| 6/17/26 | ![]() How A Veteran CNN Editor Built A Writing Career | In this episode, I sat down with John DeDakis, a journalist with 45 years in the newsroom and 25 years at CNN, to get honest about the upsides and downsides of artificial intelligence in writing, publishing, and education, and where he draws the line. John walked me through his pivot from journalism to mystery and suspense fiction, including what reporters have to unlearn when they move from “just the facts” to character emotion, interiority, and voice.

Bill walks through why he organizes nearly 200 en... | 30m 51s | ||||||
| 1/16/26 | ![]() Inside Christian Fiction’s Rise And Reach With David Gregory | A skeptic sits down to dinner with Jesus at a quiet Italian restaurant, and a half-million readers later, David Gregory finds himself at the center of Christian fiction’s unlikely boom. I invited David to unpack how a self-published novella became a national bestseller, why some faith-forward stories cross into the mainstream, and what it really takes to write novels that don’t preach yet still carry a clear message. We get practical fast: what qualifies a book as Christian fiction, ho... | 38m 08s | ||||||

Oliver, award-winning author and former industry insider, to explore how she turned that “no” into twelve page-turning novels, a loyal readership, and growing momentum toward the screen. Kay shares a writing process built for consistency and flow: visualizing the opening and ending, stopping mid-scene to avoid writer’s block, and using novellas to test ideas, master KDP formatting, and later ex... | 44m 50s | ||||||

We dig into how a genre once brushed off as “women’s fiction” built one of publishing’s most loyal and profitable audiences.
