Revisiting Origins: Kira Grasdon

Posted on September 19, 2023 by Charles Yallowitz

Within the pages of Legends of Windemere, one character will always stand out to me as the wild card.  The reason is because she was unexpected, but she also developed a really big love/hate relationship with readers.  Some seemed to hate … Continue reading →

Posted on September 12, 2023 by Charles Yallowitz

Fizzle is probably the most popular character of Legends of Windemere.  He isn’t a champion, but he might as well be in the eyes of some readers.  It reached a point where I was getting requests for a Fizzle book.  This … Continue reading →

Revisiting Origins: Dariana

Posted on September 5, 2023 by Charles Yallowitz

(I know I had this going in May and then took a 3 month hiatus to promote Do I Need to Use a Dragon?  So, I’m hoping just jumping right back into things is okay.  I only made it through 5 … Continue reading →

Posted on May 30, 2023 by Charles Yallowitz

(Delvin Cunningham had a similar path as Timoran Wrath.  After a cameo, he officially debuted in Family of the Tri-Rune.  He showed up rather close to the end of that book, but proved himself going forward.  This would result in him … Continue reading →

Revisiting Origins: Timoran Wrath

Posted on May 23, 2023 by Charles Yallowitz

Revisiting Origins: Sari

Posted on May 16, 2023 by Charles Yallowitz

(Time for Legends of Windemere champion #3.  That would be Sari who started off in a bad spot and seemed to routinely find trouble.  Her debut was in Allure of the Gypsies, which also caused a fairly big stir among what few readers … Continue reading →

Flashbacks: Fun with Timeline Tampering

Posted on August 1, 2022 by Charles Yallowitz

I don’t use flashbacks because they never really worked for Third-Person Present tense writing.  At least in my mind.  If I’m showing what’s going on now then jumping into the past can make things confusing.  Of course, I have an … Continue reading →

Posted on July 21, 2021 by Charles Yallowitz

I’ve actually thought of this issue a lot since my teenage years, but I never knew there was a term for it until now.  It may be nuanced, but the gist is: Superhero Paradox–  Superheroes try to make the world … Continue reading →

Outline Time . . . Trouble Already?

Posted on April 25, 2021 by Charles Yallowitz

First, I don’t really know if that’s an Irish proverb.  Just liked the sound of it when looking for sleep quotes.  Why do I think this is what’s going to get a lot of comments? The reason I went for … Continue reading →
