It's called "How To Make A Living By Working For Free" and you can buy it here for £5 (digital) or £8 (paperback). Here's the synopsis of the book -  The book is a how-to guide for artists to create their own online community for their work and how that community can support the artist to become sustainable in every way.The book takes a critical and in-depth look at the media's perception of "free content" vs the reality of what the general public see it as.If you're an artist in the modern age who wants a sustainable audience you're no longer just an artist, you're a community leader. If you'd like to read the first few chapters of the book you can find a PDF version of that here.---------------------------------------------------------------------- Follow me - http://twitter.com/thismademecool Support the podcast - https://www.patreon.com/AskTheIndustryPodcast?ty=h Join the Facebook community - https://www.facebook.com/groups/AskTheIndustryPodcast  Links for Idil -  Her personal website - https://500px.com/idil/sets Her twitter - https://twitter.com/idilsukan Her Facebook page - https://www.facebook.com/IdilSukanPhotography Her company - http://shop.drawhq.com/----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Want more content from me?
