I wrote a paragraph while I was on vacation, but I have a long way yet to go. It's funny that you talk about music. Music is a central theme of my tale, but because of the spin I'm putting on it, I can't actually listen to much of anything while I'm writing this. That's a bit of a bummer because sometimes music is just the key.

Actually...Memento ( http://remyvankesteren.nl/ )might pull the trick here. He has a few tracks that are a bit bizarre for harp playing, and it might just work. I'll try tonight if I can clear up some of my pile of emails.

Given your hectic schedule, a paragraph while on vacation is laudable. Ah, music as a central theme? I'm intrigued!

Is there a music player on the Remy site you linked to? If so, my dear little laptop hasn't deciphered the coding for it. I'll go look for some of the tracks on youtube.

No, I put the link in to show which (of many different) Memento albums I was referring to. He's an amazing harpist with a very modern flair and some fabulous stuff. I hope you can find some examples of his music.

Ah okay, so many artists' sites have music samples these days that I thought maybe I was missing something. I just found this on youtube; not sure if there will be any overlap with that particular album's content, but I'm about to have a listen (if Ori will stop being in a snit about being asked to open the tab).

Here are a few more links for his music. He's really fun, the way he takes charge of the harp and makes it work both musically and with tonal dissonance.

Thanks! I like his style, really expressive. He's also attractive enough to cast me into a state of mild ire. =p
