igenlodeFinally getting round to fixing the midnight sun problem, over a year later (prompted far too late by the prospect of a self-imposed deadline). Each and every reference to 'night' or 'dark' has to be changed, after the initial inserted explanation that by the time Raoul managed to establish the ship's position in Ch17 "the nights up here had ebbed to little more than a dismal grey twilight, in stark warning" that they were already too far north... and of course the entire mental concept of the wreck and landing and meeting with d'Artois in Chapter 20 has to be recast from being a night-time scene taking place by lantern light :-(
I discovered at least one missing word in the process (very obviously omitted during the typing-up process), which makes me wonder how many more errors are still lurking in there, despite my efforts!
And I *still* have no decent title for the whole thing (provisional attempt "From the Phantom's Shadow", which is dreadful -- but for marketing purposes I think I probably do need 'Phantom' in there somewhere to tell people what they are getting into). I suppose the 'theme' of the whole story is Raoul and Christine working out what their priorities are (and, in Raoul's case, growing up considerably) and coming together *as a result of* Erik's actions, when, ironically enough, if he had just left the two of them alone they would have been separated for life...
