Posted on March 18, 2020 by Charles Yallowitz

This came up in conversation and I thought about while coming to the end of War of Nytefall: Eradication.  When writing a series, you tend to have 3 types of books: The opener, which introduces at least some characters, begins … Continue reading →

Posted on March 11, 2020 by Charles Yallowitz

Leading up to War of Nytefall: Eradication, I had really stayed within the vampire world for enemies.  You did have Duragians being a major first in Loyalty and they return in this volume.  Yet, there was a third faction that appeared from … Continue reading →

The Challenge of Balancing a Large Cast

Posted on March 2, 2020 by Charles Yallowitz

The biggest challenge with War of Nytefall is that I’m working with a really large cast of main and constant secondary characters.  Clyde may be the main one, but all of his friends and enemies make appearances in every book.  At least … Continue reading →

Posted on February 28, 2020 by Charles Yallowitz

Nothing Planned . . . Might As Well Ask For More Volunteers

Posted on December 26, 2019 by Charles Yallowitz

With Derailing Bedlam done and Immortal Wars not starting for a bit, I have nothing really planned for today.  Almost didn’t realize this also.  In the midst of writing too, so I don’t want to get into anything complicated.  That leaves me … Continue reading →

Legends Revisited: Baron Arthuru Kernaghan the Forgotten Warlord #fantasy #adventure

Posted on December 24, 2019 by Charles Yallowitz

While he didn’t show up a lot, the Legends of Windemere wouldn’t have gone anywhere without Baron Arthuru Kernaghan.  He typically only appeared in prologues with a few mid-book scenes until I reached the 12th book.  Even then, he only got a … Continue reading →

Revisiting Legends: Trinity the Queen of Shayd #fantasy #adventure

Posted on December 10, 2019 by Charles Yallowitz

Where to even begin with Trinity?  Over the course of Legends of Windemere, she has worn the mask of a villain, hero, savior, tormentor, victim, friend, rival, and a few others.  I think she’s the most diverse one of the whole cast … Continue reading →
