How To Train A Grarrl In 10 Days - Series Self-explanatory...No. It just doesn't sound like something I'd be interested in reading. No. I'm not into stamps. Yes. I liked the first one. Yes. I liked the Overdoing Your Shop one. Maybe. It depends on whether I've got a lot of time on my hands or not. I'm not into the Mystery Pic, but I'm not against it either. Yes. It looks interesting. Probably, but mostly because I tend to read all articles about shops, restocking, and the like. Bargain hunting (like most aspects of shops) has been so overdone it's generally barely palatable, but it can still be edible if the writing style adds the right spices to cover it. (Ooh, metaphor!) Just barely on the 'probably not' side of 'maybe'--I might and I might not. It depends. I doubt it, but maybe. It just doesn't look like the kind of thing I like to read. I kinda doubt it...see above. Probably not. I'm not fond of 'book adaptions'. I dunno if I'll read them--if they're a parody, it depends on how well they're written. If they aren't, I won't; I'm not into detective stories. Sorry I probably wouldn't read so many of them; I'm really picky about the short stories and series I read...other people will probably be interested.

How To Train A Grarrl In 10 Days - Series Self-explanatory...Sounds funny. As a stamp collector, possibly, but complaining about the high costs (of just about everything in Neopia) doesn't appeal to me so much-- however, I don't know what your approach will be. If you can really find significantly more to say on the subject, sure. Definitely-- needed. If it has some genuinely helpful tips, then definitely. Eh, maybe, but I wouldn't be running to read it. Same as above. Could be good. Anything with Moehogs gets my instant stamp of approval. ;D Eh, I feel lukewarm about this one. The title of that book has always disturbed me a bit, but it might be interesting to find out what it's all about... Again, anything Moehog sounds good to me. The Lupes of Buzzkerville could be intriguing also...

How To Train A Grarrl In 10 Days - Don't think so...I dunno, it just doesn't sound very...WOW...to me. Stamp Costs (change title) - Almost everything has an outrageous price! I don't think this would make for a great piece... Overdoing Your Shop 2 - Good, but I don't know how much more you can cover... Overdoing Your Userlookup - Yes, sounds nice. How To Find The Mystery Pic Answer - I don't know...it depends on how much content it has. The Predictability of Usernames (change title) - I don't see how this is a topic you can really run free with...it just seems like you can easily run out of ideas. Bargain Hunting - I think this has been done before, but it's nice. Quigcles the Great - I think I'd read this... The Moetrix - I wasn't really into the Matrix to begin with. I'd read it, though. Puff the Magic Draik - Er...no offense, but you're really going crazy with these parodies, aren't you? Nasty Lenny - I'd read it. AND NOW FOR THE UPCOMING SHANKLY HOLMES STORIES: Tell me if the titles appeal to you: Island of Dr. Moeroo - Nice The Case of the Poogle Poachers - Nice The Lupes of Buzzkerville - Good! The Case of the Counterfeit Juppies - Sounds interesting! The Case of the PetPet Clones - Okay, I guess. The Case of the Jelly Ray - PolarCHUNK V.3.0 - PolarChunk? Sounds like a breakfast cereal! Wockson's Wedding - I don't know if a wedding will get into the NT, but it sounds like a good read. Shankly Holmes's Tropical Vacation - Of course! Everybody needs a tropical vacation! That reminds me, I need to start thinking up a plot for "Magnolia - Queen of the Surf". Anyways, overall, this stuff sounds great. I can't wait to read it all!

How To Train A Grarrl In 10 Days - Series Could be funny, but it's not a title I'd naturally turn to.Stamp Costs (change title) - Article Yes, prices are outrageous. The prices of EVERYTHING are insane. I wouldn't read this because it sounds like it'd be just another whining article about something we can't do anything about.Overdoing Your Shop 2 - Article The first one had good points. Can you be creative enough to come up with more? If so, go for it!Overdoing Your Userlookup - Article This would say basically the same thing that you went over in Overdoing your Shop. Don't do a rehash.How To Find The Mystery Pic Answer - Article Could be helpful, if a bit obvious.The Predictability of Usernames (change title) - Article Yes! I like this idea! Go go go for it! Bargain Hunting - Article Again, self-explanatory. No article needed.Quigcles the Great - Series Nifty. For some reason this idea really appeals to me. The Moetrix - Series?? I couldn't even understand the movie, so at least for me, this is out.Puff the Magic Draik - Short Story You'd have to be careful not to make this a ripoff, but this sounds like it could be funny.Nasty Lenny - Short Storry Errr... no.As for the Shankley Holmes stories, I like the Case of the PetPet Clones, Wockson's Wedding (if they'll let you do it) and PolarCHUNK v.3.0. Best of luck!

Best of luck! Basically, I agree. And remember about parodies. Don't those rules say something about paraodies? Not to do too many probably. Puff the Magic Draik, the Moetrix and How to Train a Grarrl in 10 Days are parodies. The Grarrl would probably be different, but the other too seem similar to the original. Plus you said something about the title of the thread giving you another idea. Another parody. And you mentioned something a little while ago about the Buzzbournes. Don't know if that's still in the making. But it's a parody too.

How To Train A Grarrl In 10 Days - Meh. Sounds like it coule be funny, but it's not something I'd be falling over myself to read.
Stamp Costs (change title) - No offense, but it sounds pointless. Everything is outrageously expensive, and whining isn't going to do any good.
Overdoing Your Shop 2 - Personally, I can't think of anything more you could add, but if you can, go for it! Be careful not to repeat yourself, though.
Overdoing Your Userlookup - Yes. Very good.
How To Find The Mystery Pic Answer - I could use this...heh. If you can give some good tips, yes!!
The Predictability of Usernames (change title) - Sounds interesting!
Bargain Hunting - Blah. Way too overdone. I can't imagine you'd have anything to say that hasn't ever been said...so probably no. Go for it if you really can think of something original, though....
Quigcles the Great - Perhaps. Sounds kind of cool.
The Moetrix - Not something I'd read. Nope.
Puff the Magic Draik - I think I'd probably read it....
Nasty Lenny - I'm not into those things. Probably not.
Shankly Holmes - Can't say. I didn't read the first as I'm not into detective stories at all, so....

The Moetrix - Series?? I couldn't even understand the movie, so at least for me, this is out.This from the girl who wrote a Neopets story inspired by the Allegory of the Cave?!

*Grins* I know, but I'm just weird like that - I love getting into philosophical issues, I can argue religion and existence with you all day... but I just couldn't get the hang of the Matrix. Maybe I'll try to see the movie again, though.

Maybe I'll try to see the movie again, though. I like philosophy, etc., and I loved the Matrix. There's not a piece of it I don't understand... It fits together so beautifally; like a matrix. I own it, and I can't wait to see the second and third... Not sure how someone like you couldn't understand it. You should rent it again, maybe...

Puff the Magic Draik probably won't happen--it was just a whim, as was The Moetrix (i've never seen the Matrix, anyways!)
But the others, I'd be interested in writing.....
THANKS FOR YOUR THOUGHTS!
