Starting to wonder if I could sell a novel just by promising it would be Greek myth but NOT Clytemnestra or Medea. Such impossible variety, unthinkable novelty!

I'm currently writing a novel that is partly based on the obscure legend told by Julian, Photios, and several scholiasts about the foundation of the temple of the Mother of the Gods in the Athenian agora, although I expand on it quite a bit and incorporate a lot of themes with contemporary salience.
I'm currently working on a series about the Pythia, from an imagined origin on Crete c. 1450 BCE to the Sanctuary of Delphi's closing c. 400 CE. Historical fantasy because I include Python, the Sphinx, and interaction with deities. But heavy on historical events and people.
