Does Romance End an Adventure?

Posted on April 14, 2025 by Charles Yallowitz

I’ve run into this opinion before: “Romance does not belong in any genres other than romance.” This goes double for when it’s added to an adventure-based fantasy.  Some people hate if there’s even a hint at anything more than characters … Continue reading →

Teaser Tuesday: Open Winged Greeting

Posted on October 8, 2024 by Charles Yallowitz

Here’s another excerpt from Quest of the Brokenhearted and it’s the introduction of a fun supporting character.  Lacarsis was a monster-making playground for me and I needed to think of a great way to start the tournament.  For some reason, this … Continue reading →

Questions 3 and Looking Back at ‘Nytefall: Loyalty’

Posted on July 2, 2024 by Charles Yallowitz

Here we are at the start of the War of Nytefall recollections.  Not sure what else to call it and my brain isn’t braining as well as it should.  Loyalty is what started the series that depicts the vampire civil war of Windemere … Continue reading →

Questions 3 and Looking Back at ‘Crossing Bedlam’

Posted on June 11, 2024 by Charles Yallowitz

This was my first big foray into a non-fantasy genre.  I’d dabbled in a few others, but this was the one I published.  Crossing Bedlam was originally going to be a one-shot until I came up with other ideas that could work … Continue reading →

Questions 3 and Looking Back at ‘Ritual of the Lost Lamb’

Posted on May 14, 2024 by Charles Yallowitz

This book had so many title changes that it was ridiculous.  I don’t even know how I ended up on Ritual of the Lost Lamb.  The strangest part is that there wasn’t a ritual until after I wrote the title.  It … Continue reading →

Questions 3 and Looking Back at ‘The Spirit Well’

Posted on May 7, 2024 by Charles Yallowitz

This book finished the champion power center arc of Legends of Windemere.  It was a tough one to write too because I needed closure and setting up the final arc.  Those types of books always make my head spin, which leads … Continue reading →

Questions 3 and Looking Back at ‘Charms of the Feykin’

Posted on April 30, 2024 by Charles Yallowitz

Here we are at the other half of the split team story.  Charms of the Feykin doesn’t really follow Delvin, Sari, and Fizzle alone.  They got a few scenes in the previous volume to create suspense about their adventure.  This starts … Continue reading →

Questions 3 and Looking Back at ‘Tribe of the Snow Tiger’

Posted on April 23, 2024 by Charles Yallowitz

Back to the temples in Tribe of the Snow Tiger.  This is the 10th volume of Legends of Windemere and started feeling like the homestretch.  At least, as far as the writing side goes.  Probably felt more like Act 4 of the … Continue reading →

Questions 3 and Looking Back at ‘The Merchant of Nevra Coil’

Posted on April 2, 2024 by Charles Yallowitz

This is the 8th volume of Legends of Windemere.  The funny thing is how this book was not really planned and came about because I needed something to happen to make volume 9 work.  The Merchant of Nevra Coil ended up solving … Continue reading →

Questions 3 and a Look Back at ‘Sleeper of the Wildwood Fugue’

Posted on March 26, 2024 by Charles Yallowitz

Sleeper of the Wildwood Fugue had a lot going on.  The big thing was introducing Dariana, who was the final champion.  I was going to make her origins a big reveal later, but realized that it might be more interesting to … Continue reading →
