New Neopian Times Editor!!

[Stephanie (swordlilly)]

From this week's Neopian Times:

Hello Neopian Times readers! My name is Aesop and I just wanted to formally introduce myself as the newest member of The Neopets Team! I first played Neopets as a kid back in 2004 and was simply enthralled with the world of Neopia. Although I took some time off from gaming to focus on school, I never forgot the many hours I poured into Neopets. Which is why I was thrilled to have the opportunity to become part of TNT! Over the past month or two, I have been helping out best I can and learning a lot along the way. My primary duties involve running spotlights/contests, coming up with content ideas for daily site activities/events, and putting together the Neopian Times which has been a blast! As an avid reader and writer myself, I love reading through your submissions and exploring the characters and stories that your writing and artwork brings to life. I have been extremely impressed with the talent and passion you all bring to Neopia and will strive to do my very best to bring you the content you deserve! -Aesop

I wish Aesop the best. And now I feel embarrassed about all the submissions I dumped into the form for him to look at I'M SO SORRY AESOP I AM JUST EXCITED TO BE BACK

hi there TNT! I'd like to know if my entries for Neopian times and Poetry was received, i sent my poem in february and never got answered, also send a series for neopian times weeks ago and no answer for it, saw some more people going through the same, could you please bring some light to us if our entries were received? Tried sending a ticket a month ago about it but never got a real response. Thank you and have an awesome day :*~~zuniak
If you did not get a rejection note then we likely did receive it. So sorry for the delay on getting back, Aesop does both NT and poetry on his own as I used to do so it gets tough sometimes. You writers submit a lot of amazing content so it can be tough to get through all of it reasonably with all the other things we have to do on the site. But I will remind him to try to keep up with all the entries.

Oh, this is good to know. Still feel kinda bad because of all the work I toss out, oops.

I thought this back when they first introduced them, but Aesop is the best name for a Neopets fanfic editor.

I'm not going to be surprised if they did it on purpose.

They sound great and incredibly familiar. They sound like... One of Us.

Doing the entire NT on top of content and spotlights is a heck of a task, though @.@ Carry on, brave editor.

Okay, so we did know about this. I just read the News, saw the bio on Aesop, and went "wait, WHAT? When did this happen?". Apparently last month and we all knew.

Well, um, I wish Aesop the best! Glad to hear we have someone who sounds to be like one of us finally behind the wheels of at least some part of the site!
