🤗It's really damn difficult as a creative to make a living. Somehow my husband and I get by but we've lived most of the last 10 years on less than one Min wage between 2 of us. Luckily we have our home. Sometimes I don't know how people live. I try to help #TheFrugalistBook #YourCreativeBusinessBook
I didn't read all of it but it's a great message. At 18 I decided my whole life was going to be about making stories to tell when I was old. Oh yeah I did and I do. When I look back at my life I do have that "wow what a ride! "moment. I was never rich but I am happy! #YourCreativeBusinessBook.
There's a lot of "gatekeeping". Don't join the guilds or look for the prestige publishing house/gallery. Don't stand behind the gates, or knock politely on the doors JUST MAKE ART. Self Publish Self Exhibit. Learn to use the software. Learn to market. #YourCreativeBusinessBook #TheFrugalistBook
I'm an immigrant (not an 'ex-pat') and a #Craft author I live frugally in Spain. I couldn't be happier & my neighbours couldn't be more welcoming. It's been hard financially. Not as hard as staying in the UK #MakingItSmall book #TheFrugalistBook #YourCreativeBusinessBook #SelfPublishYourCraftBook
For #Crafts #Creativity and #CreativeBusiness this means they seem to have recognised the value of free creative content we provide. Could be worth trying Facebook again if you've been pissed off with them. Even a synthetic heart to big business is better than no heart😉 #YourCreativeBusinessBook
If you are self employed you make your own hours. Its tough and unreliable as far as income but boy is it FREE. I wish I'd started making multiple income streams earlier too! #YourCreativeBusinessBook
