With only three more days to go until Christmas we are all celebrating our last day in the office until we get an emergency call saying the pipes have broken or until 29th December – whichever comes first. (our money is on the pipes breaking on Christmas Day).

We’ve been busy setting up lots of things to keep people entertained over the Christmas break including a discount on Shroud of Darkness! If you got to Smashwords and add Shroud of Darkness to your basket and at the checkout enter the code LV29T you’ll get the book for FREE! You can also get Rising Empire: Part 1 for free from Smashwords too.

Our web gremlins have been hard at work to bring you some all new pages for the Chronicles of Celadmore section that include the different festivals that the peoples of Celadmore have celebrated throughout history. We’ve timed it so that these pages will go live on Christmas Day and give a little bit more depth and history to the realm.

Keep your eyes on tumblr as well as the Nicolette Mace: the Raven Siren page is going to be full of exclusive photos from behind the scenes of the rehearsal for the filming of Siren & Blade.

On 1st January we will also have the first of the maps of Celadmore going live so you can see the world whilst you read about it. The maps will only be going live online but there are plans to turn them into posters if we can find a high enough print quality and a large enough poster for the map size (you’ll see our dilemma when the map is up). There will be more maps rolling out during 2015 including city maps as well as maps across the eras and even the family trees for different lines of royalty.

There are three Nicolette Mace blogs going live on the blogspot blog between now and New Years Day. We aren’t sure whether there will be another 12 days of Christmas Reprise posted on Christmas Day as C.S. Woolley is keeping that under wraps but I guess we’ll just have to wait and hope just like everyone else.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from everyone in the offices and our authors!
