Die Horribly Winner! (And finishing a book)

I have just pressed SEND.

By pressing SEND, I have emailed off the completed book to my agent and editor. It will now be sent to the copyeditor who, amongst other things, will be checking for grammar and spelling mistakes that I've missed but, more importantly, will be ensuring that everything I've written makes sense.

She will be checking facts and figures and timelines, scouring her notes on the other books to make sure I haven't contradicted myself... A good copyeditor in invaluable, and I have a great one.

It's done. I wrote the two Scapegrace chapters that I'd left until last. Oh, and I ALSO included the winner of the Die Horribly competition...



It took me until last night to pick a winner. I was sent 30 finalists out of everyone who entered. Of those 30, I quickly whittled it down to 15. Then, not so quickly, down to 10. Then it took me ages to narrow it down to 5. Then 3.

There were some great entries. Lots of funny reasons why people reckoned they should be the reader I pick to kill horribly in the book. But I needed something specific. I needed something that would fit in with what I'd written. And there was only one reader who fit PERFECTLY.

So congratulations to Lewis Holmes, from the UK. You shall have the distinct honour of being Horribly Killed in The Dying of the Light.



Lewis' death was the last thing I had to write. Now it's all over. Sure, I'll be sent the copyeditor's notes to approve, and there'll be a little more fiddling around between now and printing time, but...

... but it's over. I have finished writing Skulduggery Pleasant.

I think I need to lie down now.

Chione Asahina said...

Now now, you better snap out of your murderous stage or you will be either dead or still locked in this jail cell in 5 days time Little Vampire.

Dragona Pine said...

Keep her under observation. Remove anything she could use to kill herself. If she still manages, get a healer down here ASAP. She won't die.

*turns to Silente* I told you that you would not escape me.


I'm going to get a healer to look at my hand. It got some tissue damage whilst making the arrest. *walks out of Silente's cell and locks the door securely*

If she escapes, I'll kill you all.


(i have to go now. Bye!)

Bye Dragona!

Bye dragona

TEMPESTTTTT

Wait was Dragona serious about "killing us all"?

He will kill us, so listen. ((Sorry I fell ssleep)

Chione Asahina said...

Now imagine that. 5 days time, Blake has Trip as his best man, Mithria couldn't make it and my other maid of honour killed herself or is in jail. How would that make me feel on my wedding day not having anyone beside me?

I also need someone to go dress shopping with.

John said...

*Attempts to talk through all the laughing*
H- He can come right back and try!
*lol's some more*
Oh gods I've never really fought for my life here. Then again if he tried I still wouldn't be!
*keeps laughing*

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

*looks at Chi*
*tears streaming down her face*
You left me behind.
*releases a sob*
*looks away again*
*whispers* you left me.

Chione Asahina said...

How did I leave you behind? I had no idea you were doing this. I was too stressed about the wedding. and the planning.

Unknown said...

Hello, all!

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

((ffs now I'm crying! I can barely see!))

*whispers*
I didn't fit into your happily ever after.
*is full on crying*

*her hair is scruffy and knotted*
*her clothes jave blood on them and are ripped*
*she's a broken toy*
*curls up in the corner*

Amethyst Temerity said...

Salt shaker...
I'm leaving now. Bye!

Trip Castalan, Lord of The Hobbits, The Fourth Most Popular Folk/Parody Banana Thief In The Land said...

Oh god.

Yeah.

Trip is going to have to be Blake's best man.

Yay! An excuse to stop feeling emotions! *drools at character development into even more of an asshole*

Also, if you need someone to go dress shopping with, Trip can be pretty effeminate.

Chione Asahina said...

Bye Amethyst!

((Aww Silente!))

You are in my happily ever after. You're like my sister. You're my best friend and going to be my maid of honour. What would Matex say if he saw you like this? you love him.

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

((bye Amethyst!))

Chione Asahina said...

Lol Trip no.
I am NOT taking you shopping for my wedding dress xD

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

*sobs harder*
Matex.... he didn't say it back.
*sniffles*
I'm no ones happily ever after. No one wants a broken toy.
*curls up tighter*

Trip Castalan, Lord of The Hobbits, The Fourth Most Popular Folk/Parody Banana Thief In The Land said...

But I can be all sassy and stuff. I'd make a great dress shopper! And I'm not usually prone to squealing, but you ARE getting married so if you really need some squealing when you find the right dress, I can oblige.

