Hi Inky,
          
          I came across your work and really enjoyed what you’re putting out especially [Wuthering Current].
          
          I work with authors to help them grow their presence on platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok, and one thing I’ve noticed is how much visibility and reader engagement can be left on the table when those channels aren’t fully leveraged.
          
          A lot of great authors end up relying heavily on marketplaces or publishers, when there’s actually a big opportunity to build a direct audience of loyal readers who follow and support every release.
          
          I’d be happy to share a few simple ideas tailored to your work no pressure at all. Let me know if you’d be open to a quick chat sometime 
          
          Wishing you continued success with your writing!

I  didn't make the last leg of the challenge, I kinda got stuck and well, I know I am going to miss the deadline for the ONC 2026. 
          
          I have some ideas, like  chase through the now closed museum of Living Computers+Labs, a bit of point an click hell, and maybe a twist. I just felt the deadline was too soon for something that I am cooking, especially doing research for 1990's area tech and lingo.  So I failed the challenge, but hey, I'm just glad I participated.

Here is my "road to the finish line":
          
              ➡ Remaining Word Count: 11,840 words.
             ➡  Daily Target: I need to write roughly 623 words per day to finish on time.
              Chapter Count: I likely to need about 7 to 8 more chapters to hit the minimum.

I officially made it to ROUND 3!
          
          Can I MAKE it all the way to 20,000 words by the final deadline, on April 30, 2026.
           Current Word Count Breakdown 4/11/2026 
          TOTAL: 8,160 words
          Remaining Word Count: *11,840 words.*

I just added an "Chapter 0" to give an introduction to my story for the Open Novella Contest. I'm writing about 90's nostalgia, especially: 1990's software, CD-ROM gaming, and FMVs. So I figured having a glossary of terms  (along with  the prompts) would be a good reference for readers who may be unfamiliar with the lingo and terminology.

STATUS UPDATE: COMPLIANCE MET. 
          I’ve officially hit the 8,000-word milestone for Round 2 of the Open Novella Contest! Chapter 4: The Sandbox Promise is live, and things are getting glitchy. We’re diving deep into the industrial grit of 1995 FMV cinema—think Crusader: No Remorse meets digital nightmare.
          Huge thanks to everyone following Cleo and Jules into the Archive. The Handshake is active... are you ready for the breach? ️⚡️ #ONC2026 #RetroComputing #SciFiHorror

Chapter 4 is live now for the Glass Panopticon, my entry for the ONC 2026. Part 2 of the contest is almost over!

Just published Chapter 3 for my entry for the  ONC 2026, trying to get to my goal of 8,000 words before 31 March 2026. Roughly two more weeks to go!

Just for reference, I'm participating in the Open Novella Contest for 2026, and I made it to round two. I'm writing about an sentient character from an 90's FMV game. To give you context, here is a link to one of my reference materials "Crusader: No Remorse".
