[CONTEST OVER] JNC Original Light Novel Contest
-
I decided to restrict my outline to the first arc (three volumes) as it is a natural ending point and I'll be happy if I get there. The main questions in the arc ae resolved, the Big Bad is defeated, the Hero lives, etc.
I do have future arcs planned but, personally, my approach is to break it up into manageable and publishable chunks - especially as we only have 10,000 words total and I want to give them certainty that this has an end point.

I really didn't want to be that person, but...
I submitted my work about a month ago, since I figured that I wouldn't have time to work on it anymore until much later. However, it seems that in the end, I was able to translate the manuscript into my own language, still this year. Of course, while doing so, I found some more mistakes in the English manuscript, despite all my best efforts to eliminate every single one of them before submission.
I know that submitting my work again will get me in trouble. But I just want to ask if there is a way or if I'll have a chance later on to fix those things before the preview is made available on the site (that is, if I ever pass the 2nd round).
The mistakes are not that critical, but as a perfectionist, of course they bother me a lot.
Wish you all a merry Christmas and good luck to everyone.
