This is what people
are saying about Bette after they have heard her speak:
I truly enjoyed your
message and how it was presented. It's
so nice to laugh and enjoy the company of other women! I do hope you are feeling better
and will make a speedy recovery.
Blessings,
Tracey Hopkins, Gig Harbor
Bette:
Thank you so much for your part in our Festival of Tables at Chapel Hill
Church. Everyone, including myself, thought you were a wonderful speaker.
I hope that your back is getting better. I am the person that was mistaken
for you, your sister and your mother.
Blessings,
Joanne Williams, Gig Harbor.
Bette is a delight to
listen to and a bundle of energy. One moment you are laughing and
the next you are quietly and intently listening, as she brings home a
point to contemplate in your life of faith, in Jesus. The women at
Chapel Hill loved her and I would recommend Bette for any women’s
program in their church or club.
Sandy Jasper, Chapel Hill Presbyterian Church.
Our speaker last night was
Bette Nordberg, a local Bethany author,
talking about plotting. You should
consider having her sometime at WTP. She
is great! She has loads of energy and wonderful teaching style. The
audience
wanted her to keep going (but Lydia made
her close). She shows how to make
the standard plot line work powerfully
by thinking of plot in a circular
fashion. She teaches specific ways to escalate
and descend plot, how to look
for ideas and characters-- and I know
given more time she would have tons
more to share. You could tell she was
overflowing with things she had
discovered and wanted to share it with
us. So often when I sit in fiction
classes (outside of maybe Ken's) the
speaker seems to be holding back his or
her secrets. I learn a lot but, you feel like they don't want competition
or
want to let go of what really works.
Bette couldn't share what she had
discovered fast enough. I think she
would be a good fit for WTP.

"Bette
is energetic, observant, and fun loving. Through her abundant use of
Scripture and personal testimony we were encouraged to trust our God, His
who is might, in the every day of life."
Jean Britt, Pastors wife @ Bible Chapel, Auburn, Washington
I
liked Bette immediately. Her charismatic personality and down-to-earth
style not only kept my attention, but I found myself wanting more. Her
passion for the craft of writing is empowering. I left feeling I, too,
could pursue my dreams and make it happen.
