In this book, I want to offer a very simple but challenging argument: Real artists don’t starve. Making a living off your creative talent has never been easier, and to show you it’s possible I will share examples of well-known artists, creatives, and entrepreneurs who did not have to suffer to create their best work. And I will also introduce you to a contemporary group of professionals who are experiencing surprising amounts of success in their creative work. Finally, I will try to convince you that the idea of the Starving Artist is a useless myth that holds us back more than it helps us.
