I had a recent inquiry about the list below, which was a part of The Artist’s Survival Kit. So I thought I would post it again here in case you didn’t see it already. This piece has been more popular that I ever imagined. It seems to have own life now.
I love that this list has been somewhat controversial to some, it garners a slightly hostile response in a few people (who wrote me expressing upset with it’s “negative” feel). You should probably know by now that I love any work that provokes a unique response from every reader. All of my work is based on this. When I wrote it I felt it was innately positive so the response is interesting to me.
