Pouring your time and energy into a story is no easy thing. Besides, the more effort, the better you'll get, right? :) That said ... I know the motivation of the contest has passed, but the motivation of getting better for your next story is still there, for what it's worth to you. So, I do hope that -- once you've taken some time to let the frustration pass -- you'll still finish it. :) Just my opinion.
