As we entre Year Seven of Cape’s Side Bay being published, I wanted to send an update and let you all know that over the past 6 months Cape’s Side Bay has been worked on and is now in its FINAL stages before publishing.
At this time the book is ready, edited, and all that fun stuff that goes within the book. We still need a cover, and artwork, and some other things but I am told it will be published sometime early this year.
I really hope it is. Seven years ago I waited until Cape’s Side Bay was at a place I was happy enough with that it could be published, and after many many many many many many delays we are almost ready.
I apologize for the wait. I hope it’s worth it. When I hear new updates I will let you know.
I know it has been a while... a long long while, but, here I am with an update. Earlier today I submitted the final manuscript for Cape’s Side Bay, again. The book has been complete for over 6 years and I have been told it will be published this year. Originally I was told Q1 but that does not seem to be the case.
Hopefully I will have a publishing date soon. If I do not, and you no long we wish to support me on Inkshares, I have been informed that you can cancel and receive a full refund.
I did not begin my crowdfudning campaign until I had a completed manuscript I felt was ready for final edits, had I known it would take 6+ years, I am not sure I would have strung you all along.
I am sorry for this, I do hope when you finally receive your copy you enjoy it.
And I am sure you’ve all forgotten what it is about, so it will be a fresh read!
Hello everyone I hope you are doing well! Just wanted to let everyone know that was are still on track for a Spring/Summer production of Cape’s Side Bay. I know it’s been a long time coming (4 years!) but, it’s coming!
I just wanted to let everyone know about my Christmas book that is available now on both Paperback and eBook (Kindle & Kobo)! It’s a collection of six Christmas stories, that I hope will get you into the Holiday Spirit! You can order via the links below!
For everyone who has supported Cape’s Side Bay I would like to once again thank you! It has been a long time since this book began it’s Inkshares journey.
My goal was not to begin crowdfunding (selling) the book on the site until it was completely written. When the book was complete in 2014 I began my page on Inkshares, and began taking pre-orders. I knew the book would go through several stages of editing even after hitting my goal, but I also knew I had a finished book and so there was no intent on anyone waiting long for their copy of Cape’s Side Bay.
It has been six years. Crazy to think. Inkshares has change a lot during these years, at one point the book would not be published properly by the site, then that changed in 2016 when they held a contest and Cape’s Side Bay finished first.
The book over the past two years has gone through several edits and revisions and I am very happy with where it stands. Maybe a few more changes (small) along the way, but I have recently spoken to Adam Gomolin the CEO of Inkshares, and I have been told Cape’s Side Bay will be published Spring/Summer 2021.
I am sorry it has taken this long, and there is still some time. It is a process, I just sincerely hope you all enjoy the book when you finally have it in your hands!
Happy 2020 everyone! I wanted to send this out to inform you all of the status of Cape’s Side Bay.
It is currently being edited.
it has been a rocky 4 years trying to get this book published here but early last year it took a turn for the better and we have decided to continue with publishing Cape’s Side Bay on inkshares.
I will be editing the novel while working with an editor, and we will bring you the best possible Cape’s Side Bay we can!
Writing. Editing. Writing. Editing. That’s been a typical day the last little while (those that’s a lie, I was on vacation for several days last week).
Just wanted to update everyone who has supported me and this book, and are not on the Facebook page, to let you know that things are moving. I don’t yet know when the book will be published but we are in the midst of editing. As progress develops I will let you know!
I know it has been a long long time since any of you have heard anything from me. 2016 and Cape’s Side Bay got interesting.
At one point I thought we had hit full publishing, then it turned out we hadn’t, and the book was in limbo. I spoke with Inkshares and they were great, but I still wasn’t sure about the future of the book. Then, randomly, in November I received an email informing me that Cape’s Side Bay would be a participant in THE LIST contest. The final Inkshares contest of 2016. It was a contest were the participants were selected by Inkshares staff and peers. It meant a lot to me to see Cape’s Side Bay get a nomination. I, however, was exhausted and still not sure if participating in the list was something I had the energy to do. Ultimiately I decided it was worth a shot, and someone we were able to come out on top!
Cape’s Side Bay is getting published! It took a little longer than anticipated, but we did it. I could not have done it without all of you.
Thanks especially to my wife Erin for putting up with me and obsessing over the orders! And to my family and friends! It was quite an experience, one that has only just started.
A special congratulations to the other two books, Murder at the Veterans Club by Christopher Huang. When I first started thinking about my campaign I spoke to Christopher several times and he was a great help. I am extremely pleased to see his book reach full publishing!
Sorcery for Beginners by Matt Harry. He came up strong towards the end of the campaign and manage to bump up in the list and finish top 3!
I look forward to reading these books, and I look forward to all of you reading Cape’s Side Bay.
Also, please check out the Inkshares blog to fully understand the timeline in which you can expect Cape’s Side Bay. It will take around a year, but it will be worth it!
And if you haven’t ordered Cape’s Side Bay yet you STILL CAN! And at a discounted price! SAY WHHAAAATT?
Here we go! Officially 2 weeks left in the campaign!
It’s been a long 5 months and somewhat bitter sweet that the end of pre-orders is fast approaching.
We have just under 50 orders to go, ideally I’d love to hit that before the 2 weeks are up (this way I can take a much needed nap sooner!), but, you guys have been unbelievably supportive and somehow become more so with each passing day. I cannot thank you enough for the recommendations, the reviews, the prologue recommendations, and of course the orders.

Today, with 2 weeks left, I’ll share the water colour painting my friend did for Cape’s Side Bay back in March (it was later used by fellow Inkshares author Tabi Card in the cover art you see on the page).
Happy New Year!
