It was a fun interview and I went on for a while - the bits where I discussed the humour of the ballads and Robin’s courtesy and chivalry didn’t quite make the cut. But medieval heroes are often many things at once, and that’s truer of Robin Hood than any of them.
I'm so thrilled to announce that The Traitor of Sherwood Forest is a finalist for the Star Award from the WFWA!

It Ends With Her, a sapphic horror anthology, is out tomorrow and I am really, really, really proud of my story for it. I think it's one of the best things I've written in a while.

I don’t know what to tell you, man. I’m a medieval historian, and, in my field, if you don’t check your sources (and your sources’ sources) you are just asking to be taken for a ride by some bored 19th C. aristocratic English antiquarian with a penchant for inventing history.
If you want fiction that looks at the medieval #RobinHood with a critical eye, I recommend The Traitor of Sherwood Forest by @askaufman.bsky.social interview: www.boldoutlaw.com/robint/amy-k...
