Breaking the streak costs nothing. It will still be here.
What the story is doing behind your back
Flagged, never corrected. Every one of these might be a plot twist instead of a mistake.
Eye colour contradicts canon
Ch. 2 has Neve's eyes 'green as a bottle held to light'. Ch. 11, paragraph 4, describes them as grey when the Widow looks at her.
Glass carried off the road
Oris still has the shard in Ch. 22, three days after taking it. Canon says anything off the causeway turns to salt within a day.
Callum's death year has moved
Ch. 4 says eleven years ago, Ch. 19 implies nine. The canon entry is still Provisional, so this may be deliberate.
A character has gone quiet
Oris hasn't spoken since Ch. 18. Not an error — just noting it in case he was meant to be there.
2 contradictions, 2 softer observations. None of them have touched a word of your prose.
Threads still open
The ending is usually hiding in this list.
Callum — alive or not
Opened Ch. 4 · Nineteen chapters and no answer. Currently the biggest unclosed loop.
Who salted the well
Opened Ch. 22 · Opened two chapters ago. Fine.
The Widow's deliberately-wrong map
Opened Ch. 11 · Mentioned once, never returned to. Could be the ending.
Oris's apprenticeship secret
Opened Ch. 11 · Canon says he'd never told her. Still untold.

A note from your companion
It will not follow you into the page.
You have written on twelve consecutive days and the last four sessions ran past ninety minutes. That is real work. When you finish this chapter, consider standing up.
