Thanks also to my readers and reviewers, especially the dedicated regulars. Come visit my LiveJournal blog here. NEW work-in-progress: Kristina: A Fantasy. This is an alternative universe (AU) story based on the Phantom of the Opera. It's still Paris in the late 19th century, and young Swedish singer Kristina is still making her way through Paris - but there is a lot different, too - as well as magical realism and romance. Phantoms of the Past This is my Leroux-based serial novel, NOW COMPLETED!. I wrote POTP because I wanted to explore Christine's point of view from the inside. What did it feel like to be Christine as a prisoner in Erik's apartment by the lake? Why did she return to him, even when she might have escaped? Why that inexplicable burst of tenderness at the end? What was her marriage to Raoul like, and her family? Other Leroux-based stories include "The Flames That Consume Us," "A Lady Called Death," and "Like a Baroness." My Phantom of the Opera movie fan-fiction is based on the film universe created by Andrew Lloyd Webber and Joel Schumacher. All my Phantom movie stories pair Meg with the Phantom, and are part of the same story universe and thus have many references and recurring characters in common. If you want to read them in order, they go as follows: "The Man in the Boat" (after Music of the Night) Visit my C2 called Stranger Than You Dreamt It. Here you will find well-written Phantom of the Opera oneshots and completed stories which are just plain different, which open doors others won't. These unusual stories feature odd or uncommon settings or twists, or show a side of a character you've never seen before. All pairings and versions have in common innovative and good quality writing.
