That’s right, Becca Syme from The Better, Faster Academy will be joining to talk about our individual strengths, as measured by the Clifton Strengthsfinder Assessment. She’ll be taking a peek at each of the podcast hosts’ “top five” results, and giving us her perspective as to how our individual strengths can enhance the ministry of our podcast.

Episode 120: Writing as a business – “I wrote a business plan – now what?”

Dear Christian Indies,

I don’t know about you, but after wrapping up the business plan episodes last week, I was about ready to wrap my head in vinegar and brown paper and, “surrender, Dorothy!” I mean, seriously – the amount of content we’ve poured into you in just a couple of weeks must be kind of overwhelming; in just a few hours, we’ve managed to cover so much – why you need a business plan, what you should include, but also all the many decisions which must be made before you are able to put pen to paper.

Episode 114: T.G.I.O

Hey Christian Indies,

November is over, and that means National Novel Writing Month 2020 is officially in the books. It’s been a crazy thirty days for us on the podcast, and from what we are seeing in the chat, the same is true for all of you out there! In spite of it all, we have endured! Our word count goals? Not so much. Just kidding! We even have a couple of projected NaNo winners on the show as I compose this newsletter!
Tune in this week for our post-NaNo, 2020 report. You’ll Find out answers to questions such as:
Did Jen Finish her contemporary? 
Did Tina finish the first draft of her sequel to LOST? 
What was it like for Jen to host LIVE sprints (hint, she was able to connect us with some AWESOME new listeners)!
Did Tina survive hosting a BOOKLAUNCH during NaNoWriMo?

…and more! 

We also will be checking in with you, our awesome listeners/viewers! Whether you absolutely CRUSHED your word count goal or are just a few words ahead of where you started out on November 1st, we want to kno how National Novel Writing Month went for you! We’ve been cheering you on all month long and it will be so great to celebrate your success.

Looking forward to seeing you there,

Jamie
