✨You’re Called to Write: 7 Signs God Is Telling You to Finish That Book✨

Picture
🙏🏾 Have you ever asked: “God, do You really want me to write this book?”
You’re not alone. So many faith-based writers feel called—but stuck.
Maybe you’ve started your book and stopped...again.
Maybe you’re waiting for the perfect moment.
Or maybe you’re scared no one will read it.

​
📣 Here’s your confirmation: If God planted that story, message, or testimony in you--He expects you to finish it.


Let’s look at 7 undeniable signs that God is telling you:
“You’re called to write—don’t give up.”

✍🏾 1. The Idea Won’t Leave You Alone
Every time you pray, journal, or sit in church, the same book idea comes to mind. You dream about it. You jot it down...again. ➡️ That’s not coincidence. That’s a divine nudge.

✍🏾 2. People Keep Mentioning It
A friend says, “You should write a book!” A stranger tells you they see you speaking or teaching.

➡️ God often uses other people to confirm your calling.

​✍🏾 3. Your Testimony Could Help Others
The enemy wants you to believe your story is too messy or too small. But your breakthrough could be someone else’s lifeline.
“They overcame by the blood of the Lamb and the word of their testimony.” – Revelation 12:11


Picture


✍🏾 4. You Feel Spiritually Restless
You’ve started other projects, but nothing brings peace. You feel like you’re sitting on a gift that’s meant to be opened.➡️ That’s Holy Spirit stirring your spirit.

✍🏾 5. You’ve Started… But Quit
Maybe your book is half-finished. Maybe it’s buried in a notebook or Word doc.
➡️ If the desire is still in you, it’s because the assignment isn’t over.

✍🏾 6. You Receive Clear Vision or Title
You randomly get a book title. You hear a phrase in prayer. A full chapter flows through your pen one morning.➡️ God is the Ultimate Creator—and He speaks through creativity.

✍🏾 7. You Asked for a Sign—and This Is It
Let’s be real: You asked God to confirm it.
You said, “God, if you want me to write this book, show me something.”
➡️ This blog is your sign.

✨ You Don’t Need to Be Perfect—You Just Need to Obey
God doesn’t call the most talented. He calls the willing.
He will give you the words. He will lead you to the right editor. He will provide the audience.
You just have to say yes and start writing in faith.​

“He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion.” – Philippians 1:6
You’re not writing alone. God is writing through you.


📚How Unpublished Writers Can Find a Literary Agent (Even Without a Book Deal!)📚

Picture
So, you’ve finished your manuscript (or maybe you’re halfway there), and you’re wondering: How do I find a literary agent—especially if I’m unpublished? 🤔
​
You’re not alone. Many first-time authors believe you need to be famous, have a huge following, or know someone in the publishing world to get noticed by an agent. That’s just not true.
The truth is: literary agents are looking for fresh voices, and yes, they work with new, unpublished writers all the time. You just need the right strategy—and a bit of boldness.
Here’s how to find a literary agent, even if you’re unpublished

✅ 1. Finish and Polish Your Manuscript (Or Book Proposal)

Picture
Agents expect your manuscript (for fiction) or proposal (for nonfiction) to be as close to submission-ready as possible. This means:
  • Completed, professionally edited work (especially for novels)
  • Clear genre and word count
  • A killer first chapter and synopsis
If you’re not there yet, don’t rush. A strong manuscript gets you through the door

✉️ 2. Craft a Compelling Query Letter

Your query letter is your pitch—and it must sparkle. A great query letter includes:
  • A personalized greeting (use the agent’s name!)
  • A brief, juicy summary of your book
  • A short bio (mention if you’ve published online, blogs, contests, etc.)
  • Word count + genre + comp titles
  • A professional tone that still shows personality
➡️ Tip: Research "successful query letters" online or use Query Shark or Reedsy for real examples.
Picture

🔍 3. Research the Right Agents (Not Just the Big Names

You want agents who:
  • Represent your genre
  • Are actively seeking new writers
  • Have sold books similar to yours
Best places to find agents:
  • QueryTracker.net
  • Manuscript Wish List (MSWL)
  • Publishers Marketplace
  • Literary agency websites
  • Acknowledgments in books similar to yours
Look for agents who say things like “Open to debut voices” or “Looking for underrepresented authors.”

🧠 4. Avoid Agent Scams: Real Agents Don’t Charge Upfront Fees

Picture
A real literary agent earns a commission only if they sell your book.If they ask for a reading fee, run 🏃🏾‍♀️
Check agents’ legitimacy via:

  • Writers Beware (Science Fiction Writers of America)
  • Association of Authors' Representatives (AAR)

🌍 5. Start Small, Stay Consistent, and Don’t Take Rejection Personally

Picture
Rejection is part of the process—even bestselling authors got 20, 30, or even 100 rejections before landing a “yes.” Your job is to:
  • Send 5–10 personalized queries at a time
  • Track responses in a spreadsheet
  • Revise your letter if you’re not getting bites
  • Celebrate every request for pages—it’s progress!

✨ BONUS: Build Your Author Platform While You Wait

Picture
Even unpublished writers can start:
  • A blog or Substack (just like this one!)
  • A consistent social media presence
  • Email list for fans and future readers
  • Podcast, YouTube, or guest articles


Agents love to see writers already connecting with readers.