Trip Castalan, Lord of The Hobbits, The Fourth Most Popular Folk/Parody Banana Thief In The Land said...

*decides it's probably a wise time to step from the shadows*

Oh yeah, then how the hell did I end up engaged and with a kid? Some people dig the whole broken toy thing.

*wraps her in a big hug, a very secure hug that he uses on criminals to prevent them escaping, but a rather comforting one nonetheless*

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

*doesnt point out that his wife ran off with Alastair*
*and that Tadra is a bit broken*
*instead just murmurs*
Your not broken though Trip.

John said...

*Tacklehugs everyone in the general area with clones (Exept Chio of course, she gets the real thing)*

I'm back!

Chione Asahina said...

*turns to water and reforms inside the bars*

You're not a broken toy. I love you like a sister.

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

*stares* what the Hell?

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

*smiles sadly at Chi*
Look at me Chi. Really look at me. Look at the type of person I am. Look at the sort of stuff I do. Look at what I physically /am./
*spreads her arms wide*
All I am is a discarded, broken plaything.

Trip Castalan, Lord of The Hobbits, The Fourth Most Popular Folk/Parody Banana Thief In The Land said...

I feel I should respond to that be listing my 'psyco cred', but we'd be here too long.

And, I know you wanted to point out that my relationship crashed and burned, but for nearly a year until some god damn alchemist phenomenon wrecked it I was in a happy, functioning relationship and have a child. Being a broken version of a person doesn't stop you being one.

Trip Castalan, Lord of The Hobbits, The Fourth Most Popular Folk/Parody Banana Thief In The Land said...

Hey Blake, Zaf.

John said...

*The clones dissipate into shadow and he stands up*
Well said Trip. Silente nobody gives a rats ass what you physically are other than being slightly jealous of your athletic abilities.

Snow said...

*damnit Tempest*

*damn you and your emotional rp**damnit damnit damnit*

Chione Asahina said...

*walks over slowly and hugs her gently, not letting her go, stroking her hair*

John said...

*Slowly and casually throws glitter bombs at the two of them hugging without breaking eye contact*

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

*looks at Blake*
It's not just physically. I can't control myself. I tortured people! I kidnapped Zaf and I-
*stops and changes direction of that sentance*
And Sam and Dugglyn too. I enjoyed hurting them. I enjoy hearing them suffer. Then I acted like their friend the very next day. I'm a monster. And you all refuse to see it! Open your eyes! I have killed thousands of innocent people! I have laughted and danced on their graves! I-
*stops again, shakes her head and just sits down in the corner facing the wall*

Trip Castalan, Lord of The Hobbits, The Fourth Most Popular Folk/Parody Banana Thief In The Land said...

[Is this hug a little crowded? Yeah, maybe you should get out. But then what do I do? Awkwardly watch? Yeah, 'cause that's not creepy. YOU'RE A GOD DAMN SOCIOPATH WHO TALKS TO HIMSELF, YOU COULDN'T GET MUCH MORE CREEPY!]

John said...

Silente. Which part of "nobody gives a rats ass" did you not get. We all know that's not who Silente is. And we all love Silente for who she is.

*hands a note to Blake, it says: Hey, do you think if I slapped her and told her to buck up 'cause we've all got these problems and she's just being a whiny bitch about them she'd get over it? It's worked before.*

I once kicked a guy into a furnace and lectured him on what the flaws in his plan were while he slowly burned alive.










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

But that is who Silente is! I am that person! I did those things! Not someone else. Me.

((Hey!))

John said...

*Hand the note back to Trip with a message scribbled on the back: Not really sure, I was gonna try it but then then started having their heart-to-heart girly moment so I just opted to go with the glitter bombs*

Trip Castalan, Lord of The Hobbits, The Fourth Most Popular Folk/Parody Banana Thief In The Land said...

Yeah.

You just have to deal with the fact you did bad things and move on. In the end, it's that or death, because if you fail at one it'll drive you to the other.

By the way Silente, you can't lye about your feelings to a guy who can literally look at them. You aren't okay in the slightest.

However, I could make you okay.

You know, they're about to go dress shopping, so I hope those aren't for us. I mean, I love you and everything but not in that way. Besides, you're engaged!

Yeah! You know, a couch over there, a lamp here... Maybe a rug, this place could be quite cosy!

