Thank you for planning such a wonderful symposium.
– Vernelle Edwards, Author of Missionary
I just want to let you know that the ASPICOMM Self-Publishing Symposium was one of the best events of its kind that I have been to. I am honored to have been a part of the event and serve as an emcee and judge. – Heather Covington, Editor-in-Chief for Disilgold
It is monumental for information exposure to be highlighted to the nth degree. – Marc Lacy, Author of The Looking Heart.
The symposium provided information that I can apply, which I like, because the application of anything bridges the gap between what we want and expected results. I know how to write a book, but marketing is another world for me. The symposium has provided much food for thought and has paved a path for a new direction.
– Joan Robertson, Author of In the Winter of Her Season.
The Symposium was a wonderful event--well planned and well executed with marvelous presenters from all aspects of the self-publishing world. In addition, there was a spiritual quality to the symposium that was quite inspirational. I found myself being spiritually "fed" by the presenters who were so willing to share their stories and struggles with us. Vickie Stringer was particularly impressive--what a powerhouse she is! Thank you for a well-organized conference.
--Lonnetta M. Taylor-Gaines,
Author of Fia and the Butterfly: 7 Stories for Character Education.
Renee Flagler, all that we can say is "AWESOME," We were just blown away at the Symposium being a sponsor we came out to support Rene, however, once there. We learned so much, being in the distribution business, you don't get a chance to see the other side of the literary world.
We couldn't believe that I sat on a panel hosted by Vickie Stringer, We thought to ourselves, heck, we sell her books (smile). Truly this was a wonderful event, very well put together. Renee did a great job with the people she choose to offer their expertise.
Heather Covington, outdid herself as the MC. She kept our attention and that is hard to do. She made the introductions and kept everyone in tune, not a boring moment, and the food was great.
Renee was chosen as Entrepreneur of the Year at C&B Books and now everyone knows why!
We can't wait for the next symposium.”
