On August 26th, just twelve short days away, we will be kicking off the tour with a NEW, special event in Waterstones in Hampstead. Apart from the fact that you'll be able to snag a copy of Demon Road a day ahead of its release (you'll even be able to snag one of the limited Platinum editions), and for a full TWO POUNDS off, we'll also have goodies to give out on the night, I'll be yammering on about writing or some such nonsense, and then I'll be signing whatever you want me to sign.
Reserve tickets in store or on www.waterstones.com/events.
This is IMPORTANT, and it applies to all of the signings and events — I will sign WHATEVER you bring. I don't care what the book is (so long as I've, y'know, actually written it) and I don't care how many are in your bag. If someone, at whatever signing you turn up to, tells you I'm only going to sign books you buy in their store, let me know and I'll sort it out. That rarely happens anymore, but some staff members are over-eager. Obviously time is sometimes an issue, so if the queue is long as I have to jet off to the next signing, we'll impose some limitations — but that's always a last resort.
Demon Road is coming...

2nd!
(I once has to rebuy one of the Skulduggery books because they were only signing stuff in the store. I was pissed cause it meant spending money I'd saved especially for shopping that day.. and it was basically all my money.)
Onwa: Why thank you.
*sighs happily*
James: *how is food kissing him..?*
Manuel: how unfortunate..
Okay. Before I go eat. I have one question: What is midwifery?
Commenting on the blog because I need to comment on the blog as I haven't commented on the blog since last time I comment on the blog which was... let me think about the last time I commented on the blog... a year ago, abouts.
(DUCK!)
hello.
(As the name would suggest, Grant - training you to become a midwife.)
Alexandria: I like it here.
Bethany: *she runs her fingers over her cheeks*
(Jaimie - Apologies. In the previous comment I did state that half of the food reformed into her, but when I was typing it that part of the sentence was underlined as if I was editing it. It seems that it deleted it when I changed lines - a glitch which occasionally happens with this mobile phone.)
Lily: People weren't happy with me.
Why yes, I have made a glorious return
(He he *hugs duck *
I'm gonna become a midwife )
Sil is basically a midwife xD
(I like babies)
But now I must go, back into the shadows from wence I came
( i am back :P )
(Noooo ! Don't leAve duck :-(
Hai k!)
-cuddles my baby-
One of my old best friends from roblox might be coming on so yayyy
(@gem because she welcomes all newcomers to the blog? :P
*hugs chloe* I like kids more as you can teach them stuff properly :P)
(*hugs k* buuuut babies are adorable!)
(the cry more and poop ! kids are easier :P
-is her baby and cuddles back-)
(Well kids used to be babies
They can't skip yay stage of their lives )
*that
(Hey duck.
Hey Chloe!
Sil: I AM NOT A MIDWIFE!!!)
Onwa: Good, I'm glad.
*blushes, sighing happily*
(Ahhh okay.)
James: *kisses her back, sighing happily*
Manuel: everyone makes mistakes.
(Iknow :P and I like babies I just prefer kid mode as they can talk to you and its more important than when they are just born as retention skills are none :P aka I want to teach my kids geek stuff and I can't do that when they're a baby :P)
i agree with k
(Hey Jai!
My friend midge said that if he has a daughter that turns I to those false girl you get in school, he would disown her
I took that opportunity to use my wise words and told him that you love your children no matter what
You can't force them to be what they are not, whether they turn out to be jocks or geeks... It's not up to you)
Hello. Ish. Wbvd for a bit.
(that doesn't mean I can't teach them geek stuff... therefore making it easier to become a geek :P )
(Hey star ^.^)
But if they turned into the sterotipical dumb dickhead jock, we didn't do our job as parents.
(Well if my mum had a choice, I wouldn't be like I am now )
(Hey Star)
*nods at Chloe* Those were wise words. :)
Heyyyyyy GEMMACHLOEKEIRONJAIFERA IS THAT EVERYONE YES I THINK SO
(Thank you star ^.^)
hey star *hugs* *nods at frank* you think we should go finish our paper rounds? yeah i think so too.
Very well then, what is a midwife?
