Reviews for one of my worst short stories and most pointless ever, Lack of Inspiration, will be rewarded with free tickets to Hogsmeade. I shall do my short not-so-in-depth revies later.

Don't Eat Sloth's Fish! by nut862 - I do love a good Sloth conspiracy theory. A good subject, a ludicrous theory, and sloth and fish and the cooking pot. Very good! Easy to read, amusing. A couple small grammar problems, but nothing major. I like this!
A Day Off With Lawyerbot by shadowcristal - A story about Lawyerbot! I liked all of the "coughillgetsued" one-liners, and what Lawyerbot ate. There were some interesting parts, but for the most part, it lacks any sort of experiences. It is not THAT amusing, and had no conflict to make up for it. Overall, a decent article.
MORE Happy Home Hunting by year_of_the_fox - I rarely say this about articles. Particularly articles that are only dialogue. But I LOVED this article. It was funny and informative, it captured my attention, and the character voices are done VERY well. All around, excellent job! Is this guy on NTWF?[/u]
Cool (and Cheap) Toys to Buy for your Neopets by lissie1118 - Big 'ol props to the author for making a list entertaining! While all were cheap as far as toys go, there were still several price ranges. She picked toys of many different types, and just did a really good job all around.
Weed It and Reap: a Beginner's Guide to Neogardening by pk_fire14 - Oh. My. Gosh. I have found my FAVORITE Neopian columnist ever. He is HYSTERICAL! I hate Neogardens, I wasn't even going to read this! But it's SO good! He has an evil wit that reminds me of Douglas Adams (Hitchhiker author dude.) It's full of silly paragraphs, one-liners, and bits like this:
What Started as a Day in Terror Mountain... by actress_to_be17 - The opening paragraphs were very promising, but once it hit the dialogue, it lost all charm. There was nothing happening, no controversy, no mystery. Nothing.

Time for a few not so in depths thirty second reviews before I go to bed!
The Haunted Playground by shadowcristal--Uber spiffy. I was dying of laughter by the end!
Another Type of "Lost" by animalnutz1993--I thought this story was cut, but extremely choppy and rather annoying written in places...but decent enough.
Bloaty Belly Be Gone by hermionechochang--Teh spiff. The characters were fairly well portrayed, and I enjoyed the story tons, especially since I read it at 10:40 at night and had no trace of a stomachache.

*gasp* It's out early!!! Aaah, I still have to do reviews on the old issue! Any reviews for my slightly crazy article (which I wrote for fun XD), Don't Eat Sloth's Fish! would be great! (My article was mentioned on the News page--w00t!) www.neopets.com/ntimes/index.phtml?section=138857&issue=213*gasp* Reviewed already! Thank you so much!  *hands out cookies* I didn't realize I'd made grammar errors...*plans to scrutinize article* Then again, I've come to the realization that my own knowledge of grammar may be slightly flawed. I should read up on it. |

Tashni: You're right about that... It's kind of dry humor, nothing really fun. My article writing has detoriated quite a bit :/ Landen: Glad you liked it. I thought it up while playing tennis, oddly enough... Do you believe in ghosts? |

And now for some more not-so-in-depth reviews!
MORE Happy Home Hunting by year_of_the_fox (and Fj0rdy-poo)
"And rocks. There are plenty of those there"
"Pfft. Breathing is for wimps."
"B-but...Whaa... Food poisoning... and… and being kicked out! IT WASN'T MY FAULT DONNA DIDN'T SHOW UP! "
I loved it I loved it I loved it and I usually despise articles with all my being! Neopets must create more worlds so you two can write another one of these!
I Dare you by candykitty--A decently written story, but definitely not one of my favorites.
What Started as a Day in Terror Mountain... by actress_to_be17--Okay. *twitch*

Weed It and Reap was funny. Many thanks for pointing me to it!
Chronicles of the Court Rogue: Rivalry by Nimras is still fun. *grin* Meeting and getting along with Lisha is definitely nice.
I'm not sure the author of Darigan's Truce is around here, but I still like it. I have to admit, as much as I like Lord Darigan, the idea of his singing strikes me as very odd. (This doesn't mean there's anything wrong with it. It's just not something I'd considered about the character.)
The flashbacks so far seem more vivid than the present action, perhaps because of the intensity of what's going on during them. I'm still charmed that Sally's family got brought in during the present, though. *grin*
Comics... I find myself strangely inspired to try creating one, although I suspect I would be setting myself up for disappointment.
Ghostkomori's made me snicker. I liked it.
