He is also the author of a number of books, including ones on American International Pictures, Roger Corman, Robert Lippert and Sam Katzman.^[2]

He wrote a book on Roger Corman and told Corman that he wanted to write a script for him. McGee did drafts of Sorority House Massacre II (1989) that were not used. He also wrote an un-used script for Joe Solomon and did a week's work on the script for Transylvania Twist with Jim Wynorski. He was fired at the behest of Roger Corman.