( a person who delivers babies)
(Pregnant women have a midwife to check up on them throughout the pregnancy
The midwife is incharge of delivering babies and checkin up on them after they are born)
(@Chloe I'm proud.)
(Proud?)
(For what you said to midge)
(Awww shucks 😅
Thank you)
(You're welcome :)
(*hugs jai*)
anyone on? really don't feel like going just yet.
Hi everyone :D How are y'all doing? :) I'm new on this blog thingy so yeah... I really like Skulduggery pleasant? x.x

*looks Yori up and down*)
(Welcomes Yori! I'm inky the werewolf
Or chloe ^.^
I really must be off now)
hi jai. how's you?
Sounds amazing, I wish I could go!
(We have a plan though, for me to go to Europe next year!
My uncle has been flying to Europe and so when my family goes home, I'll stay with my uncle and grandma and he'll get my grandma a free ticket and me a discount ticket and we'd fly to where ever he's going in Europe and then we'd all spend his 26/38 what ever it is hours in that city and try to fly home!
My grandma is coming because we're flying standby so if there are no tickets for me to get home I don't have to stay there!
(Sorry, it appears we may go golfing!=
(This is my friend from roblox, Woutie :) god how many years have we known each other, 4? maybe 5?)
I am not doing great yori, but that's fine. how're you? :)

I just got super insane don't ask ok -hugs gemmy jam jar-)
I'm trying to figure out how this blog thing works XD I'm not really good at computer stuff so :S What about you? :)
(@Gemmy I presume the usual welcome isn't allowed here due to it being a friend of yours?)
(Con: *smirks looking to sil* usual welcome? ... muhahahah)
you can create a blog account if you want :P :P so you know, you don't message from google plus directly :P I am just talking to you, and watching some poppin videos to boost my creativity, possibly :P YYEEEAHHH I am no less crazy than the guy above me :D
(Hello, Yori.)
Alexandria: I... heard something about a marriage?
Bethany: *she cuddles against her*
Isabelle: *she reforms fully, kissing him again*
Lily: I make too many.
( ok mbd going silverburn will comment from phone... :P)
Onwa: yes, your mother and I are getting married soon.
*strokes her wings gently, smiling*
James: *holds her close, kissing her happily*
Manuel: and do you learn from them?
What's the usual welcome? :3 And oh okay, lemme see if I can create one >.< Oh and hi Crazy Bf? :P *accepts hug* :3
k, should we do the procedure? *smirks*
*offers hug as well* :)

(@Yori something which, apparently, the boys intent to take from me. *sighs* Very well.)
This is why I am dating and not married. These woman terms confuse me.
lol what? :P
I thought the doctor delivered the baby....I feel stupid now.
:P It's fine :D
(Con: I wanted to join in was all ...
Gemmas bf btw case it weren't obv...)
Okay Fera ^^ *hugs* I'm not sure if I want to know what this welcome is anymore tho x.x
it also depends. Like, if it's a C-section, the doctor do do the job :P
woutie: Oh, it's really fun, don't worry! :P *hugs*
Oh, hello new person. Also- Okay so in C-sections its the doctor. Why can't it just be one guy does both ways?!
( it's an RP welcome is all:P
* hugs f * did you finish the paper round? )
that's what she said huhahahuahauahuha....sorry :P Also, because you need to be surgically specialized to operate a C-section :P
(*waves a hand* Please, please. Go ahead. I'm distant anyway.)
*hugs k* nope, haven't even started finishing it...I'll go now i think ^_^
Well you can do the usual welcome if you want. Woutie can RP cause of roblox so go ahead :) and he's not from the UK and doesn't speak english that well so yeah.
Oh you're Gemma's boyfriend? Nice to meet you! ^^
No, I'm Zanida's.

Oh I have to go take a shower soon because I'm going to a concert :( Maybe some other time?
(you misses out crazy but yehp :P
:( the bus has one of those change counters ok well i'm back home so wbld)
Con: *is walking through the woods when he sees the outline of a new person*
*He shadow walks closer and snaps shadows at their back like a whip to get them to run*
okey ^_^ although, i'll be at least 2 hours as well so... :P
gonna go now, bye everyone :) be back after paper rounds :P
(Ah ok then... uhmm you can ignore the shadow whipping if you wish :P )
Bye Frank!
