When I started writing Echoes: Part One, I didn’t set out to write a “prison thriller.” I was more interested in exploring isolation, paranoia, and the human mind under extreme pressure. But as I researched psychiatric facilities, I realized they can be even more unsettling than any fictional prison , cause walls don’t just hold people in, they reshape reality itself.
I spent weeks reading real patient memoirs, medical ethics reports, and architectural layouts of old asylums. That research changed the way I wrote , even the smallest details, like how the paint peels or how a clock ticks, became tools to make the reader feel trapped.
The result was a story that blends psychological tension, mystery, and symbolism. If anyone’s curious, it’s now available on several platforms (including Smashwords ,Odilo , Tolino , BorrowBox ,Gardners, Kobo, EverandFable , Barnes & Noble), but I’d also love to hear your own favorite books or movies that explore isolation and unreliable narrators.
