How to Write Your Life Story in 4 Steps (Ep.79)

<ul><li>Confused about how to write a book?</li><li>Struggling to find time to write?</li><li>Ready to learn a step-by-step process to self-publish like a pro?</li></ul> Welcome to Ink and Impact, the podcast for Christian writers who want to self-publish their first nonfiction book. I’m your host, Dalene Bickel – a Jesus-loving book coach and founder of Lasting Legacies Publishing.&nbsp; I’ve worked in the self-publishing industry for 29 years and I’ve written and published more than a dozen nonfiction books for clients (and myself). What started out as a way to help retirees privately publish their life stories expanded in 2021 when the Lord called me to serve Christian writers.&nbsp; I believe the Lord is calling Christian writers just like you – writers of all ages, races, and nationalities. Writers who are willing to create quality nonfiction books that offer the light, hope, and truth of Christ to a weary and waiting world.&nbsp; Books that make a true impact on the world and leave a lasting legacy. Maybe that resonates with you. Maybe you feel led to write a faith-based business or how-to book, memoir, devotional, or Bible study.&nbsp; But as a busy business owner, parent of littles, family caregiver (or a combo of all three), your dream of becoming an author might seem out of reach right now. The reality is that God has given you a message to share right now for a reason. Here on the podcast, I’ll help you develop a publishing plan, write your manuscript, self-publish your book, and sell more copies no matter how much - or little- time you have. Join me here each week as I bring you rotating content full of practical information and tangible tips as well as occasional interviews and industry insights, all from a Biblical perspective.&nbsp; Get&nbsp; ready to:&nbsp;<ul><li>Replace distraction with productive action,</li><li>Learn a clear step-by-step process, and</li><li>Communicate your message in a way that attracts readers.</li></ul> Fire up your computer and brew an extra pot of coffee, friend.