Keiron, Jai, want to continue with our RP from last night? Conductor was looking at them both and Aria was trying to stay still and quiet
Sorry. I have to go, meeting Zan.
(Sure.
Enjoy yourself ward.)
(Con: Yeh sure... )
(your turn Keiron.)
Con: *Is studying them* So your pupils... they dilate too?
Sil: Yep. They dilate. Just like a normal humans. How do you think we can blend in?
(This pasta sucks. Wish i had my super noodles...)
Con: I dunno, just trying to learn thing about vamps...
Why are you so interested in us? you said you don't like how we taste.
Sil: *sips her drink*
The changling has a point.
Con: I dunno, I like knowing things so I can learn your weak spots.
(mbd)
Sil: Mmm. I'd rather you not know out weaknesses.
-laughs- weak spots?
Con: Ok I want to learn how to pick you out from a crowd other than heat signatures.
( really hard to concentrate when on a phonecall and rping soz :P)
Sil: Look for pale skin.
(nps :3)
-looks at her own skin-
-she is very pale already-
*rolls eyes*
Don't be mean to the new guy.
*not really here*
*leaves hugs and cookies for Yori*
Welcome to Blogland!
Gotta go. Bye!
Con: *smirks* I can tell there's no truth to some of the folklore anyway, Garlic and salt were mixed into that sauce.
(Hi/Bye Lav.)
(Bye Lav!)
Sil: *Panicks internally at the mention of salt but doesn't react outwardly*
*the salt levels can't have been dangerous or the liquid would have gone red*
Of course not. They're poppycock.
-glances between Sil and Con-
(But it's fun :P Bye
Con: salts not poison, why would it go red? ... )
Con: *smirks* Good to know... what about steaks or crosses ? *smirks* and not the kind of steak we just had.
(Large amounts of salt are harmful to vampires (I figured it wasn't the water in salt water that'd hard a vampire.)
Sil: *pulls a silver cross from around her neck*
Crosses will do nothing, nor silver. As for a steak to the heart, that can be problematic.
*sighs at the fact that I'm in America and doesn't have the opportunity to go to events*
*explodes sparkles because of too many feels*
*rolls online*
(Con: Yes but would a vile detect it... ? salt itself is not a poison... well actually it is but not conventional poison.)
Con: *looks interested* Fascinating... did you know they used to give a gram of salt per kg of weight to kill someone, yet here we are putting it on our steaks... like it's fun to play with death.((true fact!))
(hi vi *glomps*
Con: *throws darkness at vi and hides in a tree*)
( hi Star too :P *offers hugs*)
(*waves at star*
The vial identifies any poisons that could kill a vampire. It's made from liquified vampire basically. It goes red if the substance would harm a vampire.)
Sil: Interesting.
Yeah. Hi everyone. :)
(damn i like having lots of salt on my chips and stuff...Keiron you see what i'm like at KFC xD)
-still wants to puke from the werewolf, can't wait to get out of here-
-looks around the room and looks for her coat-)
Hey um totally finished the Normandy SR2 model I bought. Er... May have used Blu-Tack maybe. Just a little. But in all fairness the pieces were so damn small like 1mm.
(*waves at draggie*
*grumbles something about hair*)
Sil: Stay seated, Aria.
(Hey Dragona :P)
K: Hi! *glomps* How be you?
Con: *bursts through the shadows with rainbows and skips over to the tree, pulls Con into hug* HI
Msd. Very probably will disappear, actually
OMG I WAS DOING SO WEEELLLLL
IM IN A SHOW AND FOR LIKE TWO WEEKS IVE BEEN MANAGING TO GET TO BED EARLY SO I CAN GET ENOUGH SLEEP CUZ I HAVE TO WAKE UP EARLY BUT LAST NIGHT-THE NIGHT BEFORE OPENING NIGHT-I STAYED UP LATE
NUUUUUU
(Con: ok :D interesting and fucked up ...
