Slow Notes… isn’t a full draft yet, but the prologue and first chapter are up on Voyage YA (!!!), so I thought I’d put together a sampler to give a little taste of the book — a queer (f/f) take on Orpheus and Eurydice by way of Pushing Daisies — as a whole. As an Orpheus retelling, music is obviously a huge part of Mavie and Tara’s story, and I wanted this sampler to capture the joy, sorrow, and magic (and, of course, the yearning tm) of their journey into the underworld — and into each other’s arms.
