Ink and Impact for Christian Writers | How to Write a Book, Self-Publish, Christian Book, Book Marketing, Nonfiction Book
- Confused about how to write a book?
- Struggling to find time to write?
- Ready to learn a step-by-step process to self-publish like a pro?
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Get ready to:
- Replace distraction with productive action,
- Learn a clear step-by-step process, and
- Communicate your message in a way that attracts readers.
Fire up your computer and brew an extra pot of coffee, friend. It’s time to write your book and make an impact!

What is a CTA ? (And how writers should use it) - Ep.92
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.

Do you wish you got more engagement on your blog posts, social posts, and newsletters? Have you ever wondered how some authors manage to sell more books, receive more book reviews, and get more people to recommend their books than others?
There are many reasons, and many solutions. But one of the best ways to drive more engagement and book sales, I think, is to prompt followers and readers to take one specific action, also known in the marketing world as a call to action or CTA.
On today's episode, I'm going to explain the what, when, and how of CTAs for authors, but before I do, I want to announce a new, limited-time offer just for you, my valued podcast listener.
When you book a 50-minute coaching session with me during the month of November 2024, you'll not only gain clarity and solutions to your most pressing writing or self-publishing challenge, but you'll also receive a bonus CTA audit of both your newsletter and a recent social media post.
Book your spot now before they're gone!
