Chris Stirling - Historical Fiction Author

I'm Chris Stirling, author of Crimson Cross: Azure Waves (Book One of the Crimson Cross Chronicles), and I'm obsessed with getting the Golden Age of Piracy right.

Most pirate stories are romanticized fantasies. I dig through the history to write adventure fiction grounded in surprising historical truth—the democratic crews, strategic brilliance, and brutal realities that Hollywood missed.

On this channel, you'll get:
⚓ Shocking pirate facts from primary sources
📝 Behind-the-scenes of writing historical adventure
🗺️ Real maritime life in the Caribbean (1698-1700)
✍️ The author journey from research to manuscript

Join me as I bring authentic piracy to life—both on the page and on screen.
