I had a request to start a blog where you could weigh in on thoughts about a movie based on The Merchant of Death and to discuss casting. This isn’t to say that a movie is imminent. It isn’t. But I’m working with some folks to develop one now, so you never know. (Just don’t hold your breath!)
So, here’s the blog. Have fun.

It was funny, because we went on a field trip to a museum the same day as my party. They all avoided me, and I spent the whole day with my friend Brandon. Then I got to the party, and they all screamed surprise. The first thing I said was, “I knew it!” and then I was like shaking because they scared me, and they all laughed at me…. you got hit by a Chevy??

@silvermisty
Yeah it was a fun birthday! You need to go iceskating! It’s so fun! And my “surprise” party was entertaining!
Courtney Chetwynde says:
Lol the only time i go to iceskating is when im on a cruise.

@ Flume of Doom
It’s a pretty good story. I only skimmed it, but from what I read, it really did seem good.
And yes I did have a really busy b-day.
Batu Warrior says:
I have never been iceskating…. I have only been roller skating once….. Very sad.
Flume of Doom says:
Who’s ready for the sequel, “Slick Mo Two Toe Rides Again”?
We’ve not really even started it yet, but from the plot sketches, I think it will be even funnier than the first one.
Quig Pig says:
Hiya, civilians of the Realm!
It just ain’t fair that my character had to die and my evil twin’s gets to mysteriously survive for the sequel…
Who votes for Newt Soapointyhook to mysteriously survive…somehow…too?
Or maybe I’ll get to write the part for Crazy Bert ‘O Brian…
EelongCatfolk says:
@Batu Warrior
Sounds like your day went well ^-^ and yes, I got hit by a Chevy….idiot driver >-< lol
@Quig Pig
I say Newt should come back. I also think Needa should somehow be alive, too. Throw a twist at your readers ^-^ As a writer, that's what I would do lol
Courtney Chetwynde says:
@eelong catfolk
Wernt u hit by 2 cars
Batu Warrior says:
@Eelong Catfolk
Well….. you get hit by cars a lot. Cars don’t like you.
I have nothing to do tonight, since my moms boyfriend is coming over, (ugh) she’s banishing me to the basement with my laptop and the t.v. And I’m going to steal some food…. Well tonight is gonna suck…..
Holly says:
Aww that does stink. I have to go to a church thing tonight cuz my moms making me. 🙁
SilverMisty says:
hey guys…
i’m stuck here doing hw…
@Batu Warrior: maybe you could invite some friends over? or if you can’t, there’s always us. 🙂 and…if you have movies, you can watch those—I would really like to watch awesome movies in the basement. (or via internet)
SilverMisty says:
@Batu Warrior: oh…wait. scratch that. (the thing about your friends coming over)
Challenger Black says:
@Batu warrior
Yeah, I agree with SilverMisty. Try and make the most of it, watch some movies, maybe do some reading, and like Misty said…there’s always us 🙂
Challenger Black says:
@SilverMisty
Same here. I’ve pretty much always got homework on the weekends, but I still make sure to find time for other stuff, including coming on here 🙂
SilverMisty says:
@Holly: if you don’t have one already, you could start youth nights—so you can have fun w/other teens while having church meetings with them
SilverMisty says:
@Challenger Black: same here 🙂
SilverMisty says:
@Challenger Black: I think it would be cool if we all collaborated on a story.
Challenger Black says:
@SilverMisty
That’d be awesome. I’d be all up for that.
SilverMisty says:
ditto 🙂
was doing some hw…
Batu Warrior says:
Thanks guys 🙂 it’s really weird, all my brothers are out, and it’s really weird when her boyfriend is over…. lol. Nooooo my laptop is almost out of battery! O.O
BuggyReality says:
Hey guys.
SilverMisty says:
Hey!
BuggyReality says:
What’s new?
SilverMisty says:
nothing much…just studying ahead for my tests this week.
SilverMisty says:
what about you?
BuggyReality says:
Same nothing much. I’m so glad that my testing week is over 🙂 Less stress and time to look forward to my midwinter break.
SilverMisty says:
I had finals right before winter break.
Anyways, a stress reliever for me is listening to great songs. (that’s what I did yesterday for a break)
SilverMisty says:
the only break I’m looking forward to is summer 🙂
(spring break = more time to study for exams)
BuggyReality says:
Sounds relaxing 🙂
SilverMisty says:
sorry…had to go out.
BuggyReality says:
No one has posted in like a day. Is everyone still alive? 😀
Batu Warrior says:
Haha I’m alive, I just don’t know what to say. I mean, I could tell you about this guy I like, but I don’t think you want to hear about that…. lol 🙂
