Well... that was fun.
My first time on Twitter proved to be something of an avalanche. You know, in a "oh my god run run run" kinda way.
I'll be using it to tell little stories here and there. Some of them will be Skulduggery related, some of them won't- such as the cute little axe murderer story from Saturday night. Some of them may even be related to the series I'll be writing AFTER Skulduggery. Ooooooh! (But I don't know about this. I literally just thought of that right there.)
I'd like to be able to post stories quite regularly, but I'm not committing myself to anything right now. Neither am I going to be using Twitter in the normal way. Instead, I'll be typing with my toes.
No, wait, that's not what I mean. I mean, I have rules. RULES! And they shall not be broken!
RULE 1: I SHALL NOT FOLLOW!
I only follow two people, and both of those just happen to be attractive lady fighters. That's a pure coincidence, I swear.
My point is, I am not going to open up Twitter every day and see a thousand different streams of tweets from a thousand different people. This will EAT UP MY TIME, and I cannot allow this to happen.
RULE 2: I SHALL NOT RETWEET!
I've seen requests for retweets on Ronda Rousey's page, and people actually get annoyed when she doesn't do it. I'm going to cut this off at the knees before it even gets started— no RT's for me.
RULE 3: I SHALL NOT REPLY!
Again, people get annoyed if you don't reply. They think you're being rude or disrespectful. They think you're ignoring them. While all these things are quite true, replying to everyone is just impossible. Also, it will EAT UP MY TIME. And I need my time for doing the thing you want me to do. Which would you rather— that I write more books, or reply to your tweets?
No, I can't do both. I can't. Shush. Shuttup. Stop. You're making this worse. Quiet. Shhhhhhhhhh.
And here it is, the final and most important rule of all.
RULE 4: I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO BREAK ANY OF THESE RULES AT THE SLIGHTEST WHIM.
I have spoken.

«Oldest ‹Older 2401 – 2600 of 4910 Newer› Newest»Ah, Miss Cain returned.
YELLOWS, AGAIN! *waves like a mad person*
*laughs* Oh, I forgot, I AM a mad person.
*continues to run around in circles like a crazy person*
Ah, that one? The blonde? Ah, you may want to know she has no brains.
Ah, I demand that you get better soon. *gentley hugs*
Hmm...now Miss Cain had posted something that she was here the whole time. I shall now proceed to feel like a stupid person.
Yeah, I was just distant...
Ooooooh crap.
I should go sleep. I'm on babysitting duty tomorrow...
15 MORE MINUTES THEN I'M OUTTA HERE.
HEY THAT'S WHAT MARA LOOKS LIKE. SHE HAS PLENTY BRAINS. She just doesn't use them.
*is gentley hugged* Thank you Ieni :)
Okay Missy :) LUCKY YOU GET TO BABYSIT.
Apparently 12 years olds could run over a child with a bike... That was the reason I wasn't allowed babysit O.o
Well, my sister is 7 (the one I'm looking after, the other one is at a friends).
So that might have something to do with it... AND I'm trusted.
I'LL BE BABYSITTING A LOT MORE WHEN MY COUSIN IS BORN.
And since when did we 12 year olds run over kids with bikes?
Babysitting? Sounds painful.
I can't get little people to do what I say. They undermime my authority, which I actually appear to have lost somewhere...
*starts looking for authority*
Also, I'd tell scary stories than be amused at their faces...
Not scary
*laughs*
What, that exact head? It's yours?
I remember when I was younger and my mum asked if I had everything for school, I said 'I've forgotten my brains. I think I left them under my pillow.'
I'll be gone for aboutish 20 mins.

Nice one, Fabi!
•in a good way•
AWH, COLIN, BRADLEY, EOIN AND ALEX
Awhhhhh!
Thanks, I guess.
Only it wasn't exactly a bee...
*currently obsessing over Merlin Becky Colin Morgan won and excite*
Welcome back, Ember!
[Will be here approx 5 minutes, not really supposed to be here. My teacher gave me permission to work on the MC during free writing hour.]
I can't believe Downton Abbey beat Doctor Who, Merlin and Sherlock!
*sullks*
Hi, Luci!
Thanks, Fabi! Good to... uh... see you?
DOWNTOWN ABBY BET DOCTOR WHO , MERLIN AND SHERLOCK!?! WHYYYYY CRUEL WORLD ?
Hi Ieni and Mel!
[Very distant]
Sherlock rocks.
And I rock, too, because I got my friend to love it, even though she had never seen it before.
Unfortunately, she doesn't get my Mycroft obsession.
