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.

This might be something that I revisit later, but I realized recently that I never brought up this anomaly in War of Nytefall.  For some quick background, the Garians are a holy order who follow Gar the God of Knowledge.  Those … Continue reading →

Here’s a fun excerpt from War of Nytefall: Rivalry.  I was originally going to do this scene the other way around, but couldn’t pass up the opportunity for humor.  I don’t think Clyde would either, which is why this makes sense … Continue reading →

Personal Anthem?

Posted on November 1, 2020 by Charles Yallowitz

I’ve been thinking a while about doing a list of songs that show how I’m feeling or describe myself.  It’s something that I’ve done in the past, but it’s fun to use newer songs.  To be honest, I haven’t had … Continue reading →