So, Blake, what're the limits for your bachelor party? Murder? Assault? Robbery? Please don't rule out robbery. Please!

Kinda here wbvd

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

That's fine Snow. I was reading back the rp from last night. That's was an interesting night...to put it simply. Turns out SilenteTC has grown somewhat independent.. that's quite suprising..

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

I think she might be a psychopath in all honesty. I'm not sure if what happened last night was a game to her..
Anyway how are you?

Snow said...

Im good

Good! Thats good! :)

She's not a psychopath, trust me.

Star Inkbright said...

Hey Zaf. :)

Star Inkbright said...

The great thing about non-fiction books is that everything mentioned in them is actually real and you can actually google it and find out more and it's so cool.
I mean, imagine reading SP, and then going "ha, that's cool" and being able to go visit your local Sanctuary or go on websites about magic.
It would be like that. O_O

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

Who knows Star. I mean if you believe in the multiple universes theory then it is. And maybe its even true in this universe.
Its weird to think that in one universe everything we rp is actually true. In some its the past. Some the present. And for some, for some we are writing their futures..

Star Inkbright said...

@Silente: *nods*
Although I believ we roleplay an altered version of it, and that what we rp is kind of a twisted version manipulated by all the layers of reality we're seeing it through . . . .

*really msd - going out soon*

Star Inkbright said...

Also, if Silente were a psychopath, she wouldn't be Silente.
It's like how when my characters go into the past and meet themselves (this generally only happens in fanfic in my head :P), they generally work out that the other version of themselves isn't them. It's someone similar to them, maybe it's someone they used to be, but they aren't the same person.
I believ people chnager into different people.

Well she'd still be Silente just not the one you thought she was.

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

*looks at Jekyll* which theory? I have so many.

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

Jekyll: About having good and evil. I remember you have attacked Zafira before, haven't you? You're thinking like I do, each of us has both light and dark. You realize this, and that makes you stronger. Why do you think you aren't in a transport car to a gaol? Zafira values that, she often will look at both sides of a crime, and then decide. You've technically earned yourself a few decades, but Zafira values you realize you're good and evil.

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

Stronger?
*laughs slightly*
I'm the weakest person I know.
*smiles*
If I was strong i wouldn't let the dark get so powerful. And I iust though Zaf was ridiculously forgiving or something. I mean, personally the first time I attacked her I expected to be thrown in s goal. This time I thought I'd be dead. But here I am.
*shrugs*
But that's me for you.

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

Jekyll: Look at me, Silente. I have Hyde, he has killed and tortured so many. I'm in America now, do you know why? Because Zafira saw sense when Grand Mage Graves did not. I asked to come to America because I know Zafira isn't stupid. You're not dead or in a gaol because obviously she sees something in you. That's how she is, she'll try to help you. I mean, granted we've had some people who are beyond help. She has yet to imprison Niccolò Croatoan, and he's probably tortured her to near insanity at least four times. So, you're not weak, or you would be in a gaol.

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

*tilts head to the side*
How do you help people like me? And what if I am beyond help?

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

Jekyll: If you're beyond help, and you cannot see the error of your ways, then she will punish you according to the laws. If you can see you've done wrong, and you can manage to stop, and lead a life normally as possible, she'll leave you be. People simply view her as crazy, I understand. She was one of Ravel's supporters, but the ones who say that never were in the country while she's been in power. *laughs quietly* I sound insane, I should have let her speak to you, but I'm afraid she's trying to figure out why she hasn't seen Elder Tesla. Work has been done, but the Elder is...nowhere. I told her perhaps Elder Tesla is searching for Alastair and Adra.

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

Your not insane. Well maybe a little bit. I'd heard that Elder Tesla had gone missing. It's rather worrying. I do hope you find her. One last question. What if I can see the error of my ways but I fail to stop? No matter how many chances given. What if i carry on like this? What then?

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

Jekyll: I really do not know. You will be the first one she has had. As for our Elder, work is being done, that's the odd thing.

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

*smiles*
Work is odd? How unorganized is the American Sanctuary?
*shakes head*
Do you like what I've done with the place by the way?
*gestures to the patterns carved into the walls*
If only I'd had some paint. It would've looked much nicer.
*sighs*

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

Jekyll: No, its odd we have yet to see her. I'd be quiet, do not make comments about the Americans. I'm English and I still would not. *looks at the cell walls* Yes, I can see you need some paint. Perhaps I can borrow some from Christopher, Zafira's youngest son.

