Author Interview 


 

What was your process to align your book with your target audience? I'm a Doctor of Physical Therapy, and I specialize in women's health, pelvic floor rehab, osteoporosis, oncology rehab, and orthopedics. Over the years, many patients suggested I put my knowledge into book form. I decided to focus on sharing topics most suited towards middle age and up. 

 

What was the most challenging part of writing your book?The most challenging part of writing my book was finding the time to write it! I wanted to make sure each topic was easy to understand for the average person and not filled with confusing medical terms and jargon. I wrote several other books while working on this one, but I finally buckled down and found the time to finish it. 

 

What was the most enjoyable part of writing your book?The most enjoyable part of writing my book was knowing that the information could help people with a wide range of problems as well as those who wish to remain healthy as they get older. Some of the topics included in the book include urinary incontinence/overactive bladder, constipation, osteoporosis, muscle flexibility, and joint pain. Other areas that are covered include how to keep your youthful appearance, understanding your immune system, embracing spiritual wellness, and learning strategies to improve balance and prevent fallsI loved being able to share the things I have learned over the years and truly hope they aid people. 

 

Was your writing process spontaneous as it came to you or very planned and organized? My writing process for this book was quite planned out and organized. I made a list of topics I wanted to make sure to cover, decided on the order in which I wanted to discuss them, and then wrote a first draft. I researched each area with the goal of adding evidence-based research for appropriate topics. 

 

How many books do you personally own? I own hundreds of books on a large variety of topics. Some are non-fiction, dealing with physical therapy and  health-related topics as well as books about emergency medical services (I have been a volunteer emergency medical technician for over 35 years and have written five books about my inspirational experiences). Other books are Christian-oriented covering topics such as miracles, angels, and the like. I also love reading romances. I pass along many of them after I read them, but I keep my favorites. I also have many of the old classics, like Pride and PrejudiceTo Kill a Mockingbird, and Tom Sawyer

More from Andrea Jo

Aging can be defined as the process of growing old. The key to graceful aging is to stay in good health as the years slip by. One of the best ways to do this is to be proactive. What you do today can help ensure better health tomorrow.

People often start to think about aging when something goes amiss. Perhaps they develop an ache or pain that lingers: a stiff neck, an achy back, or painful hips and knees. They may receive a diagnosis that forces them to confront their health head-on, such as hypertension (high blood pressure), high cholesterol, obesity, or perhaps even cancer.

I’ve worked as a clinical Doctor of Physical Therapy in both the hospital and outpatient setting for thirty years. During this time, I’ve helped people with wellness initiatives as well as various health problems. I’m CAPP-certified in pelvic health by the American Physical Therapy Association, a nationally certified lymphedema therapist, a PORi-certified oncology rehabilitation therapist, and a certified low pressure fitness instructor. During my 38 years as a volunteer emergency medical technician (EMT) with my local rescue squad, I’ve assisted countless people in times of medical crisis. The goal of this book is to share pearls of wisdom that I’ve learned from my experiences as a physical therapist and EMT.

Some may be reading this book to stay healthy as you get older. Others may be looking for ideas to improve your current condition. Perhaps you are looking to build muscle and bone strength, improve flexibility, or choose a healthier lifestyle with respect to diet and exercise. Or maybe you wish to stop leaking urine or say goodbye to constipation and countless hours in the bathroom.

Do you think wellness simply means freedom from disease? Well, it includes much more than that. Wellness can be defined as the state of being in good health, especially as an actively pursued goal. Wellness serves as a cornerstone towards the vision of healthy aging. Wellness constitutes a dynamic process of change and growth in which individuals actively become aware of healthy choices and consciously make a decision to choose them. It’s a balanced lifestyle which encourages physical and mental health and well-being. Wellness emphasizes the mind, body, and spirit. Wellness means being proactive about staying healthy as you get older. It involves using available knowledge and tools to achieve optimal health. Many of the chapters in this book focus on different areas of wellness as a means to strive towards healthy aging. My goal is that each of you stay active, embark on a journey of wellness, and enjoy your middle age and golden years in good mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual health.

Mara, In The Face Of Battle by Blossom Turner

 

 


About the Book

 


Book: Mara, In The Face of Battle (The Victory Series Book Two)

Author: Blossom Turner

Genre: Christian Suspense/Spiritual Warfare

Release date: April 22, 2025

She escaped the darkness once… but will she survive its clutches yet again?

Despite scars both seen and unseen from her unimaginable past, Mara returns to the home that once imprisoned her in secrets, lies, and abuse. This time, she’s no longer a victim—she’s a young woman transformed by faith and driven by love. Mara is determined to share with her siblings the hope she’s found in a God who saved her life and filled it with purpose.

