There’s a book inside you. A message that won’t leave you alone.
But between fear, responsibility, doubt — and now the rise of AI — you keep starting… and stopping.
Welcome to The Adventurous Author Podcast.
I’m Bonnie Jean Schaefer — fantasy author D.K. Drake — and I’ve published four novels while working a full-time job. I didn’t quit my life to write. I built systems that made finishing possible inside it.
Now I help stuck Christian writers do the same.
This podcast is discipleship through storytelling.
We follow a simple framework:
Start with WHO.
Anchor your identity in Christ so fear loses leverage — especially in an AI age where identity matters more than ever.
Live Your Story.
Build sustainable 15-minute systems that fit your real life.
Win Your Race.
Finish what God called you to start — and become the kind of person who keeps finishing.
Every season rotates through identity, systems, and storytelling mastery in a structured spiral of growth.
If you’ve been hiding, doubting, or wondering where you fit in this new creative world — you’re not alone.
Let’s adventurize your life and rise from stuck...together.

Ever feel drained before you even start writing? It’s not a lack of motivation—it’s decision fatigue.
Every time you ask yourself, "Should I write today?", you’re burning mental energy that could have been used for actual writing. The highest-performing writers don’t decide to write—they remove the decision altogether.
In this episode, we break down:
✔️ Why decision fatigue is stealing your creative energy
✔️ How to make writing automatic (without relying on willpower)
✔️ A challenge to lock in your daily writing habit—no debate, no excuses
🚀 Want to stop overthinking and start creating? Hit play now.
Keep the words rolling and the adventure unfolding,
Bonnie Jean
