MYTHS OF HELICON MOUNTAIN

I love Mythology, always have, can't remember when I didn't. My name is Mariah Matthews. I live in the USA, and this blog is about a novel that I'm currently writing, working title: : MYTHS OF HELICON MOUNTAIN.

MUSING ABOUT CHAPTER TWENTY

I’m not sure where Chapter 20 ends.  I’m never sure where one chapter ends and another begins until I get there.  As always, there are stories that must be told and I have to figure out how to weave them in.  The process of filling in the back-stories has been the most challenging part of this novel.  Someone has to be the narrator, this time it’s Orpheus.  The trick is to weave it in so as not to bore the reader.  Here goes. Sing your song, Orpheus.  I'm right here beside you!

I'm listening too, Orpheus. Sing on. Love the trilogy stories.

Fantastic reading -- I agree with Karleene. If you love mythology or good fiction this will be for you. I am looking forward to reading Myths of Helicon Mountain when it is published.

Thanks, Karleene and M. C. for looking in and for your comments. Both supporter par excellence! I wouldn't be this near to fiishing MYTHS without you! - Mariah
