This is the podcast for authors to tell their tales.  We don't just talk about our books, our work, our craft... We also talk about our journey, our mission and our stories.  This is for the authors who understand that Chat GPT doesn't have a heart, or a soul.  This is for the authors that believe YOUR story matters, the one you've lived, and the one you've told. Here, we all know that each page is a step forward.  Welcome.  This is the way...

    The Write Path #83 - “Purpose in the Pain,” with Author Kate Massey

    Kate Massey is a writer, counselor, and storyteller who believes that healing begins when we dare to tell the truth about our pain—and invite God into it. Through her work, she weaves together her clinical background and deep Christian faith to help others find meaning, hope, and redemption in their stories. For Kate, writing isn’t just about words—it’s about connection. Her debut book, Purpose in the Pain, was born out of her own journey of navigating loss, trauma, and faith. What began as personal reflection has become a message of restoration for others: that God can meet us in the most broken places and bring beauty from ashes. With a voice that is both tender and grounded, Kate writes to those who feel unseen, misunderstood, or weary from the weight of their circumstances. Her approach combines the insight of a counselor with the empathy of someone who’s been there herself. She believes that faith and psychology don’t stand in opposition, but together create a powerful path toward healing and wholeness. https://www.katemassey.org/ Welcome to the Write Path Podcast, where being an author, an actual author, still matters.

    The Write Path #85 - Founder of StarScript, Zach James!!!

    Zack James is the founder, CEO, and lead developer of StarScript, a Los Angeles-based self-publishing platform and creation network for independent creators. StarScript combines technology from Netflix-style streaming, LinkedIn-style professional and fan networking, social media, and IMDB-style ratings into a single ecosystem where creators collaborate with teams, publish their work, market to their audience, and engage with fans — all from one profile, while keeping 95% of every membership. The platform launched in Spring 2023. Its core Productions feature, released in Spring 2026, allows creators to self-publish across seven formats: books, comics, music, podcasts, film, television, and art — without going through a traditional publisher, label, or studio. Zack co-founded StarScript with his brother Matthew, the company's Creative Director, drawing on a lifelong shared passion for language, imagination, and worldbuilding. They built the platform to address what they saw as the central economic challenge of the entertainment industry: that the people creating the work bear most of the risk while capturing the smallest share of the value. The platform has grown to 2,800+ creators with roughly 125 new creators joining each month. https://starscript.com/ Welcome to the Write Path Podcast, where being an author, an actual author, still matters.
