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!

Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Are you in a writing slump?
If your writing has been pushed aside for the past three months simply because you've been wanting to enjoy all that summer offers, there's no shame in that.
But now it's time to return to what God has called you to do and pick up that pen again. There's kingdom work to be done!
To help you, I've put together 3 tips to get you out of your writing slump and back into a productive writing routine. That's what I'm going to share with you on today's episode of the Ink & Impact podcast.
And, of course, you can also hop on a coaching call with me to receive a custom action plan with the exact next steps you need to take in your author journey.
The writing, self-publishing, and marketing information I share here on the podcast is useful for every nonfiction writer, but exactly how it should be applied is nuanced and different for each person.
- If you feel as though you've been following every step correctly but still aren't seeing the results you want, or
- if you're confused and struggling to understand a concept, or
- if you simply don't know WHAT you should be doing right now,
be sure to book a 1-hour, 1:1 coaching call with me.
Get the clarity and action plan you need to become the writer God's called you to be.
