Maybury. The name sound familiar? I've developed a habit- especially in the short stories- of killing off the Maybury brothers in increasingly horrible ways, and the real-life David Maybury is now trying to get his own back. In Frankenkids, the poor boys who are the victims of the terrible Uncle Fraser are named Landy, and the older one is called Derek...
I'm not going to tell you what terrible fate befalls them. All I will say is that David Maybury better watch out. In the next short story, he's getting his head cut off.

https://www.writers-online.co.uk/Writing-Magazine/
It's BEAUTIFUL! *drools*
I actually CAN get it
On my ipad.
Newstand.
5 bucks though....
I can't. It doesn't show up when I search for it. D'Arvit! (Too much Artemis Fowl. Don't even ask.)
I just searched Writing magazine. touched whatever showed up. Derek's face right there.
Brother came over to see if I was alright...
Well, lucky you.
Damn American devices...
I donno if I can buy it.
It is 5 bones....
At least you have KOTW.
True. But that has nothing to do with the damn American devices.
Do you want to know what I DON'T have? My original, first ever, Anerican copy of Book 1. Because I, stupidly, lent it to someone, and he f**ing LOST it!
We all make mistakes.
But he lost MY copy! If he's going to lose a book, than he should lose his own. Or if it HAS to be someone else's, than NOT SKULDUGGERY. *stops self* Ok. I will stop ranting now.
I have the collector's edition of the first UK version of book one.
What's that about, then?
Well, Val, good for you. My parents refuse to let me collect. :( they don't seem to understand that I would be using MY money.
I have to go to bed... Night night! Bye!
Knight knight.
What is so special about the collector's editions.
(that was a question)
(That was a statement.)
Hello Blogland. This is SPDirectioner. I just changed my name to One of You because it seemed fit for my situation. The reason why I haven't been commenting much is because I have been busy. Also, Zafria, I LOVE the Mortal Instruments as well-but those books arent as good as Skulduggery.
Hello One!
busy is good.
What's your "situation"?
The collector's one is the first version that came out.
Oh, then me too

The drama teacher called it 'By The Light Of The Moon.'
I have...
*counts how many lines I have*
...10 lines. The last everyone says together, though.
AND YES. I TOOK NOTICE OF THE COMMENT TIMES. :P
What's A Mid Summer Nights Dream?
It's a Shakespeare play.
brb
Oh, okay.
OPPAN GANGNAM STYLE!!!!
Hi!
Hi Kessie! *hugs*
*hugs back* How are you?
I'm good. Just watched PSY on X Factor.
Gotta go. Bye!
Hi Kessie!!!! Bye Missy!
...Hello?
HOW CAN PEOPLE NOT KNOW OF A MIDSUMMER NIGHT'S DREAM???
We did it twice. Once in primary, once in secondary. And to top it off, we're doing The Tempest this year. How much Shakespeare???? It seems to me we do about him almost every year. We did him in year four a bit, year five, year eight and now year nine. Grah. I mean, no offense to Shakespeare, but why do about this same guy over and over again? Yes, he's famous and really referenced to and stuff, but surely we could do him twice then forget about him? By the time I leave school I think I'll have done him in detail five times. Why????
...Hello?
HI WILLOW!
Hey, Star. :)
How are you?
Fine. You?
I'm grand.
Awesome. :)
Hello? Anybody there...? *Echoes of walls*
*off
HI IENI!
I totally forgot I left a message on here! I was just reading on of Derek's interviews the was on Tumblr and sending him cyber-evils about Tanith and then...
So, how are you?
Fine. My brother and sister aren't, though. They're ill. :(
How're you?
Ah..my brother always seems to be ill.
Fine, actually. I was still mumbling away how the bus was going to crash on the way to school today or run over things or cars and staring at the person in the concervatory who watches BBC news whilst drinking tea/coffee amd then I look like an evil dark elf/gnome thing with my coat hood up...
*laughs* :)
It's ages since of us has been ill.
I'm like never ever ill. I haven't had a day off school, because of illness in years, except from when I had a reaction to the jabs and that was okay by mid-morning.
Mmm. I don't become ill that often. Once every few yearsish.
I get colds, coughs and sore throas every year, but they don't really count, because they're just irrating rather than actually ill..
If colds counted as being ill, I'd be ill about five times a year. :)
Aha, yeah true.
G2g - violin lesson. Byebye Blogland!
FOURS IENI!
Hi?
HI FLAME!
Ah, so you read about the bit where Max died? :(
Ah, not again!!!! Stupid phone... Stop deleting my comments!!!
Never mind, I have to go now.
:(
Fours, green Lynxia.
Hey guys.
Hi Star.
What was Flame talking about earlier?
A book called City of Glass, in The Mortal Instruments series. The part where Max dies. :(
That's what you meant, right?
Yep, thanks.
So, howya?
Okayzo. Youzo?
I'm fine.
No homework except for sphe.
I'm watching Ireland play the Faroe Islands.
We have a terrible soccer team.
We lost 6-1 to Germany and an island group who only have a population of around 30,000 lost 3-1.
YAY! I DIDN'T GET FIRST! :)
Not everyone can be good at everything.
Yeah, I suppose we're good enough at rugby.
And boxing. Katie Taylor. :)
*Quietly points out Jedward are from Ireland*
*Fails to point out how Jedward beat the UK twice in Eurovision*
*laughs*
Heyy
Hey.
Hello??
Hi NJ.
Hey Star!
*hugs*
How're you??
Hi NJ and Staruno!
Hey Flame!
*hugs*
How're you??
Alright.
I had rugby tonight. First session, wheee!
OOH, How did it go?
NJ have you read UNRAVELLING yet?
Pretty good. I seemingly did well.
I ploughed the trainers son on pads. It was fun.
I haven't read it yet, but I will this week end I promise, it is sitting there, waiting to be opened!!
But there was a lot of people going, oh what are you doing here?
And I basically hadn't a clue what to do.
It was quite funny.
And I was told when you walk through them gates, there is no more nice person.
Which was fun, to say the least.
And I was helped by one lad named CÃaran, his name was? *shrugs*
OMG That's my brother's name!! :P
My wrist hurts though.
How be you all?
And NJ THAT BOOK NEEDS TO BE READ. I COMMAND YOU TO BURN THE COMPUTER AMD CONCENTRATE ON THAT BOOK.
My wrist hurts though.
How be you all?
And NJ THAT BOOK NEEDS TO BE READ. I COMMAND YOU TO BURN THE COMPUTER AMD CONCENTRATE ON THAT BOOK.
Maybe it was your brother D: *gasps*
But.. but then I won't get to talk to all you awesome people, and my dad would kill me for ruining the computer and take money off me to get a new one and I'll never be allowed on it, and then I will never be able to talk to you all again, and I will cry because of that, because you are all too awesome and epic for words! :(

