Righto, I can finally reveal the details for the A/NZ Down Under Tour. Most of the days will be taken up visiting schools, so I'm only listing the public events which will occur in the evenings and at the weekends.
For the public signings, all you have to do is turn up and I'll sign as much as possible in the time I have- but for the public events, it might be a good idea to contact the bookshop/library/whatever as soon as possible, in order to book a place.
The Ireland and UK details will be posted when I have them.
Oh, and for those of you who entered the little short story competition on the Skulduggery website, I've just read through the finalists (30 of them) and the winners will be announced before the weekend. Some truly great work in there...

«Oldest ‹Older 4601 – 4726 of 4726What, skating?
I don't know, it's like...
I really don't know. I'm a very clumsy person, but when I skate, I have the best time.
It's like I belong on the ice.
I can see the signs now *raises hands dramatically*
Sparky Braginski: Queen of Ice
@Kallie- haha it's cool. Everything is computer generated when this comes out in the cinemas.
...Coke?
*sips it*
I got up at 3:45 yesterday morning for this comp, and I went to sleep at 11:35.
And the best bit is-
I only skated for nine minutes in total yesterday.
Queen of ice?
Bullsh*t.
I came third. don't get too carried away.
Dude. That bites... But it would be worth it, right????
haha. Anyone who's better than me is a Queen/King of Ice.
And besides, I have a lot of faith in people. I'm pretty sure you could do it
Hello! People are setting off fireworks right next door and I keep flinching. I am so very glad you all can't actually see me.
So worth it.
I'm going to take a pick of the trophy.
It's a lovely trophy.
And it's MIIIIIIINE.
Hi Sparky!!! You won a trophy? LUCKY! I wish I could ice skate! All I ever do is fall over on the ice... I'm sure you could have guessed that.
Yes, I could.
Who knows...
I may post a link to a video of me skating.
Maybe.
Woo!!!!!!!
okay, wbd... I've got to catch up on my writing... :D
Still here, though
My dog is spazzing out in my room because the fireworks scare her... Wait, since when does she think she's allowed in here?!
*looks around*
Dammit, she's hiding in here now...
Our fireworks stopped about an hour ago...
Sparky, I wanna see a video of you skating! I think it's so cool to watch other people skate. It makes me wish I could skate so badly...
Hi Kal! I am having fun... Well, at least when my brother isn't in the room I am... :)
Hahaha Kal XD That's awesome.
And Sparky, if you do, pleeeeeeeeeeease send me a link :)
Gotta go now, byyyyyyyeeeeee!!!
Bye Val!
Oh wait... one more thing.,
*tackle hugs Sparky*
Okay, I'm actually gone now!
*groans*
*gets up and brushes self off*
*sits back into the chair*
This chair is comfy.
Almost as comfy as Alfie.
Nothing is quite as comfy as her.
Bye VAL!!!!! *hugs*
Oh.... HEYYY if anyone cares, I have chapter 2 of Legacy out
I'm sorry, if I read it now I won't retain anything.
Sorry Dark.
Sorry, I was distracted by an orange. :D
I'll have to go soon though
It's alright!!!!! :D No harm done :)
(sits down at desk, sharpening knives*
*backs into chair*
Are you sure Dark?
oh. Right :l *sharpens more*
Haha yeah!!!
Good...
Yep :D *yawns* its. LATE.
Eve you still here?
How late?

