Who does your covers?

A variety of artists but my most frequent are Emma Rider from Moonstruck Cover Design and Photography, Jodie Leigh-Plowman from Jodielocks Designs, and Kadee Brianna from Everly Yours Cover Design. To know a specific designer for a cover - it is listed on the copyright page of that book.
I found an error in one of your books, how can I let you know?"

Message Manda McNeely PA on Facebook or email me at author.ajmacey@gmail.com with the book, page number, error, and a screenshot of the ebook page (or a photograph of the book page).
What happened to the Best Wishes/FSID pre-orders?

2020 and the beginning of 2021 have been tremendiously draining creating a lack of creativity and a boost in fibromyalgia flareups and writer's block. I'm planning on having book 4 of BW and book 2 of FSID back up for preorder this year (2021) with the hopes of having book 5 and 3 of each by early 2022. When the pre-orders go back up, they won't be moving so I want to ensure the draft is completed or within the final 3-5 chapters so it can have ample time for editing by my development/content and copy/line/proofreading editors.
When is book 4 of High School Clowns & Coffee Grounds releasing?

I'm hoping to work on it summer 2021. The pre-order will go live when the draft is completed or withing 3-5 chapters of being finished. I'll make an announcement on all of my social media platforms including: my Patreon, my Facebook page, my reader group A.J. Macey's Minions, Instagram/Twitter, and my newsletter.
When is book 2 and 3 of Vega City Vigilantes releasing?

I'm hoping to work on it spring/summer of 2022 to release October 2022. It didn't sell very well so it's on the docket to finish after HSC&CG, FSID Agents, and Best Wishes are finished. I'll make an announcement on all of my social media platforms when the preorder(s) are live including: my Patreon, my Facebook page, my reader group A.J. Macey's Minions, Instagram/Twitter, and my newsletter.
