We invite all our friends to help us support the cause of Books For Soldiers.
Help us by donating books to our military men and women serving overseas. Donate a book at the next SCA event by dropping it in our green tourney chest (constructed by Master Thorvald), or by making a money donation of any size to help defray the costs of postage. Everyone who donates (books or postage) will receive a raffle ticket to WIN the tourney box, to be raffled at Coronation.

“
Someday ... I want to fight in a real castle!”
Guillaume first uttered those words nearly 10 years ago — recently his wish came true. Read all about it (with lots of pictures and even streaming video) in his account of
The Chepstow Tournament.
A wonderful guest essay by Atenveldt’s Duke Arthur of Lockehaven who looks back on three decades of SCA experience and wonders how the often-cited “dream” and the real ideals of honor and chivalry go together.
A hilarious guest article by Ron L. Toms chronicling his attempt to build a medieval war machine capable of hurling him and his (trusting) friends into a nearby river on a hot Texas summer afternoon.

The Holidays Are Here — Why Not Enjoy Them?
From Halloween to Yule to the first day of Spring, the holidays are hilarious all year long with Guillaume’s fractured folklore. Check out this wonderfully irreverent audio CD, entitled: “Guillaume for the Holidays.” Just jump to the market square to learn about vampire zuchinnis, Viking Christmas pyrotechnics, Easter drinking customs and New Year’s Day and the end of the world. It’s Guillaume’s typically warped (yet still surprisingly factual) look at medieval holiday customs and folklore.
With more and more kingdom newsletters running Guillaume’s syndicated columns, we’re delighted to welcome new readers to this this website from across the Known World. We hope you are ready to explore the SCA through a whole new perspective — which means, we hope you have a little irreverence, a lot of patience and a rather warped sense of humor. Guillaume’s writing is definitely “unique.”
If you would like to read some (or some more) of Sir Guillaume’s humorous writings about life in the SCA, you have come to the right place. Just enter the Library and you can enjoy several stories — including several complete articles you won’t find anywhere but on this website. If you purchased one of Guillaume’s books and/or CDs at a recent tourney or war, we hope you’re enjoying them. If you want to buy more of Guillaume’s products, just follow this link to the SirGuillaume.com Market Square.
But Wait, There’s More!
Read an interesting author's interview with Sir Guillaume which was published in The Pennsic Independent Daily News on-line.
Don’t Miss This: Two collectors’ books are now available exclusively through SirGuillaume.com — “Calafia Remembers” and “Calafian Meditations.” Quantities are limited — see the Market Square (in the left-hand navigation bar) for more details. Guillaume’s book “This Sovereign Stage,” reflections on the drama of the passing of the Crown, is also still available.
Some of Guillaume’s (Rare) Serious Thoughts can be found at his “other” website, Chivalry Today.
