I just posted Chapter Eight, the final chapter, of Better Half? and was able to mark this work as completed! Just in time to submit to the third and final round of #ONC2026. This was a fun experience. I definitely have a lot of room for improvement but putting a story out there and taking it from nothing to completion was a huge accomplishment. If you are also participating in the 2026 Open Novella Contest I wish you the best of luck.
