In this episode I talk about some new apps I found and then dig into the main topic. The main topic is in response to some stuff I recently read in 'The War of Art' by Steven Pressfield. I really enjoyed this book and think there are more than a few tips that can help set us artist's free to pursue the creative path set before us! Want to be on the show?

In this episode I start up with my struggles with conceptualizing illustration work for clients as apposed to doing it for yourself. I end the mini topic with a call to action for any advice in this area from many of you who are more experienced in this area. For the larger topic I continue to discuss sale's fundementals with the example of selling comics focusing on the principle of "building rapport, or building trust".

In this episode I talk about my experience this past weekend attending ConnectiCON. It was interesting to attend a convention with comics that was more centered around the gaming and anime world than traditional American comics. All in all it was a good weekend that I got to hang out with my friend Will and talk to some cool artists!
