Who

Mac Harvey is a Palm Beach author and the founder of Oceanfront Press — an imprint under themacharvey.com built for stories that move like prestige television.

Why he built it

Authors shouldn’t guess their way from a finished manuscript to a shelf-ready book. Mac built Oceanfront so writers can see every step — submit, edit, proof, design, ISBN/IngramSpark specs, publish — with transparency, a publisher walking beside them, and tools that turn a file into a paperback and ebook experience.

Purpose

Help authors begin the publishing process and carry it through to publication — whether they self-publish via IngramSpark with Oceanfront or pursue traditional paths — without the fog of generic SaaS or invisible gatekeeping.

The founder story

  • Wrote and published his own catalog — Brickell Boss, Dream. Walk. Live., the Accession / Immersion / Atonement series, and Incandescent.
  • Lived the hard parts firsthand: covers, interiors, IngramSpark uploads, metadata, and eProofs.
  • Built the imprint and author portal so other writers get that guidance from day one to “published.”