I know... XP it'd be quite a bit of salt though )
Con: So.. I guess I'll let you go. *stand from his chair pushing it under the table and lifts his left arm ushering them to the door* *as he does this Yueri the shark sizes catfish hits the deck and shakes the house a little he stands still as if he didn't notice*
Um yeah Normandy is starship from Mass Effect btw just saying for people who aren't obsessed.
In all fairness
Walked past a shop and there were loads of metal models lile London Eye and cars then there was a model on a stand and I was like hey that looks like Mass Effect but it can't be because nowhere sells them then I saw Normandy SR2 on the side and a packet with a Mass Effect logo on next to it and I was lile HOLY CRAP GOT TO HAVE IT THAT'S SO AWESOME and so I continued instinctively buying Mass Effect things XD
Sil: *stands also*
-Stands and puts her chair under the table-
-reaches for her coat-
(Con: why you so obsessed about your coat... ? it's under the stairs...
I'm hood in the good wbu ? :P whats the show for?
Con:*hugs back grumbling* )
*Yueri hits the deck harder shaking the house and he looks angry* One moment... you can leave if you wish... your coat is under the stairs... don't get lost it leads to my shadow realm... *makes his way to the decking with the plates and some fish food*
*he bends down and touches the glass floor it slides to the side and he empties the contents of the plate washing them in the water and then places a full tub of fish food in the water* Happy? *he pets the beast*
*knows that the Normandy is a starship from Mass Effect simply by talkign to Dragona XD*
(Sorry. Distant.)
XD *HUGS STARFISH*
(Because she's really uncomfortable and wants to leave so that she can be sick)
Thank you.
-takes her coat and puts it on, heading for the door as fast as she can-
Sil: *walks out, leaving aria*
*sighs*
*will be told to turn off iPod, but wishes she could be here*
*sighs again with certain thoughts in her head that are kinda overwhelming her and making her want to explode*
-runs out of the door after sil-
Bye!
Con: *shouts back* BYE!
@Hope: Idk about you, but I just starting keepign a diary a couple of days ago and it's really good for writing down thoguhts in. :)
@Dragona: XD *hugs*
I mean, I can't usually write things very well if I'm not talkign to a person, but I call my diary Future Me and have decided I am writing all of these thoughts to Future Me because Future Me will be interested and want to read them, and that works. XD
-makes her way back to the bar-
-runs in and throws up in the toilet-
-drinks a glass of nectar and feels a lot better-
-her hair looks shiner, she's practically glowing and looks refreshed-
-gets changed into a nightgown and slips into bed-
Diaries and journals are good, but... it's also nice to have it in a place where I know someone else knows how I'm feeling, even if I can't really talk about the subject exactly... I mean, I have Scarlet, but she's still a person in my head, and my future self isn't going to be much help in feeling like I've actually told someone else about my thoughts... It's still me...
But who cares, right? I'll deal, because I've always had to...
Now before my iPod's taken away, I really can't stay more.
*leaves hugs, cookies, and warm tea*
Hope everyone has a good day, or evening, or night. Good night from me...
Just realised that I am sixteen going on seventeen like that girl in Sound of Music.
Started havign an 'omg' moment because she always seemed so old and grown-up when I was watching it when little.
Shared that moment with Lizzie.
We're currently sat going 'omg'.
*nods at Lav :/*
*hugs*
Yeah . . . I always enjoy reading your thoughts, I just thought that a diary might help you like it does me. :) If not, y'know, different people are different.
*takes a hug and a cookie and a cup of tea*
*blows on tea, trying to cool it down*
Good night, Lav. :)
*hasn't seen the sound of music*
*seen The Pacifier though when someone sings 16 going on 17*
@Dragona: Ah, then you won't understand this experience we're having. :P
Probably not XD My dog is sat on my knee sleeping and I'm thirsty but don't want to disturb him um what do I do???
@Dragona: Errrrrrrrr
hmm, you don't have any siblings who will get you a drink, do you . . . ?
Ermmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
if you're really thirsty, get up and get a drink. If you're not that thirsty, just try and deal with it.