I am rambling, you should stop me :L
But Yeah I like it!!
xD I know she's evil, she at least is Grand Mage! ( *glares at Derek*)
I think i'll be glaring at Derek til he gives in. That'd be fun going to a signing glaring at him. I wonder what he'd do
Nor do I actually, but a girl can dream.
I would actually cry of happiness if NJ was even mentioned, I don't care if she was killed of or anything.
I really don't, I would still be so happy!
Probably run a mile :P JK
He would probably just sit there, not really knowing what to do or say :P
If Zaf got mentined or killed I'd just be happy. I know Zaf probably would be killed xD knowing Derek he likes messing with emotions
I think he'd be confused which Minion I am, though the obvious 'ZAFIRA KERIAS' in my books kinda gives the clue
LOL
Yeah, that is a big clue!
:P
I wrote my given and taken name in all copies of my books.
Smart.
In the ones that I have signed, I only have my given name, but if I ever see Derek Again, I am having my taken name put in at least one of them :P
I need to meet Derek! Im still upset i prolly never will....I want a book signed that never gonna happen. Its...ugh. Ugh ugh ugh!!!!
*whips shadows at tree*
sorry Derek-lizard
Hellllo
I wanna meet Cassie Clare.

I wanna meet Cassie Clare.
It no fair.
You Americans have all the good authors :(
But the Irish have DEREK! C'mon Derek is like all the good authors combined!!!
*cries*
why he cant come here is beyond me
The Fan Base in America Isn't big enough yet :/
I really wish it was so you could meet him.
No it's not. You have Elizabeth Norris and Veronica friken' Roth. Not to mention Cassandra Clare. Dan Wells, Dan Kronkas and Michael bloody Grant!
How 'bout Holly Black, too?
And Joeseph Delany has dragged the spooks books out way too long.
Is Joseph Delany Irish?
Haa!!!! Mmmhmm thats what they 'say' they just too bloody lazy. Why cant they attempt? There are people I know who would meet him! Im sick of being the country overlooked
English I think.
He has 11 books in the series now, and they don't come out in paperback until like 2 years after the release date so all my copies are mismatched. I need to read 8,9 and 10 which I have.
One author at time, tough.
CC has my undivided attention :D Until I'm caught up and then Michael Grant's Gone series, annnnnddd Timeriders then, I think. Actually, I wanna read Anthony Horowitz's books next.
I met him on Saturday :D
I need to finish CoG!!
Gah!
I start school early in the morning, 8:45. It's stupid, my school.
Making go in an extra 15 minutes on Wednesdays.
I'm ranting,
K,
I need sleep.

Seriously??
8.45?
In the morning??
Bye Zaf! *hugs* You'll meet Derek some day.

Half 11 at night and I am tired.
Bye/Night!!
Night
My school starts 7:25am ends 2:25pm
Ugh. Swimming is hard.
Hewwo.
Hi.
I went swimming.
It was hard.
...I'm getting the impression that I take dodgeball too seriously XD
I love dodge ball and know I definitely take it too seriously.
I don't understand dodgeball...
I had some serious ninja skills. No joke. My friend tried to toss the ball to me and I grabbed it with one hand, turned my wrist, and hit someone on the other side of the room without even turning to look. The look of sheer awe on my friend's face was priceless XD
Hit the people on the other team. If you hit them, they're out. If they hit you, you're out.
Simple.
Awesome. And that is why you are the NINJA assassin detective.
Oh! Dodgeball. Sorry, for some reason I was thinking volleyball. Yeah, i'm great at dodgeball.
Exactly. No longer shall they tell me I'm not a ninja!
Actually, they'll never stop... I trip on everything.
Oh, I suck at volleyball.
And if you catch a ball, the person who threw it is out.
Yeah.
Will be extremely distant, rereading KOTW.
