Hello Cape’s Side Readers!
Here we are with under 20 days remaining! Unbelievable! Feels like yesterday I click the green button and made the campaign LIVE!
There isn’t enough space in these update messages to thank every person that has helped me along the way. The support given by friends, family, and the people here on Inkshares has been unbelievable and I am forever grateful.
With 19 days to go I wanted to do a bit of a throwback, of sorts, with a sketch from a chapter in the book. I won’t get away any specifics on it as it happens later on, but a friend of mine drew it and I really like it. I did post it in an update previously, but that was in March. I can’t believe we are already in mid August!
Labour Day is close at hand, and that is when Cape’s Side Bay takes place & the campaign comes to an end!

Enjoy your day, your summer, and everything in between (hopefully pre-ordering Cape’s Side Bay fits in there)!
What?? What?? What?? One Murder More = Finalist for 2016 Silver Falchion award in THREE categories: Best First Novel, Mystery/Crime Novel and The Judges’ Choice Award! Past finalists for the Silver Falchion include Stephen King, John Sanborn, John Lescroart and Robert Dugoni. I’m headed to Nashville this weekend for the awards banquet at the incomparable #KillerNashville conference! Will I see you there? (C’mon, use those miles, it’s Nashville!) "Killer Nashville is one of the most popular conferences in the country for writers and readers... Established by writer and filmmaker Clay Stafford in 2006, the conference assists authors in the craft of mystery, thriller, suspense and crime fiction writing. Stafford and American Blackguard, Inc. also work to further various literacy programs throughout the year. As a part of both encouraging and rewarding writers in their varied fields, the Silver Falchion Award is given to outstanding books published in the previous year." Thanks for taking this journey with me, and thanks to Inkshares for an incredible partnership! Kris www.kriscalvin.com
The Knightmares Prologue: What came before. What paved the way.
PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA. JUNE 1752
Did anybody ask Benjamin Franklin why he tied a key at the end of his famous Lightning and Kite experiment? Sure, it was metal and it conducted electricity, but why a key? Nobody ever questions genius. When Albert Einstein came up with the theory of relativity, nobody with a common brain ever sat there and said prove it, and anybody with a scientific brain wouldn’t . . .