Courtney Chetwynde says:
Lol im alive and i could tell you about the guy i like too but same with batuwarrior u prob dont want to hear about it
SilverMisty says:
someone give me a lifesaver! 🙂 jk.
so…what’s up, guys?
SilverMisty says:
@Batu Warrior and Courtney: I would want to hear about it except that I don’t think others would want to.
Batu Warrior says:
@ Silver Misty
Well, you might not even want to, because I’m obsessed. I could go on and on and on…… 🙂
SilverMisty says:
@Batu Warrior: 😛
EelongCatfolk says:
@Courtney and Batu Warrior
I got hit by two cars the year before that happened XD lol Yeah, I don’t know why they hate me though *stares into space ponderously for a second* oh well lol
Anyway, tell us about the guys you two like ^-^ We wants to know.
@Silver Misty
I agree, that would be awesome ^-^
@Buggy Reality
Did you hear what D.J. MacHale told Courtney? (She Posted it A few days back, about 2-3 pages ago.
Quig Pig says:
You was walkin down the street,
got hit by a car,
Looked for food to eat
and ran in to a bar.
The bouncer o he say
O my BEEEP o what a fail,
You say you had bad day
And he call the county jail.
You look at your flat feet,
You hear the sirens blare,
You see the cops off down the street,
who you give an angry glare.
One shoots you with his gun
He think it all a dream,
Until you say it’s done,
and do the Wilhelm Scream!
Batu Warrior says:
@ Eelong Catfolk and SilverMisty
Haha okay lol. Do you remember when I was freaking out because of the Oliver tryouts? Well, I got in, mostly because they need me to dance. And this guy I like, happens to be in Oliver. As Oliver. His name is Will….. It took me a while, but he finally knows who I am. I like him because he is weird like me! lol….. I guess if you want to know any more ask. 😀
Courtney Chetwynde says:
Well the guy i like is this kid who moved here from britian like 4 years ago so he still has his accent. I like him because he is one of the few guys in my grade that can make me laugh no matter what and he isnt an idiot. Even when we r texting he makes me laugh and smile.
Holly says:
@silvermisty
Yeah we already have a youth group at my church but it’s super boring and not fun. And the only people that go are like 6th graders. But the church thing I had to go to the other night was actually kind of fun! 😀
SilverMisty says:
@Holly: great 🙂 in your case, you can be the leader of your youth club and try to make meetings fun. (think creatively and you can always search up ways)
@Batu Warrior: I want to know more about it…but it might be weird to others.
anyways…it always seems like Will is a great name for a guy (did you notice that most books with characters who have the name Will tend to be the hero and have great personalities?)
in real life, the ppl who I know well who have that name are smart and generally likeable. So…hope that you guys turn out to be great friends 🙂
@Courtney: most importantly, a guy that makes you happy = 😀
so…hope it also turns out well between you two
@EelongCatFolk: the cars thing was probably just a coincidence. That most likely isn’t going to happen again. (hopefully…but we’re hoping for the best 🙂
@Quig Pig: that poem seemed random 🙂
Batu Warrior says:
@ SilverMisty
I know! I’ve always liked that name too. It’s just so perfect… I don’t even think he knows my name yet. It’s this joke though, he’s guessed it a bunch, but never gotten it right. I doubt he’ll ever guess it. No one ever guesses Maggie lol.
@ Courtney Chetwynde
Oh my gosh, I love guys with british accents….. 😀
Quig Pig says:
I can do a Dutch accent:
Methinks it would not seem so random if such as you looketh and saw that the other citizens hadst been conversing about becoming flattened by the automobiles!
Flume of Doom says:
Oh the moral of this story is the point we hope we’ve made,
If you go a little loopy, better keep your nurse well paid!
Flume of Doom says:
I got a song
for your bear trapped teddy
he’s got gangrene,
and he’s gonna die…
But if I sing
to your bear trapped teddy
he’ll feel better,
And he won’t know why!
EelongCatfolk says:
@Flume of Doom & Quig Pig
Do you make this all up as you go, or is it something you’ve planned ahead?
@Batu Warrior
lol I might have….maybe >->’ Anyway, I hope you and Billiam get along
@Courtney
Like SilverMisty said (in effect), if he makes you happy, stick with him.
@SilverMisty
I don’t know….a lot of weird things happen to me for apparently no reason, but later end up having a reason.
Layne says:
I enjoyed the the books and I REALLY hope that a movie is made soon!
