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.

Poetry Day: The Human Dog

Posted on May 7, 2026 by Charles Yallowitz

(Here’s the partner to ‘The Human Cat’.  Maybe I have a preference here though.  It’s weird because I’ve never had either as a pet.  Never sure if I’d be able to handle a cat or dog too.  Mostly, I’m not … Continue reading →

Posted on May 4, 2026 by Charles Yallowitz

(Originally posted on September 28, 2020.) This might be simplifying up above, but it does come off that way at times.  As I said on Friday, War of Nytefall: Ravenous has a very serious subplot that deals with addiction.  You might be … Continue reading →
