Teaser Tuesday: A Merchant and His Assassin

Posted on August 23, 2022 by Charles Yallowitz

I haven’t really highlighted any of the villains.  One needs to remain a secret, but I have these two fun ones.  Really enjoyed writing Urian Coy because I don’t get to do pompous merchants as often as I’d like.  Eris … Continue reading →

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 →

Posted on August 15, 2022 by Charles Yallowitz

First, what is racial homogeneity?  This is when a neighborhood, city, town, or country has only one race or group.  In the real world, this would be an area that has only Jews or Italians or Jamaicans.  No other groups … 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 →
