The Reckoning


Rusty began writing this story for a zine that never got off the ground.
Then, when another zine came along, Rusty finished the fic and submitted
it to the second publication. When that zine didn't pan out, Rusty decided to try
posting it here. I thought about dismantling Troubadour's Tales altogether and
really rattling Rusty's chains, but that seemed unnecessarily cruel, even for me. *g*

The Last Squire


This story first appeared in...well...a number of issues of Raconteur.
It was inspired by the numerous Arthurian stories that Rusty has read
over the years (Just count the allusions, baby!), whether for a university
course, personal interest or whatever. Rusty also did a bit of research on
Chivalric Romances before writing this fic. Okay, maybe the story doesn't read
that way, but Rusty really did do some research for this thing! *g*

The Knight's Charges


This story was originally published in Tales of Sherwood Forest.
It's a short little comedy that was written pretty quickly.
Deadlines. Apparently, Rusty can meet those for other editors! *g*

Silent Knight


When Rusty couldn’t write another part of “The Last Squire”
in time for Issue Nine of Raconteur, Rusty decided to pursue an
extremely strange idea and write a little Christmas story
called “Silent Knight”. If you survived “The Varlet,” you have
a pretty good chance of getting through this, er…interesting
fic… Remember: it’s the thought that counts! *g*

The Varlet


This very bizarre parody was originally
published in issues 3 and 4 of Raconteur.
Rusty would like to thank Ms. Robertson
for all of her patience and support and
for publishing this story in the first place.

Children of the Wheel II


As you may have guessed, this is a sequel to Children of the Wheel.
As of this date, the story remains incomplete. I believe that Rusty is trying
to set a record for the longest continuing WIP on the Net. While, I'd like to
think that Rusty will finish this story one day, I don't think it's likely somehow.

Robin Hood and the Sheriff's Mother


Cat commissioned Rusty to write a Sheriff story
of at least one page. However, as Rusty has
always found it exceedingly difficult to keep
within such limits, Rusty's written more. Rusty has also strayed
a bit from the original topic and written about the Sheriff's
mother, but I'm sure Rusty meant well...Maybe.

As you may have already surmised, "Robin Hood
and the Sheriff's Mother" leans more towards comedy than
anything else!

Children of the Wheel


Rusty wrote this novella between 1992
and 1994. It was originally intended for "The Turn of
the Wheel" zine, which posed the question: "What would
have happened if Edmond of Gisburne had died in the
Crusades?" Rusty didn't get the novella published
but has endeavoured to edit and revise this manuscript
for "Troubadour's Tales." Rusty asked me to provide the
following introduction:

This novella is set immediately after "The Time of the Wolf"
and refers to incidents from both this story
and previous episodes. Unfortunately, some characters
were injured, maimed, or killed during the making
of this story. Rusty extends the deepest apologies.