Hi people who have come
Oh yeah, HELLO! C:
Hi Chloe!
Hi anybody else I forgot to greet!
Ok then.
How can nobody get the Mycroft obsession?
Did you know that Mark Gatiss's partner played Moroarty's defence attorney?!
And Luci!
We have the same name in real life!!
•first name•
Everything your teacher says
Is proved to be a fable
There never was an Arthur
Nor the knights, nor a round table
The lady of the lake
Was just a made up story too
I hate to disappoint you all
But it's not true!
It's not true!
Teacher, though you jibber
You're just a great big fibber
There was no Excalibur
Galahad? No such lad
Lancelot? Lance-not
Guinevere? Dear, oh dear!
Look at me, I'm real enough!
Not true, Merlin! Disappear!
There were no wizards, so it's clear
That it's not true!
While we're on the subject
I'm afraid I must confess
Though Dick Turpin was a highwayman
He never owned Black Bess
And Tutankhamen's tomb
Was never hit by any curse
There never was a dragon slain by George
It gets worse!
Pirates never made their victims
Walk the plank on ships
Sir Walter Raleigh wasn't first
To bring back spuds or chips
Robin Hood and Marian
A made up story too
Outlaws out in Nottingham?
It's not true!
It's not true!
Teach, you're such a liar
Your pants are catching fire
There never was a Friar Tuck
Viking hat? No horn on that
King Alfred's cake? Big mistake
It never fried? The old books lied
Frankly, I deplore ya
I hope these kids ignore ya
'Cause in fact, Queen Victoria
Never said 'We are not amused'
(Your children think I said what?
They think you said 'we are not amused', your Highness
Really? That's quite funny, isn't it?)
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha,
Ha, ha ha!
It's not true, it's not true!
It's not true, it's not true!
It's not true, it's not true!
It's not true!
Yay - horrible histories!
G2g - dinner
byii Ieni
Chloe G, have I met you before? If I have, I'm sorry, I'm scatterbrained right now.
Bye Ieni!
Um I cant remember,
Nice to (re) meet you *extends hand*
Au revoir, Ieni.
Nice to possibly remeet you too!
In Blogland, I'm a reporter, co-owner of the BSB; founder of MAHU and co-founder of the MAHU islands, and general Mycroft Holmes enthusiast.
God, I love saying that. General Mycroft Holmes enthusiast.

Hi Derek, it's always entertaining reading your posts.
I'd like to ask a question but the chances of me being somewhere where you'll be any time soon is unlikely due to living in the sticks of south west england and being a jobless bum (making a go of it as a writer) so I'm leaving it here in the hopes that you might answer it in your blog some time. I don't know if there's a rule against doing this and if there is I'm sincerely sorry.
Uh, so my question is if you have any advice or tips for someone who wants to be a writer, and what its actually like to be one etc. Anyways, thanks for the good work, can't wait for more ^_^
I AM HERE!
HI SEPH!
HOW ARE YOU ALL THIS FINE DAY?
I AM MEH. YOU?
I spent the first three hours of my day freaking out about the Talent Show, only to discover right as I start to go to assembly that it is canceled because practically all the other performers are sick.
Okay-ish
OH YEAH!
We finished To Kill a Mockingbird (movie) in L.A. class and Boo Radley looks really, really creepy
I NEED 1D
Ah, for GCSE English Lit. we'll either be doing Of Mice And Men or To Kill A Mockingbird. My mum says if they give us the option, I should go for To Kill A Mockingbird.
Yeah. Go for TKAM. Tis really good
HI MARA!
At school I've been trying to educate my friends in 1D vocabulary, for example 'brilliam.' :)
http://persephonegrief.blogspot.com
Look at the awesomeness. :P
HI STAR!
Hehe. EXTRAORDINHARRY. 1DERFUL.
HI SEPH!
I-hay Ara-may
STAR, OF MICE AND MEN IS REALLY REALLY GOOD AND I STRONGLY RECOMMEND IT!
It's really good. And so easy to write about!
But Luci, TKAM has Atticus Finch...
And Mrs. Dubose
And Boo Radley
And Scout Finch
And Dill
But I don't think we'll get to pick, so . . . :(
A member of the English Department at school informed me it depended on budget. :(
With the recession and my school redesigning its logo and uniform and website and everything, there's a strong chance they'll have not much money and by Of Mice And Men (a smaller book, so cheaper).
OMG HAHAHAHA 1D'S VIDEO DIARIES :')
But Lenny.
And the RAINBOW rabbits.
And George.
And Slim.