Reminded of her past with every look in the mirror, Mara’s heart finds a home in Lucas, a man who loves her beyond appearances. With him, she steps into a new life of joy, ministry, and the promise of forever.

But an unseen battle rages. Mara discovers the enemy who comes to steal, kill, and destroy is closer—and far more dangerous—than she imagined. Armed with prayer and the Holy Spirit, Mara must confront the forces that seek to crush everything she holds dear. When an unimaginable failure shakes the foundation of her faith, Mara faces her greatest test yet.

Can she trust God is good when life is not? Or will the shadows of her past pull her under once more?

A gripping story of faith, love, and resilience. Turner takes us on a journey that will inspire and challenge readers to find hope in their own darkest moments.

Author Interview


● What was the most enjoyable part of writing your book?

I love writing the first copy the best…where creativity flows and the book takes me in surprising directions. So much fun!


● How do you weave Biblical truths into your writing? 
The Victory Series is a three-book series based on Ephesians 6, and Spiritual Warfare. It brings alive the truth that we have an enemy, and we are in a battle. Weaving this Bible truth into the story is done by a peek into the other realm where guardian angels and Satan’s minions are at work and at war. Through giving both the guardian angels and the demons a POV and a character with goals and a story arc, these scenes come alive and are impactful. Because so often we think that we are alone, when we are not. We have a big God. We have a real enemy. And we have a guardian angel.

 


● Why did you pick this genre for your book? 
The Victory SerriesMara, The Unseen Battle… found me. My genre is historical romance. I was building a following, won awards on almost every book I wrote, and loved what I was doing. But as I finished up my last series the Holy Spirit spoke so clearly that Mara The Unseen Battle, a Christian Suspense, would be my next series. I was to write from that deep place of my own experiences of childhood abuse and reveal the unseen spirit world that preys on the unsuspecting and vulnerable. It is my hope and prayer that the reader is entertained, but even more importantly inspired to realize how powerful prayer is, and how when faith is tested, we have an amazing God and guardian angels at the ready. We are not alone but dearly loved.

 

● How many books do you personally own? 

 

Too many to count

 

● What is your next big goal as an author? 

To write and do my Utmost for his Highest. I seem to go where God leads.

 


About the Author



Blossom Turner is an award-winning novelist who loves to jump out of planes, garden, and sing… all for fun. She is published in a variety of anthologies, a former newspaper columnist on health and fitness, and a personal trainer. With a passion for words this gifted author brings to life this new series on spiritual warfare with thought-provoking plots and twists that will keep you guessing. Love and deep relationships sprinkled with hope permeate her novels. Check out the award-winning Shenandoah Bride Series about five sisters and their love stories. She and her husband, David, have two grown children and live in beautiful British Columbia, Canada, with their Shepherd/Bernese dog named Lacey.

 

More from Blossom

Have you ever felt like something, or someone is watching you? Have you ever experienced darkness in a fully lit room? Or wondered if a malevolent force was working against you?

We all love stories on angels and God’s love and protection, but we also have an enemy…a living, breathing adversary. Ephesians 6:12 says…For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. (NKJV)

This story, Mara, In The Face of Battle… is the second in the Victory Series. The series found me. My genre is historical romance. I was building a following, won some awards, and loved what I was doing. But as I finished up my last series the Holy Spirit made it very clear that Mara would be my next project. From my own personal experience of spiritual warfare where Satan has come to steal, kill, and destroy, (as Jesus warned in John 10:10), I was to write a series on a character named Mara from birth to death. I think this approach is unique in and of itself. But then to weave in the unseen, how angels fight to protect, and the darkness seeks to destroy, adds a whole new and deep dimension.

If you would enjoy a read that is a cross between Frank Peretti books, and Francine Rivers’ character Angel, in Redeeming Love, then you’ll love Mara, In The Face of Battle. In this powerful trilogy, discover a world where spiritual warfare is brought to life, prayer is a weapon, and faith is tested. Expect to be impacted in a way that will change your life story.

You will be entertained, (nothing wrong with that) but you will also come away with a greater appreciation for prayer, for Christ, and His work on the cross. You may even view the trials of your life in a new encouraging way. The battle is real but the One by our side is victorious.

