Testimonials

“In Strong Words and Simple Truths, author Brenda Smull provides a fun and often quirky compilation of nine years of her blog on communications and creative expression. Too often, books on this subject can bore the reader to the point of loss of interest. Such is certainly not the case within these pages. I believe you will find this a thought provoking and entertaining journey. Highly recommended for those of curious mind.”

– Richard Phillips, Amazon best-selling Author

“I’ve had the pleasure of hearing many of these stories at Toastmasters and Brenda’s passion for communication shines through on every page!”

-Don W. Griffith, DTM, Toastmasters International Director 2012-2014
