Ink and Impact for Christian Writers - How to successfully write, self-publish, and market your book as an indie authorAuthor: Dalene Bickel - Book Publisher, Ghostwriter, Speaker
Hey there! Im Dalene - a Jesus-loving author and founder of Lasting Legacies Publishing. Twenty years ago, I accepted my first ghostwriting project. Even though I had been a manuscript editor for almost a decade by that point, I had never actually written a book before. Faced with that first book project, I was both excited and terrified.I knew how to write a book in theory, but I had no clue how to do it in practice. So I turned to the Internet. I listened to bits and pieces of advice from numerous experts, which caused confusion and overwhelm rather than producing a clear plan of action. Worse yet, I put God in the back seat. With each subsequent book I wrote, I improved my writing process. I kept a pulse on the latest technology and industry changes. And in 2021, shortly after I put God back in His rightful place in the front seat, God told me to call His writers. Since then, Ive pulled my insights and process together into a step-by-step system, which Im eager to share with you!
