I resumitted my Christmas entry (was supposed to be in the Christmas issue 2 years ago, resubmitted too late last year) and I just got the "wrong category" rejection. Which is better than an outright rejection, but.... I don't remember what category I put it in, nor am I sure which it should be in. My GUESS is I submitted as an article and it should have been story. But I'm not sure. I'm kind of afraid I won't get a response back in time if I try emailing NT_editor, but I could try that. Any other suggestions?

And... Never mind. Just by looking at the submission page, I was able to figure out I submitted it as a article. I resubmitted it as a short story, and send a neomail to nt_editor. Hoping it's accepted in time now.

Ah, I was about to suggest you submit it under both, since there's a time crunch, but it sounds like you've got it figured out. Best of luck! Meanwhile, I'd like to do a Dinner with the Scarlets comic this holiday, so I'm on a time crunch myself. Comics have a faster turnaround, at least. I know that Geo 🇺🇦 🌻 has had that happen too, an article was rejected for being in the wrong category. I guess that's just how the editor is. Makes me wonder if The Villain's Editorial would have been classified as a short story by the current editor: www.neopets.com/ntimes/index.phtml?section=558660&week=634

I need to write up a quick Christmas story to solidify my status as Queen of the NT. Unfortunately I still have another one in NT limbo, and I need to hear back from that one before I can begin!
