Absolutely positively do this, folks.

You’re going to want GOD’S JUNK DRAWER I’m just saying. First book in a long time where I had no idea what was coming next.

The Lowdown is very much my jam.

If you're a fan of my book THE CONTEST I'll note I have another book (a very different book) called NINE TENTHS that's more "superhero noir" and maybe you should check that out. t.co/g6HjXp61c5

CAUGHT STEALING was pretty damn good.

Immediately preorder, you fools.

Stephen is an awesome writer (check out his Eric Carter series) and I’m always grateful when he boosts the signal like this.

Read.

I will be a behemoth in Madrid.

I'll note the Kindle version of The Contest is a very specific 53% off. Why 53%? Even Gillian, a puzzling expert, couldn't figure this out.

🚨BOOM🚨 WHEN ONE MAN DIES, the first Jackson Donne novel, is on sale for $1.99! openroadmedia.com/ebook/when-o...

It would appear The Contest is on a "limited time deal" with Amazon. So if you like seemingly smart characters who get in their own way, buy it for the first time, or again, to get those savings. www.amazon.com/Contest-Jeff...

THE CONTEST is more noir than anything, with a little Willy Wonka flair. If that sounds crazy, pick up a copy and see for yourself. Seen here at Tattered Cover in Denver.

I will take these comps any day of the week.

Some books I’ve read of late. 3’s, 4’s, and one 5 bagger. Go on, get some @jmacfee.bsky.social @robdsmith.bsky.social @keithrosson.bsky.social @ronaldmalfi.bsky.social @cbjones.bsky.social @michaelsellars.bsky.social Black Crouch, James Sallis and Mo Hayder. Fun was had! #BookSky 📚

While I have spared you all constant THE CONTEST shouting, not today! A reminder you can buy THE CONTEST in all eye and ear friendly formats, and if you've already bought it and enjoyed it, review away. www.amazon.com/Contest-Jeff...

And you thought I was done hyping THE CONTEST. The audiobook drops today! Buy here, or your audiobook shoppe of choice. www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0DV...

Given tomorrow is a useless day for announcing real news I’ll repeat that THE CONTEST audiobook drops in little more than 1 week (04/08) and you should preorder now. www.amazon.com/Audible-The-...

It might also be tornado sirens. But grab my book before you run to the closet!

Your semiregular reminder the audiobook for THE CONTEST (my book about a woman who doesn't win the big prize) drops 04/08, and print/ebook is out right now. Reviews on Goodreads and bookseller sites welcome! www.amazon.com/Contest-Jeff...

Should finish The Contest by @jmacfee.bsky.social tonight. Excellent novel about four people who competed in a high-stakes puzzle solving competition as kids and what became of them, as well as the Disneyesque sponsor of the competition, as they got older.

A reminder THE CONTEST audiobook drops on 04/08, and you're welcome to pre-order now. Or also order the print copy. And the digital copy. Don't restrain yourself. And review! Reviews help (good ones). www.amazon.com/Audible-The-...

To fill THE CONTEST shaped news holes in your life: You can buy the ebook/print at will! It's well reviewed, which I appreciate. www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/774517... * The audiobook is delayed until April 8th. I'm just the author, no idea why. But preorder! www.amazon.com/Audible-The-...

Looking for your next read? Endorse Nick's book, which drops today: www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/777465...

I want to thank all the people who gave THE CONTEST such good reviews. And a reminder the audiobook drops in a few weeks (March 25). www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/774517...

Really nice THE CONTEST review.

I agreed on the other platform and I agree on this platform.

As you prepare to buy your 3rd printed copy of THE CONTEST, take comfort that the audiobook releases in just over a month, 03/25, at your audiobook purveyor of choice. Preorders welcome!

You’ll want to read this.

Read THE CONTEST everybody’s doing it…

If you live in a social media cave and didn’t know I had a book out.

While I’m at it @alexsegura.bsky.social comics-centered books SECRET IDENTITY and ALTER EGO scratch that superhero itch, while also being grounded. Kind of my jam.

Also @stephenblackmoore.com writes some great stuff. His Eric Carter series is great fun. Read all that. Or else.

You all should be checking out @peterclines.bsky.social. I mean, his books like THE BROKEN ROOM, THE FOLD, etc. Don’t check him out in person. That’s weird.

Those of you buying your subsequent copies of THE CONTEST (buy 2, obviously) should wander over (digitally or physically) to @murderbooks.bsky.social. As they have copies and it’s up on new releases: www.murderbooks.com/new-paperbac...

Killer review of THE CONTEST from Sam at SFBook. Exactly what you (or at least me) need.

You say you haven't kept up with The Contest happenings? Well, I captured a snapshot of said happenings for you: jeffmacfee.com/news

Over on Crimereads I'm writing about child prodigies whose brains don't make life any easier. (Kind of like the book I wrote.) crimereads.com/5-novels-wit...

Read a fraction of THE CONTEST, then buy. www.karendocter.com/karens-kille...

Nick grills me savagely about The Contest. Or just asks me questions, nicely. nickkolakowski.substack.com/p/jeff-macfe...

Peter Clines said some very nice things about THE CONTEST.

I am one half of this. (Congrats, Catherine!)

Dave White tricks me into volunteering a pun. Also we discuss my new book The Contest. buttondown.com/DaveWhite/ar...

THE CONTEST by Jeff Macfee @jmacfee.bsky.social is out now! To celebrate its release, the online tour will be kicking off today! Follow along to see what others thought of this puzzle-packed mystery... 🧩🤔 For more info & to get your hands on a copy, click here: tinyurl.com/5cxrbt9h

I’m done with Macfee’s reminders about his book THE CONTEST coming out tomorrow, you say? How about if Crimereads reminds you? t.co/LmcOBpVeOe

I would tell you to listen to Dave regardless. But it helps when he loves my book.

Last day of the preorder sale. Make your neighbor buy one and I’ll leave you alone. Maybe.

The sale is still on. Check out how Gillian’s stubborn smarts create as many problems as they solve.
