RE: #DolphinSchool 13 Tips on Audience building, a backup image tool and more!
As someone trying to start a writing blog such as yourself, your words are pure gold.
I really believe the beginning stages are all to do with establishing oneself, creating a historical reference point so people can decide whether you are worthy of following or not. Money should be the by-product of that, not the main focal point.
Inspiring and ever so true, great post! Looking forward to the next, Mark!
It's nice to say that money should be the side effect of art, but as someone who has made their living as an artist for my entire adult life, I call shenanigans. Unfortunately, the reality is that most of us cannot afford the grueling schedule and vigorous demands required to create good art, unless it gives us something in return. The best way is to make it feed and clothe you so that you can devote yourself to it.
