Posted on December 12, 2015 by Charles Yallowitz

Okay, so it might not be that bad.  Normally I would save this for the goal post, but I felt like talking about it separately.  Mostly because tomorrow’s post is going to be more about another topic.  Getting hard to … Continue reading →

Teaser Tuesday: Running Through Visindor

Posted on December 1, 2015 by Charles Yallowitz

While I don’t know when The Mercenary Prince will debut, I can pull a few small excerpts.  This is part of the intro and shouldn’t reveal more than Delvin’s mindset.  He has a ‘Nyx’ moment.
