Wayward Echoes: Roads Once Traveled

While there are a great many members of my social circle who've complained of a blank spot in their memory where my face used to be and urged me to step outside more often than it takes to maintain my nicotine level, I've decided that the old saw about striking while the iron is hot merits adherence.  As hilariously fatal as it would probably be, no, this doesn't mean that I've taken up blacksmithing.  Rather, it means that I've decided to continue hiding from that obnoxiously bright, Burning Ball of +5 Ultraviolet Death in the sky and start immediately on the next installment of Seth Kierney's story.

Wayward Echoes: Roads Once Traveled will begin a few months after the conclusion of Wayward Echoes.  Since his confrontation with a certain spiritually gluttonous adversary, Seth has gained a deeper understanding of his powers.  Likewise, his mastery of less metaphysical disciplines has improved as well.  In short, Roads Once Traveled presents a more formidable Seth Kierney, and he's going to need every skill he's managed to cultivate if he's going to survive the upcoming trials.

It's far too early to accurately predict a release date but, barring some great and terrible catastrophe (Ten Plagues, detonation of the previously mentioned Burning Ball of +5 Ultraviolet Death, marriage, ad infinitum), readers can look forward to having the opportunity to read about Seth's next adventure by Christmas of this year.  Until then, drop in occasionally to check for updates, sample chapters, and more.

A Word from the Author

At the suggestion of nearly every online writer's resource I've come across while doing research on marketing a new novel, I decided to cave and create this blog to keep anyone who might be curious about news related to Wayward Echoes up to date.  For those of you who aren't familiar with the subject, Wayward Echoes is the story of Seth Kierney, a man with the ability to see, communicate with and host the souls of murder victims who remain earthbound due to their need for vengeance.  Seth is aided in his mission by Lilli, the first spirit that Seth helped make peace with her own end, and Nolan, a psychic equally devoted to Seth and his cause.

I suppose that, while it isn't exactly breaking news, I should start with what's probably the most important, and certainly most relevant, piece of information regarding the book.  Wayward Echoes is available for sale.  As of the time of this writing, it is currently only available in e-book format here through Amazon.com.  What does this mean for those who don't own Amazon's e-reader device, the Kindle?  Well, nothing, actually; Amazon offers e-reader applications for nearly every device here, which means that you can purchase and read Wayward Echoes on your PC, laptop, Smartphone, Tablet, and nearly any other device you might have at your disposal.

For those of you who do own a Kindle and have signed up for Amazon Prime, you can also borrow Wayward Echoes at no cost.  As the author, I'd like to say that I have no preference regarding which avenue you choose.  If you decide to purchase Wayward Echoes, that's fine of course, and I greatly appreciate it.  If you're an Amazon Prime subscriber and you'd rather borrow it, believe it or not, I'd also be grateful.  I enjoyed writing this story a great deal and, though I'm certainly not opposed to making money, it's enough to know that there are people out there who have the opportunity to enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed creating it.

To anyone who stumbles across this little corner of the web with questions, I can be reached at waywardechoes@hotmail.com.  Aside from that, I suppose all that I can say is thank you for your interest in this story.  It was a long time in the making, and though the first entry in Seth Kierney's journey is available, that journey is far from over.

Enjoy!
