Fic progress
16 July 2023 12:57 pmChapter 13 of Hertha uploaded; I was hoping for a slightly more enthusiastic reception given that this is one of the major turning points of the story and people had actually been asking where the next chapter was, but it was as muted as usual.
Nearly finished now -- we just have the final confrontation (in this case between Hertha and Christine rather than between Christine and the Phantom!) and then the epilogue chapter.
Meanwhile I have typed Chapter 30 of Arctic Raoul, although I'm not all that happy with it. It's very much an 'in-between chapter' by its nature, since it covers the lengthy and fruitless search before they happen across Kulla; the C/R stuff, perhaps unsurprisingly, is quite good, but the 'action scene' I'd remembered is literally *two paragraphs* out of a four-thousand-word chapter, 150 words from "the pony threw up his head and bolted" to "a moment later it was all over"...
