Echoes by Marissa Lete (best books for students to read txt) 📕

when I was a kid, and your reminders of my desire to be an author even then helped me stay motivated.

Thanks to Michele, whose self-publishing adventure inspired me to take that step myself. When I first learned that you were writing a book, I hadn’t written in years, but that night I pulled out my laptop and started scanning through my old stuff. Little did I know I’d find the rough beginning of this book in that pile, and a year later would have a fully completed novel from it.

Thanks to Joe, who actually made time to read (most of) this book when I told you about it, even after you haven’t read a book in like 20 years. Also thanks for trying to help me with my grammar, even though almost every time you were completely wrong. It made me laugh.

Shoutout to Michele, Denise, Carole, and Wendy, the wonderful ladies that make up the Southern Scribblers, and whose writing continues to inspire me.

Thanks to Shawna, who helped me take the emotional healing journey I needed to take before I could get this book out there. You’ve changed my perspective on life in so many ways, and I’m so excited to be doing this self-publishing journey with you!

And last, but certainly not least, thanks to Jacob. Thanks for taking that night job at the hotel, which sparked my sleepless nights and therefore the beginning of this book. Thanks for all of the wonderful ideas you come up with any time I write, even though I don’t use most of them. I’m putting them in the quiver for later, I promise.

About the Author

Marissa decided early on that she never wanted to grow up, so she became an author of young adult paranormal, science fiction, and fantasy novels. Echoes is her debut novel. When she isn’t writing her own books or reading everything she can get her hands on, she works as a spray technician at a landscaping company in Greensboro, NC. There, she lives in a tiny apartment with her husband, two cats, and a freezer always stocked with rocky road ice cream.
