“I got published!”: Bettina Deda

We love hearing from our students no matter what they have to say, but when we hear of a student being published, we just want to shout it from the rooftops! We’re a little scared of heights, so we’ll go with a blog post instead.

Bettina says:

A BIG shoutout to Nigel Bartlett, who ran the Writing about Interiors, Style and Design course last year! Using his tips, I was commissioned by Australian Home Ideas and House & Garden to write feature stories. The first one has just been published in the November issue of Home Ideas. To read the entire story visit my website.

Congratulations Bettina! Wanna read what she wrote? Check out her website or follow this link.

If you have a success story to share with us, you can do so right here. We’ll share it with the world!
