Howdy guys! I just joined because....

Howdy!

I just recently joined these forums because my first ever submission into the Neopian Times' was accepted and published (A Day in the Life of the Tombola Man!). I thought that since I'm thinking about writing more for the NT I should join and see what other writers like to write about and let them see what I like to write about!

I'm aiming to get 10 short stories published in the Neopian Times someday and also maybe try and get a story into one of the 00's or 50's NT edition to get that avatar as well!


I'm happy to be here and I look forward to meeting and learning from you all and getting to know you, as well as you getting to know me!

If you have any questions feel free to ask and I'll answer anyone I can about myself (on or off Neo)! =)

Thank you,

Dusty (werelupe_zap)

Hi Dusty! I read your short story; it was nice. I like to make comics mostly, myself.

Do you have an idea for your next short story?

[werelupe_zap]

I've got an idea that I'm thinking about doing, a kind of continuation of one of the parts of the Tombola man story, I'll send it to you in a message and see what you think about it. =)

Hello! I'm Allison. I mostly lurk, and pretend I actually belong here. lol Nah. I feel like I belong here. I just don't actually write for the NT (or join any other creative contests) save for once a year, if that.

Aloha! I am Snaw, ruler of fabulousness!

Major congrats on getting in the NT!!!! Hope you continue writing fun stories and that you make all your NT dreams come true!

Hello and welcome to the NTWF!

Also, congratulations! It always feels great to get accepted into the NT, but the very first time is a special moment, I think. :D

Hi Allison, Snaw, and Killix! Nice to meet you all, thank you for the warm welcome!

Also thank you for all the congratulations as well, it was pretty shocking to get accepted! That knowledge of having the skills to be accepted, just drives me more to create neat stories for my fellow Neopians to be entertained with! ^___^

I'm working on outlining my next story now.

Hey Dusty, welcome =D Big congrats on your NT story, I'll be sure to give it a read this weekend and let you know how I liked it!

What kind of stories in general do you like to write? Is the Tombola Man a favorite site character of yours? For myself, I've been making a comic series for the NT, inspired by my love for spooky mystery and goofy slice of life and the combination of the two x3