And friendship, symbolism, hope, loneliness, dreams...
I ACTUALLY LOVE THAT BOOK
Aloha.
I've never read it....
I'm really excited for next week, because I'll finally have time to work on MC
Fabi!!!
Fabi! *hugs*
Luci! *hugs*
My mum says that she thinks I'll get more out of To Kill A Mockingbird.
She used to be an English teacher and knows me, so I'm inclined to thijk she's right.
Also, if Of Mice And Men is as small a book as they say, then it's likely I WILL get more out of To Kill A Mockingbird.
Easy? Good for some - BUT IF IT'S EASY, EVERYONE ELSE WILL DO WELL AS WELL AND I WON'T GET THE CHANCE TO LOOK BETTER THAN (most of) THEM!!!!
*is such a show off sometimes* :P
I hate it when I work my socks off all lesson like in German today, and then these people work together and so beat me timewise, and I hate if people mess around all lesson and just get the answers off me, someone else or the teacher, because it makes me look as if I haven't worked really hard. Grrr. And the teacher will completely ignore me (because I just act like I want to be ignored, stay silent and blah) and it's annoying, although it shouldn't be because it IS my fault. *laughs*
I'm so, so competitive. *laughs again*
Hi, Mara! [hugs back]
Hi, Sev!
I have dance recitals all next week.
Monday: Performing Hip Hop and L-C trio, and I'm attending a normal ballet class as well.
Tuesday: Make-up ballet class for the one I'll miss Wednesday.
Wednesday: Performing with Jazz and L-C trio, missing regular ballet class.
Thursday: Performing with L-C group dance.
Friday: Performing with L-C trio an attending normal ballet class.
Saturday-Sunday: Rest my aching feet.
@Fabi: Busy you! D:
Although (is it John Steinbeck?) the person who wrote Of Mice And Men also wrote my mum's fabourite book of all time. No, I do not know what that book is. :P
Yep.
Hi, Star!
Favourite book = Lieblingsbücher . . . richtig???
OH MY GOD !!! Why are One Direction so funny?! XD
I have to go now :(
Bye!
Bye, Sev!
FOURS, SEPH!!!!!! :(
Bye Seph! :( *hugs*
Distant, I'm helping the PE teacher set up the arena.
The rest of the class is doing pool noodle/dodge ball/hunger games, as we reached 100 points today.
We get points for being good at PE, and then the week after we hit 100, we get to pick a game.
This is essentially Calvinball, if you know what that is.
I'm sitting out, cuz I have EXCUSES.
Im eating a roll and sausage, bacon and an egg for my dinner because Im back to front ...
Wtc?
*looks enviously at Fabi* We have no points system, and if we're excused from PE, we have to help the teachers and often bring some kind of kit, like a tracksuit, anyway. The teachers like RELY on there being none-doers. If there were no none-doers in swimming, I can't think WHAT they'd do (probably go into full panic mode) and hockey, netball, football, rugby and probably others would completely fail when we came to having matches because there would be no none-doers to referee the games.
Allowed to sit in the corner and pway on deir phoneys? NUH-UH.
It makes you WANT to do PE. Which is sorta the point. :P
You people do swimming for P.E?? Lucky ducks :D my P.E teachers couldnt care less about how many people do it and none of us want to...so they dont try to make us :)
Ok guys. I have to write a book in my school. Mine is about two kingdoms that live side by side. When the ember stone ( a gift from zeus) goes missing they search and search and eventually give up all hope. They turn against each other and declare war. Prince Hugo and prince Aidan are two princes of different castles. There friendship is forbidden so they keep it a secret. They see each other by using the old tunnel under the ground. They want the war to end so their friendship can be aloud. They try to find out a way. One day Aidan comes accross the legend of pandoras box and how all the evils of the world were released yet hope was not released from the box. They go in search for the box to bring back and release hope. That way the people of tellborian and airbearst will have more hope in finding the stone and they will stop fighting
You have to have a doctor or parent's note to be able to sit out like this. If you wear high-heels or something, and can't participate because of that, you are in trouble and have to do something-or-other. I forget what it is. I hate high heels.
The school is really nervous about legal issues. They don't want me to agitate my stomach doing some sort of PE thing. I had a doctor's note not to do it earlier in the week, but my PE teacher says absolutely not until Monday.
So ya
I don't like swimming... I'm scared of water :P
The ways to "kill" the other "tributes"
A. Dodgeballs. If the dodgeball hits your arm or leg, you can't use it for the rest of the game. If it hits your head or torso, you're dead.