I’d like to end by enclosing an endorsement from bestselling suspense author, Creston Mapes…

“I’ve been watching and waiting for a powerful new voice in Christian fiction, and I’ve finally found it in Blossom Turner and her new thriller, Mara – The Unseen Battle. With spiritual warfare comparable to Frank Peretti, this book was powerfully spiritual and chillingly realistic. It had everything I love in a good novel — tension throughout, great pacing, unexpected twists and turns . . . I can’t wait to read the second book in the series.” — Bestselling Author Creston Mapes

I received a complimentary copy of this book and all opinions given are my own and not an endorsement of all author’s opinions.


Author Interview 


1. What was the most challenging part of writing your book?

Since I focus on biblical truth, strengthening character, and growing in faith, the most difficult part for me is ensuring that I am biblically correct, sharing accurate and truthful insights, and aligned with the calling God has for me. There is a lot of pressure in ensuring I hold to these core values. 

 

Writing a book that addresses spiritual matters, particularly in a way that challenges men to grow in faith, requires a level of accountability that I don't take lightly. I want my words to encourage and empower, but I also need to make sure they are firmly grounded in God's Word and reflect His heart. That responsibility weighs heavily on me, and it requires a lot of prayer, reflection, and careful study to ensure I get it right.

 

2. Was your writing process spontaneous as it came to you or very planned and organized?

My writing process is extremely organized, with many hours spent on research and prayer for each topic I address in the book. Before I begin writing, I develop a structured outline that ensures a clear flow of ideas and biblical truths. I spend a significant amount of time studying scripture, historical context, and relevant theological insights to ensure accuracy and depth.

 

Prayer is a critical part of my process. I seek God’s guidance before, during, and after writing each chapter to ensure that the message aligns with His truth and speaks directly to the hearts of those who will read it. While inspiration sometimes strikes in unexpected moments, the foundation of my writing is built on intentional planning, deep study, and a commitment to delivering biblically sound and impactful content.

 

3. How many books do you personally own?

I own hundreds, if not thousands, of books. Over the years, my collection has grown significantly, though I’ve slowed down on purchasing as many printed copies in favor of digital ones. That said, there are still certain books I prefer to own in print—I love the feel of a physical book in hand, and some are worth having on the shelf to easily reference again. In fact, there have been times when I’ve read a book digitally and then gone back to purchase a physical copy because it resonated with me so deeply.

 

4. What is your next big goal as an author

My goal as an author is the same as when I step on a stage to speak, and it hasn’t changed over the years. My prayer is that God uses me to reach at least one person through my writing. I’m not focused on numbers, accolades, or recognition. What matters most is that even one person is drawn into a deeper relationship with Jesus or takes their faith to the next level because of something I’ve written. If my work helps even one person grow closer to Christ, then I’ve done what I was called to do, and that is the only success I need.

 

 

 



About the Author



Todd Woodfill is a modern-day Renaissance man whose life could be inspirational if it didn’t so closely resemble a comedy sketch. Married to his absolutely amazing, beautiful, intelligent, and talented wife Holly for a whirlwind 30 years so far, he couldn’t imagine doing life without her support.  With four incredible children and one extraordinary grandchild, who refer to Todd as Dad, Papa, dork, old timer, and weirdo, Todd has been blessed far more than he deserves.

Passionate about mental health and suicide prevention, men’s ministries, Legos, boxing, and pursuing God, Todd is a man of many talents and clearly a master of none.  But who else can seamlessly switch from being a Jordan sneaker connoisseur to a boxing enthusiast, all while building men’s ministries and helping those with mental health challenges.  Heck, this guy can be found passionately discussing the virtues of mental wellness, only to break into a joyful song from a Disney classic, spreading cheer like a modern-day Mary Poppins with a passion for Christ. His life is a whirlwind of laughter, love, and an unshakable faith, making him the ultimate blend of humor and heart in a world that often takes itself too seriously.

More from Todd

Men, it’s time to step into the ring! Todd Woodfill’s new book, It’s Fight Night: Lessons For Men On Samson’s Fight, is officially here-and it’s not just a book; it’s a challenge to reclaim your strength, confront your weaknesses, and discover the warrior God created you to be.

Using the story of Samson as a backdrop, this study invites you to explore themes of strength, weakness, purpose, and redemption. Whether you’re diving in solo or in a small group with you brothers in Christ, this book is designed to help you reflect deeply on your journey as a man of faith. You’ll be encouraged to embrace your God-given potential, find hope in the face of failure, and live boldly for Christ.

What to Expect:

  • Discover the divine purpose in your strengths AND your struggles.
  • Learn how to fight like Samson-but live with the grace of Christ.
  • Build up your faith and deepen your connection to God alongside other men.

Are You Ready for the Fight?

