The Immortal Memory

by Aled Thomas

The immortal memory is a concept, an idea. An idea as old as civilisation itself. An idea which impacts us all on our journeys today. The idea is that we all want to be remembered. But in what way will you leave your mark and how will your memories transpire within others? In this book, we will discover those questions and more together.

About the author

I’m Aled Thomas, a writer from Caerphilly who loves exploring the messy, beautiful parts of what makes us human. I write stories about people carrying grief, love, and hope through difficult landscapes - both emotional and physical. Much of my work is inspired by the mountains and valleys of Wales, where I grew up and still call home.

I have hiked every major mountain in Britain and completed a full OS-map checklist of the Brecon Beacons during lockdown, and the outdoors almost always finds its way into my fiction. I’m fascinated by the quiet moments of connection that shape us, the promises we make, and the things we hold on to long after someone is gone.

Before writing full-time, I served in the Royal Navy and now work as an ASD Senior Teaching Assistant in Cardiff. Supporting neurodiverse young people has changed the way I see the world, and it’s made its way into my writing in the form of compassion, patience, and small emotional truths.

If you enjoy emotionally rich, atmospheric stories with complex characters and a strong sense of place, I hope you’ll find something meaningful in my work. Feel free to reach out. I love connecting with readers.
