Teaser Tuesday: The Magical Mayhem of Darwin

Posted on August 16, 2022 by Charles Yallowitz

Try as I might, I can’t avoid showing what Darwin is capable of.  I talk about the chaos he can create, but I don’t believe I’ve put up a scene where you see him in action.  The chase kind of … Continue reading →

Teaser Tuesday: The Calm of Clouds

Posted on August 9, 2022 by Charles Yallowitz

It’s another conversation teaser.  Really hope people are enjoying these since I want to establish Darwin and his relationships.  The big one is with his cousin who also acts like a big brother and protector.  I loved how their relationship … Continue reading →

Teaser Tuesday: Nocturnal Chat

Posted on August 2, 2022 by Charles Yallowitz

I really liked this exchange between Darwin and one of his friends.  It was kind of sweet since they were just getting to understand each other.  You get a good sense of how Darwin thinks too.

Teaser Tuesday: Everyone Wants Darwin

Posted on July 26, 2022 by Charles Yallowitz

As I said, the action scenes are different for Darwin.  He runs away and causes chaos a lot, so you won’t get tons of head-t0-head battles.  That’s just not his style.  So, I hope this gives you a decent idea … Continue reading →

Teaser Tuesday: The Twins

Posted on July 19, 2022 by Charles Yallowitz

I should really introduce the rest of Darwin’s friends.  This time it’s the twins, Maeve Darkholm and Brid Lightholm.  They’re actually conjoined twins, which is a big part of their story.  Originally, they were both female, but I changed Brid … Continue reading →

Teaser Tuesday: This is NOT an Evil Tree

Posted on July 12, 2022 by Charles Yallowitz

Is this a spoiler?  Not really because I want this tree on the cover.  In fact, this scene is a variation of what happened in the first game I played as Darwin.  Arlinger and him found evil artifacts and wanted … Continue reading →

Teaser Tuesday: Darwin’s First Spell

Posted on July 5, 2022 by Charles Yallowitz

So, I’m going to do more Slumberlord Chronicles: Darwin & the Fate Bracelet excerpts through the summer.  I was thinking about stuff that would make things interesting, which is tough since I didn’t have my usual type of action.  I was worried … Continue reading →

Should My Fantasy Races Hate Each Other?

Posted on May 13, 2022 by Charles Yallowitz

(I was going to write a post about the traditional Elves vs Dwarves in fantasy.  Instead, I realized I had a lengthy section of Do I Need to Use a Dragon? (Fantasy Writing Tips) that covered the topic of racism in fantasy.  … Continue reading →

Teaser Tuesday: Building a New Steed

Posted on November 30, 2021 by Charles Yallowitz

Today, we’re going to focus on Bob . . . Not as easy as I would like.  He’s a fun character to write, but he works best when used sparingly.  Also, best when he’s with other characters who act as … Continue reading →

Teaser Tuesday: Don’t Feed the Puppy

Posted on November 23, 2021 by Charles Yallowitz

Kind of a jarring jump from all the fantasy teasers since July and now you have something from Chasing Bedlam.  Well, you know that poll from June?  Cassidy and Lloyd each got a vote.  I’m giving them a shared scene because … Continue reading →