B. Beat them in the "Race to escape the flames" Those who are no longer in as tributes try to catch you out in a certain zone.
C. For some reason, the "cornucopia" is a hula-hooping contest zone...?
D. There's a target, and if you throw a ball into the exact center, you can eliminate an opponent.
This game is weird.
I TELL MY MA WHEN I GO HOME THE BOYS WONT LEAVE THE GIRLS ALONE THE PULL ME HAIR......
Yes, that's what 'excused' means.
If you just forget your kit, you still have to do it, usually. Plus you get a kit-mark. 3 kit-marks equals a detention.
In swimming, tons of people get their mums to write them notes saying they have ear infections and whatnot. Because they either don't like swimming or are girls and don't like getting their hair wet or are girls and on their period.
Swimming in PE is so unpopluar at our school. :/
...We play benchball...and minor games...and we do various types of dancing such as regular dancing...dance mats and social dancing...also we do hockey and trampolining...and gymnastics...but thats what the girls do the boys play football and hockey...and basketball...and they do social dancing aswell (y'know because they are all basically boy/girl dances) but thats it...
OHH! and we all do athletics...
We have Dance as a separate subject, for the whole of year seven abd for two-thirds of year nine.
FOURS FABI! :(
We do hockey, netball (rugby for the boys), football and rounders (cricket for the boys) in Games. Then in PE we have swimming, trampolining, orienteering, badminton, tennis, adventurous,activities (team games, basically), and other unremenbered stuff.
We only do dodgeball and benchball and Swedish and Danish longball when it's too wet/snowy to go outside and a quatre our year group has to share one sports hall. D:
It's crowded but it works. :)
I hate P.E with a passion :P
Yeah, we have athletics in PE also. And gymnastics. And fitness, which is TORTURE, trust me.
Aww I did fitness in 1st and 2nd year but thats when the classes were mixed now its just girls :)
WEhoo
I just have PE and swimming. And Gaelic
Has anyone tried temple run 2???TIS EPICNESS .!.
Games is just girls. PE is mixed.
Gtg to fencing, fours!!!
Hey Guys!
Awful timing...
Bye Star!
Bye star! Bye fabi!
Ignore that.
Bye!
Bye Fabzilla!
Oh yeah, the ded...
I dedicate to Skittles!
Good ded!
I've been deding to them for over a year so I hope it is! :D
*laughs* SKITTLESSSSS!
I don't know if you are going to read this but if you do please clear something up: will you be posting the stories only on twitter? You see...some of us are deactivating their twitter accounts as they never spend time on there and feel its rather useless. If you are going to write some stories only on there...well then...I'll just unfollow EVERYONE else and just follow you. Everyone else tweets stupid things...some people even have "OMG!! BEST PIE EVER!! ROTFL!! XD" so yeah...^.^'''

Stupid fitness homework... I gotta film myself jogging for 10 mins...
Film yourself? That's ridiculous...
It is! I'm just going to keep talking to you guys while I do it...
HOLY FUDGECAKES!
Carly Rae Jepsen is older than Adele... O.o
Scary world which we live in.
Rim, that's ridiculous!
I really want some Skittles... I should've bought some since they were only a pound...! D:
Meh, I have Haribo. That'll do c:
Film yourself jogging?
That's kinda stupid...
At least I have a cross-machine, otherwise I'd have to set up a Cooper Run for myself...
I do not really understand, but it does not matter much
*runs in and trips*
Hello people.
I'm both here and in the world of writing, I am a multidimensional being.
*pats Val on the back*
y'all right?
Hey Eden.
*leaps up*
I is fine!
*starts playing viola*
Hey Rim.
Hello Eden Threatening.
I'm making a video about why I dislike Directionators.
YOU DIRECTIONATORS ARE A DISGRACE TO MANKIND -_-
What is that?
What's a Directionator?
People who pretend to be Directioners but aren't. Like if I said to a girl:
Me: Hey, do you like 1D?
Her: OMG totally.
Me: What's your favourite song by them?
Her: But they only have one...
^^^^
That is a Directionator.
I thought it'd be somethig more exciting than that. Now I just don't care.
Okey doke. I'll just continue to hate on them, like they do to us. *nods*
Okay hate away.
No one is going to stop you.
Well, actually they hate on us Directioners. We just try to turn them into Directioners, but-
Never mind. You don't care...
*plays Harry Potter music over and over again on viola, because I'm really bored*
I wonder if anyone in my house is getting annoyed yet...
*plays obnoxiously loud*
Oh my god on Saturday we're doing a renactment of SP entire series
That is so awesome, Zafira.
