Hey everyone, I've decided to change the title of this story for multiple reasons which will be detailed below.
1. The Lament of a Castrato is rather unoriginal, don't you think? This new title is far more interesting and less blunt. Also, it has to do with Gabriele's future stage name (you'll see in the next few chapters).
2. I needed an excuse to change the Le Sueur painting in the cover to the Rubens one because the colors in the Rubens one are more vibrant.
3. Removing the word 'castrato' from the title will probably improve my reach slightly. Nobody would know this (wink, wink) but I'm very interested in opera during the 18th century and castrati and I want to share this love with the rest of the world.
4. I needed to publish a chapter and I haven't written more than a few pages since I last published.
With that being said, sit back, relax, and most importantly, buckle your seatbelts. Oh yeah, and make sure to enjoy the rest of my story as well as share/vote/comment. Look back to Reason No. 3.