This more than just a book launch-this is the kickoff to an incredible journey! Todd is hitting the road for the Fight Night Book Tour, bringing these lessons to life through interactive discussions, powerful testimonies, and real talk about what it means to walk boldly as a man of God today.

About the Author:

Todd Woodfill is a man blessed beyond measure and proof that God has a sense of humor. From being a husband to his incredible wife, Holly, for 30+ years, to raising for amazing kids and a grandchild who alternately call him “Papa” and “that old weirdo,” he’s been living a wild, grace-filled adventure.

Todd is passionate about men’s ministries, mental health advocacy, Legos, and boxing-yes, he is a man of layers like Shrek.  You might catch Todd talking about Jordan sneakers one moment, throwing a jab at the heavy bag the next, or surprisingly belting out a Disney tune with unapologetic joy. But his heart is always centered on helping men find God’s purpose in their lives.

Join the Fight!

Follow the tour schedule, grab a copy of the book, and let’s get ready to rumble-with faith as our foundation. God has incredible things in store, and Todd can’t wait to share this journey with you.

Author Interview


● What was the most challenging part of writing your book?

 

The most challenging part of writing Meow Meow Milks the Cow was time. When I first hired my virtual assistant, Heather Freeman, she suggested that I write picture books. While I thought it was a fun idea there’s a huge differencebetween writing novels and picture books. Plus, I was working on book 4 in a series of 6 and didn’t see how I would ever get around to writing a picture book. But with a lot of help from a great team 2 years later I had a book.

 

● What was the most enjoyable part of writing your book? 

 

It was amazing to see how everything worked out to make this book a reality. There was a scene that I really liked in my first book, Light of Mine that my editor made me cut because it didn’t flow well from a storytelling perspective. It basically pulled all of the intensity from the story, so she insisted that I pull it. But it always bugged me. One day I was talking to a picture book author, Pam Halter, and she said she could help me adapt that scene to a picture book format all I needed was an illustrator.

Well, my soon-to-be daughter-in-law had just drawn a nice set of characters depicting the children in the Towers of Light series and I thought, WOW that style would be perfect for a picture book. So, I had my story and my illustrator!

 


● Are any of your characters based off of yourself or those close to you?

 

The main characters are based on, and named after, my three children. There are even characters that show up in the books who were friends of my children in real life. In fact, Meow Meow himself is even named after Lauren’s real favorite stuffed animal.

 

● Was your writing process spontaneous as it came to you or very planned and organized? Why? 

 

The writing process for this story was very planned out since it came from a scene that I had already written. When I’m starting from scratch, I start with a high-level idea or concept I want to get across. Once I get that down, I create what I call a flight plan or a series of major events I’d like to happen. Then I stitch it all together.


● What is your next big goal as an author? 

 

Right now I have two other books launching in the next few weeks, The DadaBase+ (my best jokes from social media) and Logan vs. the Hateful Strawberries. After that I’m working on the next picture book in this series, Daddy Duck saves Cluck!


About the Author



Allen Brokken is a teacher at heart, a husband and father most of all. He’s a joyful writer by the abundant grace of God. He began writing the Towers of Light series for his own children to help him illustrate the deep truths of the Bible in an engaging and age appropriate way. He’s dedicated 15 years of his life to volunteer roles in children’s ministry and youth development. Now that his own children are off to college he’s telling stories and sharing clean humor on social media and through his blog.

 

 

More from Allen

Sometimes, a story just HAS to be told.  When I first wrote the book that became Light of Mine, book 1 of the Towers of Light series, there was a scene in which the main character, Lauren, and her newly found kitten are trying to milk the cow.  It was a sweet moment in a chaotic story, and I had fun writing it as an homage to my kitten squeaker, who made trying to work around home very challenging at times.  However, my editor was pretty clear that as cute as the story was, Meow Meow’s interlude with the milk cow Clarabelle just didn’t fit the story’s action.  So, unfortunately, that scene found its way to the cutting room floor.

After a few years, I started having mothers of children who loved the Towers of Light Series ask the same question over and over….”But what about my littles?”  Do you have a story for me to read to my younger children?  After thinking about it, I realized Meow Meow’s adventure might be a perfect read-aloud.  So I reached out to a fellow Realm Maker, Pam Halter, who has a really fun series of books with Willougby the Dragon, to see if she could help me turn my 2500-word novel scene into an 800-word picture book…and she did a fantastic job! So now we have Meow Meow Milks the Cow.

Another fun fact is that the character Ethan in this book is all grown up now and engaged to be married to Reace Erbe, and this is her first illustrated work in print.  So we all hope you enjoy this Tower of Light read to me.
