This is a great book probably to read but a bit dull to listen to. Maybe it’s the narrator’s voice? I’d still buy it though as it has valuable information to help any budding or seasoned artist further their revenue streams.

It’s all in the voice

Practical and no nonsense approach to many aspects of becoming a professional artist, more for beginners but established artists can also learn from it.

Yes she is... And she is also very generous in sharing her wisdom and experiences in this audio book.
I'm going to listen to it one more time to make sure it has really sunk into my artist brain.
Thanks Lisa!

The information was concise and to-the-point but I would have someone else narrate.

A good summary of work as an illustrator without going into unnecessary details. Was useful.

A good overview of things to consider

Well narrated, and well planned out, seems to cover everything you need to know to become better at your art business by a seasoned professional herself

Great book and professional outlook for artists

Quite uninteresting and content-less. I’ve seen reviewers calling it concise, but it just doesn’t go into depth into anything. I also feel snubbed paying for it, and then the next week it’s on the included list.

Disappointing
