Welcome to Bold Fish Publishing –
the place for bold and authentic writers
I started Bold Fish Publishing in 2023 after releasing my own book, AudaciousNess—a book that emerged from a podcast that I co-hosted with my good friend Maribel Ortega.During the previous two years, Maribel and I interviewed a total of 41 people who had done utterly audacious things in their lives. We were so moved by their inspirational stories that we decided to collate everything we had learned into one concise volume.What became clear to me during the publishing process was that writing, editing and proofreading is something that a) I enjoy, b) I'm good at, and c) the world needs.To that end, I decided to offer my support to other bold and authentic souls who would like to get their message out and make their voices heard at this critical time in our human story—a time that calls for fearless women and men to step up, take the lead and find the courage to do the audacious work the world so desperately needs right now.If you’ve landed here because you are one of those fearless souls with a crucial message to share, then drop me a line in the form below and we’ll have a call to discover whether our purposes are aligned.And if you'd like to see what other authors are publishing, click on the BOOKS link to browse the current titles.With love,

What the authors are saying
“Collaborating with Helen on our first book was an incredible experience. Despite both of us being new to the world of authoring and publishing, Helen’s eagerness to learn and tackle any challenge was inspiring. Her keen eye for detail and remarkable organizational skills kept us right on track. I’m truly grateful for Helen's guidance and the way she was able to fearlessly lead our project to success.”
Maribel Ortega
co-author of AudaciousNess
“Helen, thank you for your friendship, guidance, support and the miracle that is Bold Fish Publishing. Your willingness to do 'all the stuff' of publishing is one of the biggest reasons this book is out in the world and not languishing in my laptop! I remain ever grateful for our deep and respectful conversations and your enthusiasm, sharp editorial eye, creativity and love of books and authors.”
Julie Trager
author of The Little Book of Love
“Helen is friendly and professional and she worked with my very specific needs to make my publishing dream come true. I love her vision for Bold Fish Publishing which speaks to awakening, truth and perspectives that allow room for questioning our reality. It was exciting to work with Helen to create my masterpiece.”
“If it wasn’t for Helen this book would still be just a messy jumble of channellings. Her outstanding support in editing, proofreading and publishing made it possible for me to get my thoughts out into the world. Helen totally gets what I am trying to communicate and why, and the poem she wrote to accompany the story is beautiful! I am blessed to have had Helen guide me so skilfully through the publishing process for my first novel.”
Georgina Templar
author of One True North
“From a waffling blog of 40,000 words, Helen has helped to craft my book into a sophisticated piece of work with a clear vision and structure. The hybrid route (self-publishing with help) has been ideal for me in terms of retaining control of decision making, but with many brilliant insights from more experienced people along the way. I have so much gratitude to Helen and would recommend her to anyone.”

Book description
“In January 2021 we launched a podcast called AudaciousNess. Our aim was to showcase individuals who have set themselves bold, audacious goals and have worked to achieve them, thereby highlighting the fact that audacious people are in fact all around us. We wanted to inspire others to act with the courage to follow their own audacious paths and create a positive impact in the world.Over the next two years, we interviewed 41 people about their audacious goals. This book contains a summary of what we learned from the utterly audacious people who shared their life stories with us, as well as offering tips and advice for anyone else wishing to step up and do the audacious work the world so desperately needs right now.Some of the stories tell of personal goals, some are professional and others involve social or environmental actions. Despite the huge range of circumstances conveyed to us in these stories, one common thread runs through them all – each person experienced a very strong desire to pursue whatever they were being called to do.We are sure you will enjoy reading their inspirational stories.”
praise for audaciousness
“What a beautiful book! It speaks to the heart of what so many of us can relate to who have dared to dream and do something different with our lives, to challenge the status quo even whilst struggling with fears and vulnerability.”
—Vicky Arundel, Yoga Therapist, England“Very uplifting and inspiring, particularly all the motivational stories from amazing, strong individuals. The book is really well put together and well written. I got such a positive energy off it.”
—Anne Cholawo, Author of Island on the Edge, Scotland“Very powerful and inspirational! I love the way that you've turned the interviews into a living dialogue between all participants, people who have never met physically. I really enjoyed, and learned a lot from, the trajectories and intersections; 'love' is the big hyphen between all these nourishing worldviews and narratives. Thank you very much for this inspiring work.”
—Dr Ousmane Pame, Director of REDES Ecovillages, Senegal“The medicine box needed for our soul in the times we're living in.”
—Claire Tonna, Singer/Songwriter, Malta

“Soul Expression: The Awakening of Humanity Through Poetry is my second collection of poems.This collection sits in the genre of meditative poetry/spirituality and encouragement. It is a call-out for the need to awaken and heal humanity.My poetry beckons us to look within and to ask questions about who we are, what our soul purpose is, and how we can find clarity and truth in a world entangled with lies.In an age where truth and clarity are two key values that are sorely failing, I believe my poems speak to each and every one of us and will help me on my mission to ‘unite humanity, one poem at a time.’”
