clean slate complex is part of the daynight series, but was written so that you could enjoy whether or not you’d already read daynight. If you haven’t read daynight, you can purchase it here. If you have, the sequel to daynight, arbitrate is expected to be released in late summer 2013. Alexa, Adam and Joshua will appear again in arbitrate.

Acknowledgments
This has been a really fun project for me. It’s the first project where I used a professional content/copy editor and I’m so glad I did (I used professional proofreaders for daynight, but not a content editor). clean slate complex went through three full editing rounds, alpha and beta reads, and a proofread round. A big thank you to Jill Marie Swanson for her sharp eye. If you’re in need of an editor you can contact Jill Marie by email here.
I had fantastic alpha and beta readers for clean slate complex. They gave spot on feedback that shaped my rewrites and helped make the final product something I’m happy with (after many, many rewrites :)). Three of the beta readers are excellent authors in their own right who took time out of their very busy schedules to give me feedback. I encourage you to check out their excellent dystopian novels:
- Katie French, author of The Breeders and Nessa (a Breeders story)
- SK Falls (writing as Adriana Ryan), author of World of Shell and Bone
- Gretchen Powell, author of Terra
I’d also like to thank bloggers Sydney Campbell (Rattle the Stars) and Isabel Gomez (Sab the Book Eater) for beta reading clean slate complex. And Nancy K, Ashley B, Breanna B, Alyssa T, and Jon T for their alpha and beta reads. A big thanks to fellow author and friend, Nicole Grotepas (Blue Hearts of Mars-a fun scifi romance) for her support and encouragement throughout the project.
I love my family dearly and am so grateful for their support. They read whatever I’m working on, give me feedback, help me promote, and don’t complain when the house gets untidy, when they’re fed fast food because I forgot to go to the grocery store, or when I’m working long hours.
Finally I’d like to thank daynight’s supporters:
- Those who were early “adopters” and helped spread the word.
- Early critics who pointed out some flaws I’d missed so that I could get them fixed before others read.
- The bloggers who have helped promote the daynight series, whether as part of the official daynight blog tours or out of the goodness of their hearts and their love of books.
- Kathy from I am a Reader, Not a Writer and Laura from Prism Book Tours for their tireless efforts setting up my blog tours and book blasts.
- The professional review houses (Kirkus Reviews, BlueInk Review, ForeWord Clarion & Self Publishing Review) for their prompt and positive reviews.
- Everyone who has taken the time to write a positive review on Amazon.com or goodreads, follow the series on facebook, or follow me on Twitter.
- All who have written me personal messages, tweets, and emails full of support and encouragement (there were days when those notes kept me going!).
- Everyone who has downloaded and read daynight—I know there are so many reading options out there and I’m honored and humbled that you’d read mine.

Megan’s fluent in sarcasm, could potentially benefit from a 12-step program for road rage, struggles with a Hot Tamales addiction, loves world travel & fast cars and hates paperwork & being an insomniac. clean slate complex is Megan’s second published work (after daynight), but fifth written one.
