Resolved
NO

On my blog [1] I attempt, for the third year, to post 31 short pieces of fiction according to a prompt list provided by a fellow blogger. In 2022, I managed to post 15 out of 31. In 2023, I posted 22 out of 31.

So far this year [2] I posted one story a day for the first 8 days, and slipped on the 9th. I plan to catch up, but will I?

This question resolves YES if I have posted all 31 stories on my blog by the end of October. The last October post will go up (by design) on October 31, 9:00 UTC. Stories shall be at least 200 words each, posted in order of the prompts. There may be day without stories as long as other days make up for it.

Otherwise, question resolves NO. I will not bet on this market, questions welcome.

Spooktober is over, challenge is alas not complete, resolving NO.

13th story has been posted on the 16th day: https://www.schlaugh.com/~/qsRfhzN

... and none since then. An epic rally of 18 stories in a single post is not impossible but, I must admit, quite improbable. The market has been an actual nudge, though, I'll design a new one for November!

11th story has been posted on the 13th day. https://www.schlaugh.com/~/xGPGjHV
