Helen Hollick the author of a bazillion books including the 6 volume Sea Witch Voyages and the upcoming non-fiction Pirates Truth and Tales coming out in May 2017.

We'll dig into Helen's career as a writer and what led her from writing historical fantasy to pirate tales. And we talk a lot about the pros and cons of self-publishing vs working with a big publisher.

Plus I'll tell you a bit about my trip to Paisley Park while I was in Minneapolis.
