Laughers, immerse yourselves in the captivating world of historical fiction with the celebrated author Sydney Tooman Betts as she delves into her distinguished “The People of the Book” and “Phoebe’s Mysteries” series. Peek behind the curtain of Sydney's life as a teacher and ESL instructor turned prolific writer, exploring the intricate tapestry of American Indian culture and the poignant journey of her characters. With a seventh book in the works, Sydney opens up about her reader interactions, her writing process, and the bittersweet challenges of saying goodbye to beloved characters. Her tales of romance, faith, and mystery echo her own life experiences and possess a depth that resonates with readers far and wide. Join us for lively discussions ranging from the profound impact of missionaries on native cultures to the lighthearted banter on her favorite comic “Nate Berkus” which we discovered was actually Nate Bargatze lol. Dig into Sydney’s disdain for cliffhangers, her commitment to authenticity, and her inspirations drawn from the Shenandoah Valley to create riveting narratives without predictability.
