Background
Once upon a time, in the far-away land of my imagination, I envisioned a new life for our Lovely Lady in which she would love again and be loved as never before. And so, Royce Wardell was created. Then I found that the overflow of their love and devotion might be shared, and in a deserted line shack, a baby girl drew her first breath. Rescued from death in the arms of her mother, she came to the arms of Victoria and Royce, and a family was born. 
The story possibilities for this new family unit were, I found, endless. As I wrote one story, the idea for another cropped up. After awhile, I decided that these stories needed a home of their own, and so The Kate Chronicles came into being. New stories will be added regularly.

If you find they bring a tear�or a chuckle�or a sentimental sigh�or, if a story brings back some warm but long-buried memory�I am gratified. 

This is not a members site. That is what the Big Valley Writing Desk is for. You will find a link to it at the bottom of this page. Also, I have not provided a place where any of the stories can be commented upon. That is also the business of the Writing Desk. If you have thoughts, comments, or ideas and would like to email me, feel free to do so. 

Thank you for visiting and for reading. I hope you�ve had a pleasant stay.

It is my hope that, by writing fan fiction, we are keeping alive one of the most beloved western series of all time.
