Free Live Call  ·  First Wednesday of the Month  ·  11:00 AM Eastern

The book God placed on your heart is still waiting. Here’s how to come back.

A free 60-minute live call for Kingdom Writers who’ve stalled, walked away, or never started and are ready to write again without rereading the whole manuscript, redoing the outline, or starting over from scratch.

“I actually got started (writing my book). I have been putting it off for almost a year.” – Melissa

Hosted by Shelley Hitz  ·  1,000+ Kingdom Writers walked from stalled to published

1,000+Kingdom Writers published
70+books by CJ and Shelley Hitz

If you’ve told yourself “this is the year” to finish your book

This call was made for you.

Maybe the document has been sitting in a folder for a year. Or three. Or seven.

Maybe you’ve told people about this book so many times you’ve stopped bringing it up, because it feels like a lie now. You’ve bought courses you didn’t finish. Sat in writing conferences and come home heavier than when you went. Wondered, quietly, if you misheard God when He gave you this message in the first place.

You didn’t mishear Him. You’re not disqualified. The calling is still on you, and the fact that you’re reading this is evidence the nudge hasn’t gone away.

You just haven’t been taught how to come back to your writing after life interrupts. That’s what we’re doing together on this call.


Come if any of this is you

You don’t have to have it all figured out.

No matter where you are in the writing process, you’re welcome here. Just show up willing to write 15 minutes with us.

You’re in a caregiving season and writing keeps falling to the bottom of the list.

You retired thinking you’d finally write the book and somehow you’re busier than ever.

You started years ago. The document is still there. You can’t bring yourself to open it.

You haven’t started at all but the calling won’t leave you alone.

“The biggest thing I heard today was overwhelming peace that I haven’t felt in a long time. God said that He misses our creative time together.”

– Angie

Simple. Free. No prep needed.

Three simple steps.

3

Write your next 15 minutes

We do the restart practice together, live. You’ll leave with real words written and a way back any time life interrupts again.


Oh, and there’s one more thing.

Free Bonus: Yours the Moment You Register

The Writing Restart Toolkit

Four practical tools for the Kingdom Writer who keeps getting interrupted. They work before the call, during the call, and on every hard writing day after.

Tool 01

The No Catch-Up Rule

The exact 15-minute restart practice we’ll walk through together on the call, plus three small steps for the days when even opening the document feels impossible.

Tool 02

The Writing Anchor

The 15 minutes you’ve been looking for aren’t new time on your calendar. They’re already in your day. This tool shows you exactly where they’re hiding.

Tool 03

The Worst Day Writing Plan

A short plan you fill out before life gets loud. So when the next hard week hits, you already know what to do, and your book survives it.

Tool 04

The First 15 Morning Rhythm Guide

Five small choices you make tonight so tomorrow morning, zero decisions stand between you and the page. Simple, practical, and repeatable every day.

All four tools are yours the moment you register. No waiting, no extra steps.

“This was so helpful! I needed this reset more than I knew. I started writing a children’s book today and the ideas are flowing with over 200 words. I can’t wait to get back into it to finish!”

– Tammy

510 words writtenon one live call
“

I was nervous. I actually was feeling hesitant to write when I came across your email to join. I hopped in and it was absolutely divine intervention.

– Vanessa

That’s what this call is for. Not a lecture about writing. Not a list of tips you’ll forget by Friday. Just you, God, and the next sentence – with people praying you through it.


Replay included

Can’t join live? You still get everything.

If 11 AM Eastern doesn’t work, register anyway. The replay will come straight to your inbox, along with the Writing Restart Toolkit, so you have everything you need whether you watch live or later.

Registration is how we get you the replay. That’s the only reason we ask.


About Shelley & CJ

Why this call exists

CJ and Shelley Hitz, founders of Christian Book Academy

CJ & Shelley Hitz
Founders, Christian Book Academy

People call us pastors for writers. That’s what I want to be for you on this call.

My husband CJ and I founded Christian Book Academy in 2015. Since then, we’ve walked with more than a thousand Kingdom Writers as they overcame self-doubt and became published authors. We’ve published 70+ books of our own and reached nearly a million readers.

Every Kingdom Writer I know has stalled at some point. Caregiving. Health. A move. A loss. A stretch where the words just stopped. None of that is a sign you’re not called. It’s a sign you’re human, and that you’ve been trying to do this alone.

You don’t need more discipline. You don’t need a five-year plan. You don’t need to figure out where you went wrong before you can move forward. You need a way back to your manuscript. We’ll work on that together on this call.

If you’ve felt the nudge to come back to your writing recently, that nudge isn’t random. Come show up to it.


From the Writing Restart community

What Kingdom Writers wrote in 15 minutes.

“3 pages completed. It felt amazing to give it to God and not have to figure it out all by myself. I felt much more confident about what to spend the time on.”

– Sherri

“I wrote a page and a half in one of my chapters. It felt very good. This is a mini breakthrough.”

– Thomas Harang

“2 pages completed with more ideas given in the prayer session!”

– D Capps

“In 15 mins I wrote 379 words. The prayer beforehand was so helpful, because I had my own agenda, and the Lord gave me something else to write.”

– Estella

Just you, God, and the next sentence.

I’ll see you on the call.