I don't believe people have good and evil.
I don't believe they have evil sides and good sides.
I believe it's all mingled and mixed, and that they have different traits, and that . . . well, determination is generally seen as a good trait, but stubbornness is often seen as a bad one. And they're really the same thing, there's just positives and negatives to that trait.
And I don't think you have good traits and evil traits. I believe that all your traits have good and bad things about them.
So I don't believe that people have good sides and evil sides. I believe they have a kaleidoscope effect of billions of different sides reflecting off everywhere, and each side both shines and casts a shadow.

Like how being mean is a bad thing, but it's also a good thing.
And being nice is generally seen as good, but there are plenty of downsides to it.
The Valkyrie/Darquesse thing . . .
I don't believe people have evil sides like that.
I really like Valkyrie as a character, though - Derek did make her, basically, a real person. And I really respect that. :) And I like how I don't really like Valkyrie. I think that's good. *nods*

I also like Skulduggery, as a character.
Skulduggery's interesting . . .

Well I got an army of zombie caterpillars. I have also been trying to find Masky!
*glares at Silente*
I was going to try and catch her unprepared and make her pay for the things she did.

Star Inkbright said...

And I don't believe that people can turn to their good side.
Their good side is everywhere.
But I do believe that people can become better people and learn to master themselves better so their sides work more to their and other people's advantage.

((Nice Star!! I wish you had gotten the ded!!))

Star Inkbright said...

And they can also -
you know, if you rearrange the sides, maybe emphasise some more than others, there will be different relections and different colours and a different pattern will form.

Star Inkbright said...

(@Dugglyn: Thanks. I make speeches on a regular occurrence though. And then I would have to shape what I was saying to make it fit the ded.
I don't say these things so people can say "hear hear". I say these things so people can listen to them and take them in and maybe revise their view of things a little.)

You can still do that. She's being released when Chi comes to go dress shopping. A lot of people don't think that's fair. I doubt Masky is safe when she gets out.
*thinks back to Blake's words last night*
And she won't be allowed to forget any time soon either...



Zombie catapillers sound cool.

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

Jekyll: Your point is valid, Star. Though mine has gone through countless hours of research, I see you have your own theories.

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

Yes perhaps Jekyll. If I can learn to behave.

Star Inkbright said...

Yeah.
Maybe I'm just going through life being wrong and deluded but I view my theories as slightly more than theories.

Also, Silente it is /wild/ banshee ninja. Don't forget it!!!!
Hehe
((Yesterday in Irish, teacher was telling the 82s to don't forget it and my friends and I turned to each other and started saying don't forget it in a weird creepy voice!))

Star Inkbright said...

(I can't do weird creepy voices. XD)

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

Right. Wild banshee ninja. Got it.
*nods*

(I'm in quite a harsh mood today.
That's interesting.
I think it's because I've been out and just been drifting in my head and so forgotten how to do communication.)

Irish= Irish dance
82= intermediate 2

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

So Dugglyn. Any plans?
*glances at her still painting*
Or are you going to talk to me all day?

Star Inkbright said...

(I think maybe I should just leave until I remember how to communicate, but then again I'm not going to remember not doing it . . . :P)

(My friends think I'm very weird, I think.
They probably have lots of thoughts stemming off that, like they probably think I'm insane and embarrassing and explosive and argumentative and annoying and rant-y and ununderstandable and they probably think I have a lack of awareness of what people think or that I don't mind how what I do looks to people and they probably think all kinds of things, I don't know, I've never been in their heads.
I should think about my friends more often, though, it's interesting. Thanks.)

I probably won't attack you. Chi wants you to go dress shopping with her. It's her wedding! I won't be able to make it because of school and then Irish dance so I am going to be nice and not beat you up.

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

*laughs at the 'i won't beat you up' part*
Thanks. It's appreciated. Very appreciated.

That is, if you want to..

I do have some good friends, though . . .

I should probably disappear, I'm sorry.
I'm in a really odd mood.

Sorry Sam. I'm sorry. And you Dugglyn. I'm sorry.

Star Inkbright said...

She's still your friend.
No matter what else she's done, she's still your friend and she's been good to you and helped you out.
The bad things don't change that.
And as she's always helped you out, don't you owe it to her to help her out now she needs it?
