Just a note – this is my own book.

I compiled Echoes as I had a collection of stories scattered over various clouds and drives that I felt naturally belonged together. The collection represents that moment you join the echo of someone's life, either by walking closely behind them, beside them, watching them, not watching them.

The observations are written in a variety of styles from the traditional storytelling of The Second Sin, to the contemporary abstract telling of Building. I would love to hear your thoughts on the collection.
