Manage episode 485703753 series 3615268
Your last book launch was a disappointment. Sales are practically non-existent, and now you're staring at a blank page wondering if you should even bother writing another word.
The voice in your head whispers "Maybe I'm not cut out for this" every time you sit down to write. But what if the problem isn't you but that nobody taught you how to keep going when the results don't match the effort?
In this intensely practical episode, you'll learn 7 specific, actionable strategies that will reignite your writing motivation so that you can build a sustainable author business that honors both God and your family's financial needs. No fluff, no theory—just proven methods that work when you're ready to quit.
You'll discover:
- The Reader Magnet System that gets your books into the right hands
- How to find and work with an accountability partner who actually gets the struggle
- The Small Wins Journal that rewires your brain for progress over perfection
- Why a Strategic Creative Detox might be exactly what your creativity needs
- How to build a Beta Reader Pipeline that crushes imposter syndrome
- The Two-Project System that keeps hope alive when one book feels cursed
- The Weekly Strategy Review that turns prayer into practical business wisdom
Perfect for Christian authors who are:
- Struggling to stay motivated after disappointing book launches
- Feeling stuck between faithfulness to their calling and financial reality
- Ready for concrete steps instead of just spiritual encouragement
- Wanting to serve God while also serving their family's needs
