Episode 134 Show Notes for Jeff Horton Interview

Have you ever wondered about changing your career…maybe writing a book or a screen play…but you were scared about leaving the secure, quote unquote – REGULAR job?

Well, today’s guest did just that. After twenty-five years in the Information Technology field, Jeff Horton decided enough was enough – and left it all behind to pursue his lifelong dream of becoming a writer. Not just any writer…but an author of several family friendly books…and TWO screen plays…he has, in all, besides the two screen plays…EIGHT published novels in several different genres – including apocalyptic fiction, science fiction, religious fantasy and some romance thrillers as well.

When Jeff is not writing his next novel, he enjoys spending time with his family, going to church and reading…so not only does he WRITE stuff for others to read – he READS what others have written also! Glory to God…

What are the names of the screen plays you have written?
Are they in any type of production, etc?

You offer a blend of Christian and Contemporary Christian writing…can explain what that means to our audience?

You have 8 novels…is that correct? Is Heaven’s Oasis your latest one?

Tell us a little bit about Heaven’s Oasis…

Now some of the reviews for Heaven’s Oasis talk about how you intertwine the romance element into the developing plot. Some say that it sounds like some aspects of it may be based upon your own life…is that true?

I guess what we want to know is – what sets your novels apart from the rest of the field?

What is the main topic of interest that you like to write about? Why is that?

As far as advice for up and coming authors…How do you promote your works? It can’t be just through Amazon…there has to be other other avenues of up and coming authors to gain access to…can you give any information on that?

Folks…I don’t know about you…but I have been blessed by what Jeff has been sharing with us today…I want to encourage you to go to his website…www.hortonlibrary.com – and just look around…read some the clips he has there…read some of the reviews…and – most of all – purchase a book! Glory to God!

About your host

Profile picture for Robert Thibodeau

Robert Thibodeau

I am a 12 year Army veteran as both enlisted and as a commissioned Cavalry Officer.
I am now a retired law enforcement supervisor...

I had my own business for seven years before I entered law enforcement.

As a cop, I was injured on the job on May 12, 2007 and after several surgeries over a couple of years, forced to retire in 2011.

As I was looking down the road to “what am I going to do next?” I started what is now known as a podcast (I had no clue at the time).

Within six months of starting (what I called) “My online radio program” I was offered an opportunity to be on nationwide AM radio. I learned A LOT in one year of doing that!

I then started the online Christian radio platform "Evangelism Radio" in the fall of 2010. It has had listeners in 160+ nations and all 50 states. We host 50+ Christian broadcasters on a weekly basis. We have been operating 24/7 for almost 14 years now. We have been rated #1 in the world by Shoutcast. com on several occasions in our genre. We recently transferred ownership of Evangelism Radio to another ministry so I could concentrate full time on podcasting, preaching and writing.

In 2018, I started the Kingdom Cross Roads Podcast to conduct interviews with Christian influencers from all walks of life and to play their interviews on the radio station. (The KCR Podcast has its own time slot on Evangelism Radio)!
We now have over 1600 episodes and almost 1100 interviews (in just over 6 years).

Looking out at the future of online Christian media, I noticed there was no viable platforms that catered only to the Christian podcast market.

In 2023, we launched a networking platform called, "FaithCasters" which connects "Great Christian podcasters with Great Christian Guests!" This helps to promote the work you do through podcast interviews! Check it out at https://FaithCaster.org

We recently launched "FaithCaster Academy" which serves as a training hub for ALL of our trainings (podcast training / speaker training / interview training, etc.). Members receive access to ALL of our training programs for one low, monthly membership fee. Members also receive FREE access to ALL of the LIVE trainings I conduct (1 or 2 per month) - while non-members have to pay to access the live trainings.

Between my podcast training program, conducting podcast interviews, appearing on other podcasts as guests, speaking at conferences (in person and virtually) and the podcast networking platform, I guess you could say “I’m all in” when it comes to podcasting and online media!

My total focus is to do all we can to assist you to “Get The Word Out” about your mission, services, products, ministry, books, business, etc.
