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....

This novel's true home is a different platform. Support the author by finding it there.

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!
