Have you ever held a belief about your author life that felt completely spiritual… but quietly kept you from moving forward?

In today's episode, I unpack three beliefs I've seen quietly circulating among Kingdom writers — beliefs that come from sincere, God-honouring hearts, but that might be getting in the way of the author life God actually intended for you.

Drawing from personal experience and scripture, this episode explores the difference between passive waiting and active trust, why the craft treadmill isn't always the answer, and why the most visible writers in your space probably have far less figured out than you think.

No judgment here. Just one author friend sitting across the table from another — with honesty and compassion, saying — hey, I recognize that. I lived there. And here's what I learned on the other side.

And if you're ready to change up your author life, check out the Revive to Thrive Way™ here.

📌 Don't miss next week's episode — something significant is coming for Kingdom writers who are ready for a shift.

What if the word “self-publish” has been quietly working against you as a Christian author this whole time?

In this episode of The Anointed Scribe, Urcelia unpacks the hidden problem with the word “self” in self-publishing — and why Christian authors were never called to write, publish, or build their author business alone. If you’ve been feeling exhausted, isolated, or stuck in your indie author journey, this one’s for you.

Through a powerful passage in Exodus 35–36 — where God commissions ordinary people to build the tabernacle and supernaturally equips them with skill, intelligence, and creativity they didn’t have before — Urcelia reveals the pattern God still uses with Christian writers and authors today: He stirs the heart, He fills with His Spirit, and He over-provides for the work.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

• Why the word “self-publish” contradicts everything the Bible teaches Christian authors about identity, calling, and dependence on God

• The surprising connection between self-ish, self-centred, self-confidence, self-care — and the way we approach self-publishing

• How God equipped Bezalel and Oholiab with supernatural skill to do work they were never trained for — and what that means for your writing

• The heart condition that blocks God’s provision in your author business

• How to shift from striving as a self-published author to thriving as a God-commissioned, Spirit-equipped, Kingdom-building author

Whether you’re a Christian fiction author, nonfiction writer, or just starting your indie publishing journey, this episode will remind you that the God who called you to write will equip you and provide everything you need to carry out that good work.

Scriptures referenced: Galatians 2:20, John 15:4, Philippians 1:6, 1 Timothy 6:18, Exodus 35:25–36:7, Ephesians 2:10, Matthew 6:33, 2 Corinthians 9:8

Ever tried a marketing strategy because it was working for someone else… only to feel drained, behind, and totally out of your depth a few weeks later?

Yep. Been there.

In today’s episode, I’m sharing 5 clear signs a marketing strategy might not be right for you — even if it’s producing results for another Christian writer. Because the online author world is loud, and it’s so easy to start chasing what’s “working”… instead of discerning what’s actually yours in this season.

We’ll talk about anxiety, comparison, dread, feeling inauthentic, and the BIG one: when marketing starts pulling you away from writing.

I’ll also share a simple filter I call The Peace Test so you can stop second-guessing every decision and start moving forward with clarity (and peace).

If you’re a Christian writer trying to grow your author platform, market your books, build your email list, and do it in a way that doesn’t steal your peace — you’re in the right place.

You've heard it a thousand times: "Know your numbers." But what happens when looking at your KDP dashboard makes your stomach drop?

Your book sales were great during the holidays—and then January hit and everything stopped. Now you're panicking, wondering if you did something wrong or if this is a sign you should quit.

Take a breath. This post-holiday sales slump happens to almost every author, and once you understand why, you can stop spiraling and start planning strategically.

In this episode, I'm breaking down:

• The four real reasons your book sales tank after the holidays (hint: it's not you)
• What January sales do NOT mean about your books, your business, or your calling
• The biggest mistakes Christian authors make during sales slumps—and how to avoid them
• Six practical strategies to use this season wisely instead of just surviving it
• How to tell the difference between a seasonal dip and a real problem that needs addressing
• The faith perspective that will help you stop white-knuckling results and start trusting the process

If you're staring at your dashboard right now feeling discouraged, this episode will help you understand what's actually happening, protect your peace, and make wise decisions that won't hurt your business in February.

This episode is for you if:

• Your holiday sales were strong but January tanked
• You're tempted to slash prices or make desperate decisions
• You're wondering if God is closing doors through your sales numbers
• You need practical wisdom (not just "pray harder") for navigating slow seasons

The harvest isn't measured in a single month. Let's talk about how to stay steady, stay faithful, and actually use this season to your advantage.

You’ve prayed. You’ve believed. You’ve stayed faithful. And yet… nothing seems to be shifting.

If your calling feels heavier than it should —

If your growth feels slower than it makes sense —

If you’ve been quietly wondering why your prayers haven’t changed your circumstances…

This episode may finally put language to what your spirit has been sensing.

This is not a productivity talk.

It’s not a “try harder” message.

And it’s not another motivation push.

This is a gentle, Spirit-led interruption for Christian authors.

Inside this episode, we explore:

• How God often answers prayers without us knowing it

• What the quiet waiting season is actually preparing you for

• The hidden work God may be doing beneath your prayers

• And how to begin partnering intentionally with what He’s building in you now

🎧 Press play if:

• You’ve prayed for breakthrough but still feel stalled

• You’re tired of circling the same place year after year

• You sense God may be preparing you for something — but you don’t know what

• You’re ready to stop waiting passively and start partnering intentionally

It’s the start of a brand-new year.

New goals. New planners. New promises we’re making to ourselves — again.

“This year will be different.”

“I’ll be more disciplined.”

“I’ll finally stay consistent.”

And yet, if we’re honest, many Christian authors have said these same things before… only to find themselves back in the same place by March.

In this episode of Anointed Scribe, we talk about why good intentions rarely lead to lasting change — especially in your author business.

Because the issue is rarely effort, discipline, or motivation.

It’s often the foundation you’re building on.

In this conversation, we explore:

• Why January doesn’t automatically reset exhaustion or burnout
• How repeated patterns form — even when you pray and plan sincerely
• The difference between movement and obedience
• Why pressure-driven goals always lead back to fatigue
• Why prayer alone doesn’t always break cycles without awareness
• And why real transformation starts with clarity, not another plan

If your writing, marketing, or growth feels heavier than it should — even though you’ve done the work and stayed faithful — this episode will help you understand why.

✨ Need clarity before setting another goal?

If your author business isn’t working the way it should — despite your effort and faithfulness — I created a short clarity quiz to help you discern what’s actually creating friction right now.

This isn’t about fixing you or trying harder.

It’s about understanding whether the issue is strategy — or order.

👉 Take the clarity quiz here:

Later this month, I’ll be opening a space for Christian authors who sense a deeper shift is needed — not another reset, but a rebuilding from the inside out.

I’ll share more when the time is right.

For now, start with clarity.
