Hi All,

I successfully submitted just a hair under deadline, at exactly 11:58 PM, and accidentally pasted the wrong version of my little story.  So, now I can't withdraw and resubmit.  But I added a note to the original on-time entry that contains the final, updated version.  Is that acceptable?  I discovered and immediately fixed the SNAFU, but it was a tiny bit past midnight by then.

Side note:  I registered late and never got a confirmation email.

Please advise!  Thanks so much in advance!

J

Iā€™m not sure but I think it should be okay. I hope they respond to your note so you will know sooner than later. Good luck šŸ¤žšŸ¼

Exactly the time I got mine submitted! I had it set to go, but struggled with a title at the end. An hour after submitting, I found the email about hitting the space bar twice, to keep it from being single spaced. Cry

I sent an email, and posted the correctly spaced version in the notes. I hope they read that one, instead of the big paragraph that appears on the main link. It was so much easier last year. Just paste and submit!
