Before You Submit
Before you go to submit your novella entry for Round One, we recommend doing a self-checklist to make sure that your story is eligible to qualify for the contest:
✰ Your story is a new book, published on Wattpad after the launch of the ONC 2024 (February 1st, 2024) and was written specifically for this contest.
✰ Your story follows one of the prompts listed in the prompts chapter. Alterations and interpretations are fine as long as the general core of the prompt is still recognisable to the judges.
✰ You have written at least 2000 words.
Prologues and epilogues count towards the word goal, they are a part of the literary material.
Author's notes, cast lists, aesthetic etc., multimedia which enhances the novella does not count towards the written word count goal.
