Duly noted! And perfect timing, as I'm in the middle of writing the script for not only Blossoms, but my little forum event idea. Be sure to keep an eye out for my Rick Astley characters in their respective stories >w>

I'm just wondering what Neopet Rick Astley would be. Or if Twillie makes them an owner, what sorts of Neopets they'd own.

Well, I finished my story last night! Now, Moni, you can have your blender back.

Is anybody else doing nano this year? I looked and didn't see a dedicated nano thread/board, like there used to be. I'm running for the tenth year in a row (last year was the first year I managed to win, but my computer borked the whole document so I lost everything)

Or whatever word count you decide to aim for.

I want to write a story for the Valentines issue, but since it's now two weeks away, I wonder if it'll be reviewed/accepted in time.
As of now, the Christmas story I sent in early December STILL hasn't received a reply.

Is there any way you can turn it into a series with a couple of parts? Then you'd have a better shot of it even being seen before the issue. You could write it now and save it to send it in, like, next November, for next year... or save your writing juice for the next themed issue you want to participate in.

I wish there was a way I can add fire to my submission; surely that'll grab attention! At my pace, I don't know if I can warp it into a series. May need to save it for next year if it gets rejected/ignored, since the world's too cruel to the most beautiful Snaw in the world.

Something I noticed: I seem to go through more revisions with stories nowadays than I used to. I keep changing something halfway through, or altering the plot. (Note that I have been away from the NT for about six years.)
The old NT series idea I had for YEARS in my brain without writing it down has undergone so many tweaks and I managed to add a failed story idea into it. By "failed story idea" I mean something that couldn't quite bloom into a short story but would work better as a kind of side plot or gag.

Why must the two series I'm working on be at Part 8?
What is it with working on the 8th Part of a series that I go 'ooh, time to procrastinate for weeks!'??

Will y'all just collectively kick my butt and make me write, please. Haven't written in months, considering launching my collective works into the sun, send help (and/or funding in order to launch my collective works into the sun)

En garde?

I'll give you all a kick as well, since I could use one myself xP If we all give each other friendly pushes, we'll get to the finish line eventually!
