Perfect Pairings: A Neo-Barista's Guide



Hi! Do you consider yourself to be a creative person? If so, there are several creative contests in Neopia for you to enter. They have undergone some changes recently, so I have decided to create a guide for 2026. (My poetry guide from Issue 904 is quite outdated by now!) This guide will cover the Neopian Times (including poetry), the Art Gallery, and the Storytelling Contest, as those are the contests which I have experience with entering. ---Neopian Times (including Poetry)--- The Neopian Times is Neopia’s newspaper, and it runs once every other week. It includes articles, short stories, comics, and now poetry, all written by users. Poetry used to have its own contest, but recently, poetry was combined into the Times. You can also enter a series, but I have never done that. Minimum and maximum word counts for each category of submission are found on the submission page. File sizing and format requirements for comics are found there as well: Submit your entry here! So, what should your piece be about? Sometimes, there are special editions of the Neopian Times, such as the winter holiday edition, Valentine’s Day, and Illusen Day. There is also a special user collab occasionally, where the theme is voted upon and decided by users. These special editions are announced on the “Neopian Writers” board. Also, every 25th edition of the Neopian Times is a commemorative
