Book cover titled "ECHOES OF US" by Arden Coutts, featuring illustrated hands reaching towards each other against a starry night sky background with clouds and a rainbow-colored streak.

6/12/26: Holy smokes! I dropped the ball on this one! EOU comes out in 4 days! I am beyond excited and so so grateful to everyone who has helped EOU come to life. I could not have done it without Bridie and Mark of APEXVERSE and, of course, the amazing editors of English Proper Services. I am so excited for the book to come out and for folks to read it!

When the world goes quiet, what echoes through the ruins is love, grief, and everything we couldn’t outrun.

Echoes of Us has been turned in to my publisher!! As of August 2025, Echoes is no longer in my hands. Here’s to waiting on feedback and edits :)

12/20/25: I got the rights back to my books so that I can self-publish them. There wasn’t a problem with the publisher or anything; I just decided that I wanted to stick to self-publishing. Echoes of Us is currently with an Alpha reader, and I can’t wait to see their feedback!

01/24/26: Echoes of Us (EOU) has been through Alpha reading and is now with a Beta Reader! The feedback so far has been positive, YAY!

03/24/26: EOU is through Alpha and Beta Reading and copy editing and has moved on to ARC readers! What!? How did we get here? Everything is moving so quickly, plus we got the new covers done, and the publishing date is officially June 16, 2026. Get ready!
