What is the Neighbor from Hell YA Series?

The NFH YA series follows Mikey and Sebastian’s story. There are five books in the NFH YA series. The main focus is on Mikey and Sebastian, but you will see other stories play out in the series. After the five YA novels, it will end with an adult book.

The next book in the NFH YA series is “Difficult.” There are no set dates for this book yet. Updates for Difficult can be found on the Home page, on Facebook, and through the R.L. Mathewson Newsletter, which you can sign up for on the Home Page.

Are you going to write Shayne’s book from the Cursed Heart Series?

Yes, I am planning to write it this year.

Will you write another book for the Hollywood Hearts Series or the EMS Series?

Yes, I got sidetracked and backed up trying to catch up with several other books. My goal is to get to them this year.

When will Kenzie and Roger get their book?

Kenzie and Roger’s book is called “Mercy.” I will be working on their book after I finish “Playtime’s Over,” which is Garret’s book. I don’t have set dates yet, but they are priorities.

Are you planning on doing any signings this year?

Yes, I have a signing in Virginia planned in July 2023 and Pennsylvania. I will be attending RARE Paris 2024. More details to come!

Will the books be in paperback soon?

I am working on that this year. I am going through each book and making sure that they were perfect before we create paperbacks. We will also be updating the eBooks. I will make an announcement when all the books are done so that readers can update their books for free.

You can find Another Christmas from Hell and The Project in paperback now.

Will the last book you published be in Audible?

Yes, it just takes time. Sometimes it’s a long process, unfortunately. There’s a lot to do in order to produce the audible file. I will keep everyone updated as best I can.

What is Never Again?

Never Again is a Chronicle that I was releasing every week for Newsletter members. I am currently finishing the book for release. Newsletter members will get a chance for a free download. Never Again will be available once it’s done wide (B&N, iBooks, Kobo, etc.) before it joins the rest of the books at KindleUnlimited.

How do I sign up for an ARC?

I’m sorry, but at this time I don’t do ARCs. I use beta readers occasionally, but that’s just to ensure the story works. If I ever decide to do ARCs I will put up a signup list.

How do I get a signed book?

As soon as the books are fixed and set up for print, I will start doing giveaways as well as find a way to make them available online.

Will the books come back to iBooks, B&N, and Kobo?

Yes, but I am not sure when. The books were placed in Kindle Unlimited to help bring new life to them, reach new readers, and to help keep the books affordable for readers.

Why aren’t the books published immediately to Kindle Unlimited?

I publish the books wide the first week to give readers a chance to keep their collections together. I know readers prefer to keep their book together, especially in the same series/by the same author, so I publish them wide first to give readers who have been with me from the beginning a chance to keep the books together.

When will we have Never Again?

Soon 🙂
