About Charles Yallowitz

Charles E. Yallowitz was born, raised, and educated in New York. Then he spent a few years in Florida, realized his fear of alligators, and moved back to the Empire State. When he isn't working hard on his epic fantasy stories, Charles can be found cooking or going on whatever adventure his son has planned for the day. 'Legends of Windemere' is his first series, but it certainly won't be his last.

Don’t ‘Black Knight’ Your Characters

Posted on June 12, 2013 by Charles Yallowitz

One thing that drives me nuts is when I read a book or watch a movie/TV show and characters ignore injuries.  Running full-speed with a broken leg, bouncing around with busted ribs, and so many other mistakes that seem sloppy. … Continue reading →

Posted on June 11, 2013 by Charles Yallowitz

So Ends the Experiment?

Posted on June 10, 2013 by Charles Yallowitz

Yesterday, I sold 1 book, which is normal for a Sunday.  It typically sucks.  The problem is that it carries over into a weak Monday, but this is abysmal.  I’m eying that $2.99 price tag because it’s the only thing … Continue reading →