Phew my mum came home so my dog started licking her face making me free to get a drink. :)
@Dragona: :) :)
*watching crime things on tv idk why* *is eating a bagel*
I am currently not watchign TV. *gestures to headphones*
*looks at headphones* *thinks about his headphones* *realises there's Mass Effect and he uses his headphones for that* *wants to play Mass Effect 2* XD *is going to play Mass Effect 2* *can still be here though because phones* :)
@Dragona: XD XD
I love how everything comes back to Mass Effect with you. XD
I just use my headphones for music.
They actually only have like a 45cm wire, so it's really annoying. :P I did have an extension cord but it broke a long time ago.
(Heyyyyyyyy)
:) Hey Chloe!
(How art thou?)
Hey Inky. :)
Star ikr. :P
45cm?? 0_0 Mine is 12ft. :) I use mine for listening to music and playing on my PS3 but um it needs a USB as well as 3.5mm jack so probably isn't good for mobiles but laptops and games consoles it's perfect. :)
12ft = 365.76cm btw so yeah much longer than yours. :)
@Chloe: Erm, good, thanks. :) You?
@Dragona: Yep. When I sit up with my headphones plugged into my phone my phone dangles off the ground.
When I plug my headphones into my laptop, I have to crouch down to be able to use them . . . I sometimes tilt the bottom of my laptop up by resting it on my pencil case so I can sit up a bit more and still see the screen.
O_O Woah, that's long.
(Sorry. Was eating.
*hugs Chloe*)
Really late because I'm at rehearsal, but still
K: I'm pretty good, thank you for asking :)
And I'm doing a camp-it's a production of Anything Goes
(*hugs Jai *
Omg there a chance that thousand of students had wrong a level results!
My mum is fuming
I'm getting some remarked)
(*hugs Chloe* Wow that's.. REALLY bad..)
Starfish I have to have a huge blob of wire its so cool XD when I watch a DVD it can go from my tv to my bed. :)
Hey Silente and Violet. :)
@Andviolet: :)
@Chloe: O_O O_O O_O OMG!!
@Dragona: O_O That rocks. O_O O_O
(Hey draggie. How are you? Can you have Soph reply to that email I just sent? I want to know what she thinks.)
Starfish ikr and because of PS3 with wireless controller I can totally play Mass Effect without having to sit up XD
Silente I'm good very very bouncy and very very happy and yeah sure sorry kind of busy she's getting mad at me for it XD
@Dragona: Awesome. :)
That sounds really lazy um.
(Good bouncy and happy are good :) and yeah Ican imagine she is.)
How're you Silente???
(*head hurts *
*HATES wearing glasses*)
@Chloe: :( :( :( If they make your head hurt, they must be not quite right . . .
(No I wear then ecause my head hurts)
(*hugs Chloe* wear glasses if you need them!
@Draggie I'm okay! Somehow not dehydrated yet!)
@Chloe: Oh . . .
(*huggles and muttersi they don't suit me)
@Chloe: :/ Idk, I think the more you wore them the more used to them you'd get and then they'd look fine.
You can also get a ton of different types of glasses . . . I know there's websites where you can put in your face shape adn they tell you which glasses which look best on you.
(*rolls eyes and cuddles close* I'm sure they aren't that bad?)
*apparently has perfect eyes* *is proud*
(I look terrible !)
(@Chloe stop! Being so hard on yourself. It's not good for your health!
Rp?)
Stop being so hard on yourself
It's not good for your health
I know that you can change
So clear your head and come round
Idk take that NOW I HAVE THAT SONG IN MY HEAD THANKS SILENTE
(xD you're welcome draggie)
(Okay
I believe I replied last
I've never liked my glasses)
*hums to Shine* GAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HIPPOPOTAMUS SUPERMAN WHY DID YOU HAVE TO DO THAT???
(You did? Damn. One sec.)
WTF I NEVER TYPED HIPPOPOTAMUS!!! AND NOT SUPERMAN THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO SAY SILENTE GAH MY AUTOCORRECT ONE DAY I'M GOING TO MURDER IT WITH A SPOON AND GIVE IT TO A DONKEY.
(*downs champagne *)
(Hmm. Superman.. I'll take that xD
