Wonderful! Nice job, Mil! I will wait for a final PL OK from Susan and then get going with cataloging.

Your blank section 66 is removed. It actually wasn't a problem with the server move, it was just me being dumb. :oops:

Dear Mil:

In Chapter 46, at 19:13 there is a slight stumble: "...lest he finding how easy ..." Stumble is on
"finding." I wouldn't point it out to anyone else, but since you never stumble, I thought I'd give you the opportunity to change it if you want. :D

Chap 46 with "stumble" fixed and re-uploaded.
Thanks Susan for catching that, we just can't have those double F's - seriously, I am very glad you feel as I do to produce a professional reading.

Great job Susan - Just Chap 27 to go and all's done YEAH!

Glad you enjoyed the 'read' it's a wonderful story, and even when a theatre last year ran for
three nights at 3 hrs an episode, they still had to miss out some gorgeous scenes.

Onward and upwards, hope you both enjoy a wonderful summer.

Cheers,
Mil

Dear Susan,
I found no occurrence of the words "outrageous" or "outraged" in Chapter 27, and have added that comment in the Magic Box. Is there anything further you need from me to approve Chapter 27? I'm going on vacation very soon, and would like to have this cleared before I go.

Hope your summer is going well with life being less hectic.

Regards,
Mil

Mil and Arielle:

I owe both of you a huge apology. I am so sorry for mixing up the comments in Chapters 12 and 27, and thus for delaying the conclusion of this book. Moreover, I should have caught this earlier. I know you are on your way out the door for your vacation, Mil, and I know this is a huge inconvenience, so I can't tell you how sorry I am.

Arielle, I know you have wanted to put this to bed. I have been sick the last couple of days, but it doesn't excuse the fact that I screwed this up royally and didn't find it earlier.

I'm really sorry, y'all. Mil, if you want to let Chapter 12 go as is, I don't think it's a problem. I've heard so much worse... Just let me know.

Humbly and repentantly--
Susan

Susan, I don't think there's any apology necessary! I've looked at your notes and I'm still not sure what's going on with 12, but if there's a repeat in 27, I'm quite sure (knowing Mil) that she'll want to fix that before we go to cataloging. I will wait for her signoff before going forward.

Susan and Arielle,
Happy to relate that there is nothing to be corrected. In Chapter 12 - the 'outrageous' appears to be wrong, but isn't, it's Charles Dickens way with words - Mrs. Squeers is indeed 'outrageous'. In Chapter 27 'do not breathe' is repeated in the text for emphasis. This is in Gutenberg and my edition of NN.

So, we're clear and ready to be catalogued. No apologies ever necessary.......

Cheers,
Mil
