This isnt really a problem, but do you think I should send Felicia a message regarding a story that was rejected? She was going to give me some tips on improving it and she asked some questions. I sent a reply like a week ago but I haven been replyed too.
ummmm....yeah.

Okay, not a problem, but a question out of the Cheshire Cats amazing curioustity. When you send a article/story/comic/series for the Neopian Times in one week, is it possible to be in that weeks issue? A week after I sent my first article in, I noticed that it needed where more editing. So I edited it, sent it in, and that week my EDITTED version was in the Times for that week. But mny people have told me that you must wait two weeks before you issue gets in the Times. Er, in other words--how long do you have to wait after you sent your story/article/comic/series for it to get in the Times if it's good enough?

"Also by Tdyans" needs to be added to the "Something Has Happened" comic in Issue 80, and neither that comic nor the one in Issue 78 show up in a search for my username.
I also think that my trophy count is off, but I need to check that and get back about it...

I sent a reply like a week ago but I haven been replyed too. ummmm....yeah. Hrm, I messaged Felicia once, and then on the second letter, she didn't reply, but she did help So why don't you just edit like she told you (if you hadn't already) and send it in! ^__^ Umm... I have 29 extra trophies... 0.o *SNORT* ._. *laughs*

I haven't been here in awhile (I should rightfully be sleeping now), and this situation probably won't be altered, but someone Neomailed be asking about the "cliff ending" of my story in the Times this week, The Neorvette (why Felicia put that in, I have no idea). And I saw that it cuts off the ending and says "The End" right in the middle. I know the content was a bit...odd...but if you're going to put in a Jamez fic, it's all or nothing. If anyone cares, here's the ending:
<p>"I think we should return the car," Six75 shouted nervously. He was pinned to the back of his seat because his owner, jamezbfod, had the pedal to the metal at a constant 247 Neokilometers an hour.</p>
<p>"Oh, Six, you're so forgiving." </p>
<p>Suddenly, flashing blue and red lights appeared and a siren went off. They were being chased by the Chia Police. </p>
<p>"Wow, look at those officers go," Jamez marveled. "They must be going two hundred and fifty Neomiles an hour."</p>
<p>"Jamez, we use the metric system here!" Six replied nervously.</p> <p>"All right, then, two hundred and fifty Neokilometers an hour. Or however that conversion system works."</p>
<p>"JAMEZ!" Six exclaimed. "Stop!"</p>
<p>Jamez did so--and just in time. The Chia Police officers were tailgaiting him, and nearly crashed into Nigel's car while trying to stop. </p>
<p>Jamez sadly looked to Six. "Forgive me, buddy," he whispered. He closed his eyes, and dumped a sack of Chia Flour over himself.</p>
<p>An officer, sharply dressed in a well-ironed uniform, walked over to Nigel's car. "Er...hello, Nigel. Driving without clothes again, I presume?"</p>
<p>Jamez the Chia sighed. "Yes, officer." He didn't wear a sleek business suit like Nigel did, and his human clothes were hidden on the floor of the car.</p> <p>"Did you know that your car was reported stolen?"</p>
<p>"Yes, um, officer, but I found it again."</p>
<p>The officer suspiciously looked over to Six. "And who is this Blue Shoyru?" he asked Jamez the Chia.</p>
<p>"Oh...I'm his friend Seven," Six lied. </p>
<p>"Uh-huh." The Chia officer shrugged and walked back to his car. </p>
<p>"That was close," Six sighed. "But Jamez, how are you going to turn back?"</p>
<p>"Meh," Jamez replied, putting his foot on the pedal.</p>
<p>"Seriously, Jamez--here's our house now. Let's pull up by leb388's place. She'll know what to do." Leb388 was jamezbfod's sister, and a good problem-solver when it came to Jamez's foibles in and around Neopia.</p>
<p>"Aw, fine, dude." He pulled into leb388's driveway.</p>
<p>"Hey, Six!" leb388 called, coming out. When she saw the Yellow Chia sitting next to him, she was puzzled.</p> <p>"Hey, Laura-Beth. Sorry about the short notice. We'll move the car if it's blocking your driveway," came jamezbfod's voice from the Chia's mouth.</p>
<p>"Jamez, are you a CHIA? And driveway? What driveway?" Suddenly she gasped in horror as the realization sunk in. "MY GARDEN!"</p>
<p>Her wails were droned out by a sudden siren. In no time, a Chia Police car swerved onto leb388's lawn.</p>
<p>"Hands in the air!" a Chia Police Officer called. Nigel the Chia appeared out of the car.</p>
<p>"MY NEORVETTE!" he wailed. "You foolish Neopians!"</p>
<p>"Go, Jamez. I can take them," Six mumbled to Jamez. </p>
<p>"Only if you go too!" Jamez whispered back.</p>
<p>They both nodded, opened their doors, and slipped out of the car.</p>
<p>Nigel didn't notice two pets tiptoeing off from his car, and instead turned his attention elsewhere. "Who are you?" Nigel demanded of leb388, stamping his foot. "Aren't you that girl who was bothering me earlier today? I want my Neorvette!"</p>
<p>"Excuse me, Miss, but what's going on here?" an officer asked leb388, who was trying to save her lost flowers. "Aren't you a Times author or something?"</p>
<p>"And free-lance gardener," she sniffled. "The Pant Devil came by, apparently with Nigel's car, and ruined my beautiful flowers! Then he vanished!" leb388 let out a few sobs.</p>
<p><i>Dude, she's good,</i> Six thought as he and Jamez sneaked into her house. <i>The Chia Police won't touch the Pant Devil.</i></p>
<p>"How did you know it was my car?" Nigel asked leb388.</p>
<p>Leb388 simply pointed to the license plate: STOCKZ. "I knew about Nigel, the Stock-Market Chia, and his famous car," she added, trying not to laugh. "Never thought my poor flowers would go under its wheels!" She sobbed more, this time sincerely.</p>
<p>Everything was settled, and the Chia Police went away, with leb388 surveying her garden. No damage was done; the plants were withering in the frost anyway. But she wasn't about to tell anyone that.</p>
<p>Nigel took the car and went back to his office, so leb388 went back inside to find out what jamezbfod and Six were doing.</p>
<p>"Jamez, why are you a Chia?" leb388 moaned.</p>
<p>"Um...no reason. Got any omelette? Preferably plain." Jamez stood up from sifting through leb388's NeoFridge.</p>
<p>"Uh, I think so," leb388 replied uneasily, looking through her Neofridge. "Here we go--Plain Omelette. It's three days old, though."</p>
<p>But Jamez had already scarfed down the entire slice. He magically returned to his normal humanoid form, and all was well.</p>
<p> Meanwhile, Nigel sat in his office. Magically, a new Neopian Times for that week appeared featuring the headline AUTHOR'S GARDEN RUINED BY CAR.</p>
<p>200,000 Neopoints trickled down through the "Neopoint" mailbox, and Nigel smiled. "How is everything going, Johnny?" he asked his assistant.</p>
<p>"Great, sir. THE MARKET COULD CRASH AT ANY MOMENT!"</p>
<p>Nigel's smile grew wider. Just another day in this small world called Neopia. Just another day in the life of Nigel the Chia.</p>

Part One of "Celestilla's Big Scoop" Didn't have a "part one" in the title, but I don't know if that matters. Also, Part Two has been indexed but is linked back to part one. I don't know if this is a mistake or what.
