I just recently read The Unconventional Guide to Art and Money (incl. audio interviews), by Chris Guillebeau and Zoë Westhof.
My review of this guide is:
“WOW! BRAVO on writing such a GREAT guide! I wish that I had read this when I first started out as an artist!”
I’ve been mentioned in 37signals‘ Weblog, Signal vs. Noise! The post, called The Word Entrepreneur and Its Baggage, questions whether or not people like me should be called an ‘entrepreneur’ or if this term is a bit outdated.
Personally, when people ask me what I do for a living, I tell them that I’m an artist. I never once called myself an entrepreneur, even though I work long hours trying to grow my business. Why? Maybe it’s because I work long hours to support my artwork. I created my business, Soniei’s Contemporary Art, so that I could make paintings. All this business stuff is to support my passion for art. Although, I must admit, I’m having fun with the business side of things too.
Nevertheless, if someone were to call me an entrepreneur, I wouldn’t care either. I wouldn’t even give it a thought. It’s just another label. Call me what you want because it doesn’t affect me one way or the other. But, one thing I DO care about is that…. I’m in Signal vs. Noise! Yoohoo!
Right now, I’m doing my happy-dance because I’m honored and delighted to be in Chris Guillebeau’s manifesto, 279 Days to Overnight Success! Guillebeau is also the author of The Unconventional Guide to Working for Yourself: Creating Personal Freedom through a Very Small Business.
If you’re a writer, a blogger, an artist or you’re thinking of creating your own dream job, you must read “279 Days to Overnight Success”. It’s full of advice on how to be successful with your own project and how to expand your online presence. If you want extra motivation to live your best life, then make sure to check out the rest of Guillebeau’s website, The Art of Non-Conformity. You’ll be glad you did! (more…)