Oh, well it's only 12... But I was up at 4... Lots of running around. Can't seem to sleep, however.
*collapses*
I'm here.
Hmm. I'd love to be a cat.
*conjures a chair much like the one I'm in*
Sit, it's comfy.
Still not as comfy as Alf, but still comfy.
BAHAHAA LOVE THAT!!!!
@Eve, yeah makin sure you didn't poof. I try to make it a general rule to try and say bye to everyone...
The Alf from MELMACK??? *or however you spell it)
I thought it was funny too Dark...
Sparky, that is so funny xD
...
No...
My friend Alf.
Alfred.
Vulpin.
Or, y'know, her actual name, which is Lauren.
I stick with Alf.
You don't have to say bye to me, Adra. I poof a lot.
Haha oh well.
Yeah. NEVERMIND then about Alf... -________-
*is confused*
Gtg bye!
Bye Eve!
Haha... Alf is an old cartoon... Haha it's great.
I can'y spell for some reason, so...
Bye Eve!!!
Okay.
Ahhh sorry, Sparks and whoever else is here....
I've got to say Vale, though. Finally, I think I can fall asleep. Yay. Thank GOD.
I'll be back on tomorrow, kay!
Seee y'all thennnnnnn!
*hugs for everyone!*
(opens portal, and steps through*
*pokes head back through, just for a moment*
Oh, yeah. And, uh, save 5000 for me, please!!! *doubts that will happen*
BYEE!!!!
*goes back in portal*
Bye Dark!
I'll see what I can do.
*comes in with wet hair* Yes, I got up at half five in the morning and had a shower before,coming on here, that is COMPLETELY normal . . .
Hiya Ink!
How are you?
NOOO, IT WON'T HAPPEN! MWAH HA HA!
Yes Ink, it will.
Dark asked nicely and everything.
Yes Ink, it will.
Dark asked nicely and everything.
I am inky. How are you?
Double post.
Oops.
Tired.
Okay then.

Poor you. At least you got 3rd though.
Poor you. At least you got 3rd though.
Out of nine.
I'm so happy about it.
DAMMIT! Double comment.
. . . Do you think my hair will dry quicker with my dressing gown on top of it or without my dressing gown on top of it?
Although they might not be called dressong gowns in Australia. They almost certsinly won't be in America.
They can be called that here.
On, probably...
I'm not sure.
YOU SHOULD BE HAPPY. YOU GOT 66.666666 . . . PERCENT.
...
I am...
Ah, I'll leave it off. I'm taking courage from the fact that ut has dried a tiny bit in half an hour with it off. I mean, a tiny bit is still something, isn't it?
Yeah, I s'pose.
. . .
. . . YOU ARE:)
:)
:)?
:)???
Whoa.
Tilted smily.
:) I am the Queen of Tilted Smilies.
*tries and fails to do a titled smily irl*
*placea banana on face in a titled-smily position* SEE? I HAVE A TITLED SMILY! SEE???? *whilst shouting, banana falls inside mouth*
MMH! MM-MM-M . . . *spits banana put, coughing and choking*
Okay . . . I'm not very good at titled smilies.
*says quick payer to the Banana Lord before proceeding to nom the considorably squished banana*
*out
I think I might upgrade Eve to Banana Queen . . .
Back, sorry...
WB Sparky!
Hello Ink.
Hello Sparky.
...
When I was gone I got so used to not being called Sparky.
When I came back it was startling.
How are you Ink? Other than inky, of course.
Er . . . Annoyed at myseld. Coz I just discovered that my hair DOES dry quicker with the dressing gown on top of it.
Told you.
You did. And I should have listened. It's dried more in fifteen minutes with the dressing gown on top of it then it has in an hour with the dressing gown off.
*gives Sparky a banana as a prize*
*gives the banana back*
I... Don't like bananas...
*gasps* EVE WILL BE OFFENDED.
*gives Sparky banana-shaped yellow apple instead*
*hands that back too*
Not hungry.
*gives Sparky banana-shaped bit of woid that is mysterioualy yellow*
*wood
*hands it back*
Nothing banana shaped... Please...
:( But I am the Banana Lord's loyal optopus servant!
The loyal octopus servant who has to go now, but may bbs! Fours!
Bye Ink!
I'm here for, like, five minutes...

Spiderman... My favourite superhero of all time. Toby or Andrew, they're both awesome.
Although I was a TEENSEY WEENSEY bit disappointed when I found out the new Spidey couldn't fling webs from his wrists. But the little gadgets are cool.
If you're asking, I just watched the Amazing Spiderman. He's so amazing...
Hmmm cheerios!!!
Hello again
Hi Eve! *hides*
Hows this morning treating you?
Well, since it's only about 1 in the morning, all I've done this morning is get home, take a shower, and go on the internet.

I love this video so much... TIME TRAVEL!
*pulls out scalpel* Hello!!
It's 5:44pm for me!
Hmmm... I feel as though there's something wrong with the fact that my ankle has started bleeding again...
*samples the blood*
*smacks Eve's hand away and wraps a bandage around the cut* *scowls at Eve*
You really like to take every opportunity to sample my blood, don't you?
Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees
