Ten Things Not to Do on a Guest Post for Charles Yallowitz (By John Howell)

Posted on October 3, 2018 by Charles Yallowitz

(A big welcome to John and a thank you for this funny post. Everyone enjoy!)

The inspiration for this post was an invitation to join Charles for a guest slot. In thinking on what I could write about it came to me that he and I have two different worlds in which we write. He is an excellent fantasy author, and I do thrillers. I put on my imagination hat and started to think of all the characters and situations one could run into if you visited Charles’ place. If you get a chance to join Charles on his blog keep this list handy.

10 If you are guest posting on Charles Yallowitz’s blog, do not drink anything. If you do, at best it will really be water. At worst, it will be one of the potions that can cause a horn to grow out of your forehead. (Now don’t you look foolish Christopher. At least you have a place to hang your hat.)

9 If you are guest posting on Charles Yallowitz’s blog, do not bring Tiny the WWF champ along for the ride. If you do, at best he’ll want to stay in the car. At worst, he will come in and be confronted by a winged dragon. (Now you’ll have to pay for that missing wall, Caleb. You forgot that Tiny doesn’t use doors when he is afraid.)

8 If you are guest posting on Charles Yallowitz’s blog, do not touch any buttons. If you do, at best you’ll hit the deli delivery button. At worst, your button will cause the floor to fall away. ( And now, Cameron you can be heard screaming as you continue to drop through the seven layers of hell in the bottomless abyss.)

7 If you are guest posting on Charles Yallowitz’s blog, do not pick up that magic bow. If you do, at best the spell has been lifted. At worst, you’ll find yourself in another land being chased by a herd of stainless steel horned water buffalo. ( Maybe you can catch a stray Griffen and fly out of harm’s way, Connor.)

6 If you are guest posting on Charles Yallowitz’s blog, do not talk to anyone who has the first name of Dawn. If you do, at best you might get a good morning. At worst, you could find yourself holding your own severed head while trying to put out the fire in your pants. (You really didn’t say anything wrong, Christian. Dawn Addison is a very unusual individual is all.)

5 If you are guest posting on Charles Yallowitz’s blog, do not go into the Ye Olde Spell Shoppe. If you do, at best you’ll look and not buy. At worst, you’ll be convinced to try the invisible spell only to discover there is no antidote. (You’ve seen the movie “The Invisible Man,” haven’t you, Cody. Just get a wrap for your head and some really weird sunglasses. No one will know until you take them off.)

4 If you are guest posting on Charles Yallowitz’s blog, do not sit on that comfy looking chair. If you do, at best the chair will recognize you as an innocent. At worst, it is a follower of one of the evil ones and is now consuming you as if it were a venus flytrap. (I’ve heard a little cayenne pepper will make it stop, Cole. Oh, you don’t have any. Well, see you around.)

3 If you are guest posting on Charles Yallowitz’s blog, do not accept a ride home in a jeep from anyone named Cassidy who has a sidekick named Lloyd. If you do, at best your home is only a block away. At worst, you will find yourself on a wild ride that will make Mr. Toad look like a geriatric. (So tired of being shot at huh Carlos? Ask Lloyd if you can borrow a gun, so maybe you can shoot back. All he has is a grenade launcher? Well that will do.)

2 If you are guest posting on Charles Yallowitz’s blog, do not joke about hiring Ichabod Brooks the mercenary to take out your Fantasy Football rival. If you do, at best he will be too busy. At worst, you will get an invoice for services rendered plus expenses. (The one thing you don’t want to do right now, Cooper is not paying the bill. Yes, your joke went too far, but at least you may win the league championships. Not paying has dire consequences.)

1 If you are guest posting on Charles Yallowitz’s blog, do not pick up any bunnies that you think are strays. If you do, at best someone will take the animal away quickly. At worst, you will witness the transformation from bunny to killing machine. (Unfortunately, the bunny thinks you are a threat, Carter. I would run fast while you still have a nose.)
