What people are saying...
I approached Dell Self after hearing her tell the audience that she turns writers into authors. She held to her claim and now I have a published book. I found the whole experience, while learning the techniques of making good products, as life changing. I have and will recommend Dell’s work to others who are willing to work, but do not know how to bring their vision to light. As a minister and speaker, my dream is to share my message.
