I normally post my monthly newsletter on the first day of every month, but this year I missed that deadline, partly because it was the Christmas season and I've been spending more time with my kids than working, and partly because my WiFi went down on New Year's Eve. But here I am at last, and as the old saying goes, better late than never!!!

Even though the run-up to Christmas is traditionally a quiet time of year, I have plenty to report about in my first newsletter of 2022. There's an irreverent (I almost typed "irrelevant," which would have been embarrassing!) new podcast interview with me... I talk about what I'm working on at the moment, and give a hint about what might be just around the corner... there's an extended eBook sale that might be of interest to people who haven't yet started my Archibald Lox series... links to new reviews and articles about my books... and lots more.

So, won't you come and join me and raise a virtual glass of the red stuff with me (I'm talking about blood, of course!!!) in honour of the 258th edition of my Shanville Monthly newsletter, by clicking here: https://darrenshan.com/news/shanville-monthly
