Querying for a literary agent.

New blog - The cosmos asks “What’s the point?” and Cork answers with a pub quiz. Why the funniest book in the trilogy is also the one where a man dissolves into living music and the Devil has nothing left to say. Link in bio.

New blog - Every year, when I begin teaching Schubert's Winter Travels, I start somewhere else. I start with Vivaldi. Students assume Vivaldi’s Four Seasons is about the weather. It isn't. Homer, Vivaldi, Schubert — and now Colleen. Four journeys. One archetype. Link in bio.

Cont'd from last week - The dream doesn’t end with the blade. A ghost watches his own burial, Ophelia walks out of the fog, and the woman who inspired the most radical symphony in history is weeping in the balcony. New blog, link in bio.

New blog - I’ve listened to the March to the Scaffold hundreds of times. In that four and a half minutes, I watch a man die—the prison, the crowd, the blade, and two quiet plucked notes that change the room every time I play them for students. Link in Bio.

Some great news from the Kurt Vonnegut Museum and Library!

New blog - There’s an old Haida story about how the raven stole the sun and threw it into the sky so we wouldn’t have to live in darkness. That’s the teacher’s mission. Three novels later, the trickster keeps showing up — and in Three Moons, he wears gray feathers. Link in bio.

Not just a pub—a threshold, a living room, a stage. How real Irish pubs built the fictional heart of the Trilogy, and why the cosmic apocalypse keeps circling back to a pub in Cork. New blog, link in bio.

Eleanor chose her career. Henriette chose her art. Camille chose security. Three women in 1830 Paris, each navigating a world that offered them almost nothing. New blog - link in bio.

Irish mythology has four great cycles, each with its own heroes, tragedies, and impossible loves. A map for readers encountering them for the first time. New blog - link in bio.

@bethanyhensel13 Absolutely. Just posted.

I cut an article out of a newspaper years ago. It was about a woman named Pauline who refused to leave the land her family had stood on for generations. Three Moons is not her story. But it could not have been written without her. New blog on my website - link in bio.

Why Irish words live untranslated inside the Cosmic Janitor Trilogy—and why the sound of Cork Irish is as much a character as the people who speak it. New blog. Link in bio.

Three new posts on Ink & Shadow — a novel built like a Schubert song cycle, a fifty-page discovery that rewrote an entire book, and a stone carried into a 5,000-year-old passage tomb. Music, craft, and myth. The three threads that run through everything I write. Link in bio.

New Blog - When I sold my parents’ house, I kept almost nothing from my childhood. One thing I kept was a fifty-page Classics Illustrated comic book about Edgar Allan Poe. Many years later, he walked into my novel. Link in bio.

[William E Doyle @williamedoyle6]

New blog - 'Drop the Needle.' A music history class, an exam, and the start of my Berlioz - Poe interest. Link in bio.
