Posted on November 19, 2024 by Charles Yallowitz

Here’s an excerpt from Quest of the Brokenhearted.  This is part of a bigger scene, which I trimmed down the best I could.  It shows what became of Kira Grasdon about the battle with Baron Kernaghan.  My original plan had … Continue reading →

Posted on November 14, 2024 by Charles Yallowitz

(No idea what I was thinking of here.  Probably just letting my imagination running wild.  Makes next week’s poem even more amusing.) Sun rising Above the lunder trees Mottled leaves Of blue and gray Glinting Like dull-edged daggers   The … Continue reading →

Teaser Tuesday: A Guest!

Posted on November 12, 2024 by Charles Yallowitz

Here’s an old excerpt from War of Nytefall: Lost.  This involves Stephanie, who was the ritualist of Xavier Tempest’s team.  She didn’t get as much page time as the stronger personalities.  Still, I had fun when I did find a … Continue reading →

Teaser Tuesday: Mindscape Mayhem

Posted on November 5, 2024 by Charles Yallowitz

Always enjoyed this scene from Legends of Windemere: The Compass Key.  I should have characters get trapped and do battle in their brains more often.  Though, this was an aspect of Sari still being mentally damaged, which is something that … Continue reading →

First teaser after Quest of the Brokenhearted went live for 99 cents.  So, exciting.  While this isn’t Kira’s first battle in the story, this is the first official champion that she faces.  I had a lot of fun writing the scene … Continue reading →

Poetry Day: Monster City

Posted on October 24, 2024 by Charles Yallowitz

(A fun little poem about a city living on top of a giant.  Pretty sure this stemmed from the first ‘God of War’ game where you reach a temple on a Titan’s back.) Metropolis up high On a monster’s flattened … Continue reading →

Teaser Tuesday: Hyde the Grumbling Gremlin

Posted on October 22, 2024 by Charles Yallowitz

Not much of a set up here.  This is the introduction for Hyde who is a crafting gremlin that helps Kira Grasdon out.  I really need to remember this species though.  Crafting gremlins turned out to be a great creation.  … Continue reading →

Teaser Tuesday: We Swear It Is NOT An Evil Tree

Posted on October 15, 2024 by Charles Yallowitz

For some reason, the original teaser post I had for today disappeared.  Glad I checked.  I decided to re-post this one that involves Darwin and Arlinger.  Hopefully it makes sense without all the context, but it was always one of … 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 →
