《Echoes Of Memory》A brief update on why there has been a lack of updates.
Advertisement
Hey everyone, I just wanted to give you all an update. I haven't updated my novel recently and I feel sorry for that and want to apologize to you for that. The reasons for not updating are twofold. First is that I have recently opened a Milk Tea shop with my wife and opening a small business is a time consuming thing, especially when you are opening it in a foreign country and everything is literally in Chinese (because I live in China if that wasn't obvious) and the second reason is not good news at all.
The second reason I haven't updated recently is that, sadly, I had a computer snaffu and ended up losing three whole novels that I had written, including Echoes of Memory, which I was posting for you guys. I had saved to multiple cloud sources, but with that computer snaffu, the auto-update feature had been turned off and I lost basically the last two and a half years of writing, including a draft of a novel that was 50K words in plus the edited version Echoes of Memory that I've been posting on here.
The good news is that, aside from the 50K words I lost in the other novel, I was able to find a full draft of Echoes of Memory that I will need to re-edit the last couple chapters of for you guys, and I am near %100 certain I can recover another fully edited version of another novel that I was planning on going the traditional publishing route with...So I only ended up losing one unfinished manuscript. Still though, it's been quite the annoyance and disheartening. I do plan on updating and finishing Echoes of Memory as soon as time allows and I'm still crossing my fingers that hidden somewhere deep in my emails I have a full edited draft in its depths....

So, I do wish to say sorry but also let you know why I haven't updated in quite a while. Thanks for your patience and a true deep thanks to all those who have read my book so far. I'm almost at 7K views and that's pretty amazing and I really appreciate everyone who's taken time to check out my humble little story. Hopefully soon I will have the finished product ready for you, and I apologize for not updating recently.
Also, along those lines, after I finish posting Echoes of Memory here, I might not be around for a while, for though I have some more stories, I don't have one that I plan on posting as a serial at the moment. I might have one in the future, but I want to explore a couple of differing outlets for my writing.
Anyway, God bless y'all. Thanks for the patience and I'm grateful for you all!

Ferrian's Winter
Ferrian has been running his whole life. Running, because he has no choice. Wherever he goes, Winter follows. Wherever he sleeps, frost creeps at his door. From town to town he hastens, frightened, tired; forever trying to keep one step ahead of the cold, the snow and the devastating storms. It is a kind of curse, and Ferrian has no idea what it means. Only someone with a knowledge of magic might be able to to help him, but sorcerers are nearly extinct in the world. Two brothers remain, however; the last of their once-noble kind, holed up in a secluded valley, waging their own private and very personal war. Ferrian, captured by the local law enforcers, finds himself unexpectedly amongst friends sympathetic to his cause, and together they set out on an adventure-filled quest to find the last sorcerers. * * * * * This is a completed, self-published novel, over two volumes, that I am serialising for Royal Road.
