Title: Show Your Work! 10 Ways to Share Your Creativity and Get Discovered
Author: Austin Kleon
Genre: Art, Business
Show Your Work! by Austin Kleon is a short, quick read that merges a how-to guide with the inspiration of a self-help book (but without the cheese). With Kleon's encouraging advice, you will finish the book feeling inspired and confident on how to move forward in promoting your creativity. Kleon lays out 10 easy ways for creatives to share with others what they're doing in a way that's authentic and meaningful. From how to talk about your creative ventures to strangers (even if you aren't making any money from it yet) to practical ideas of what to post on social media (even if you don't have a "finished product"), Kleon's presentation is really approachable, and any creative (artists, writers, musicians, etc.) would find something beneficial to glean from this book. Highly recommended.
