For you, writing is a calling and you feel compelled by God to write.
But trying to actually finish your book? That’s another story.
That’s when your inner critic shouts...
And more!

I'm Shelley Hitz, a writing mentor and self-publishing expert.
I understand the struggle of wanting to write your book while also wondering if it will be good enough.
Since 2010, my husband CJ and I have...
Together we create a powerful team to help you accomplish your goals and are often called "pastors for writers."
I’ve always loved encouraging and helping writers get their message into the world. I can't wait to celebrate your book launch!
Have you been putting off publishing your book?
No worries, today can be the day that changes!
And it doesn’t have to take years to do it.
How long is a short Kindle eBook?
We recommend starting with a book around 10,000 - 20,000 words. which is around 65 - 100 pages.
You can repurpose content you already have to make the process of writing your first draft super easy.
How much time will I need to invest?
Instead of spending years thinking about your book, in this program, you will have a published book you are proud of within 3 months.
The weekly lessons are broken down into easy-to-digest videos (typically around 15 minutes long) you can fit into your busy life.
What if I want to publish a print book?
We do recommend publishing your book in multiple formats. However, after mentoring writers for over a decade, we've noticed that sometimes trying to do everything at once can cause you to get stuck and never publish anything. Starting with a Kindle eBook is the quickest, easiest and most affordable way to get published.
If it sells well and you want to publish it as a print book later, you can. In fact, we have a training inside Christian Book Academy that can help you do just that. It's called the Kindle to Print training. :)
How is this program different from Christian Book Academy?
Christian Book Academy is our membership where you get access to all our training on writing, publishing and marketing books with hundreds of writers as members.
This program is a small group with more personalized coaching from Shelley Hitz. It has a single focus of publishing a short Kindle eBook over a 3 month period of time.
How long does this program last and when are the calls?
The program runs from September 5th through December 5th, 2024.
During the program, you will have live coaching calls with Shelley twice a month with personalized feedback and Q&A twice a month for 7 calls total.
The calls are hosted on Thursdays at 1pm eastern. Submit your questions ahead of time if you can't attend live and watch the replay.
Do I keep access to this program after it ends?
Absolutely! You'll keep ongoing access to the program. Therefore, I encourage you to use this process to publish new eBooks in the future. Most likely you have more than one book in you!
After this round is completed, you will be moved into an alumni group with the same content so you can review it any time you want to publish a new book.
Plus, you'll get bonuses added to it as we improve the program.
I’m new to writing, is this for me?
Yes, this program is for writers who want to move forward in your call to write! It includes the accountability, coaching, and motivation you need to publish your first short Kindle eBook.
I’m NOT new to writing, will this help me?
Yes! A short Kindle eBook can be a great way to build your author platform or promote your other books.
I have another question before I sign up. How can I contact you?
