Kind of like enneagram/Myers Briggs/astrology specifically for artists!

Preparing for Success, Picking Yourself First, and Why We Need Your Art
We interrupt Creativity 101 for a special episode! Help us prepare for Amie's guest appearance on a big podcast.
Also, I'm writing this from the future AFTER the podcast recording happened. It went really well thank you for asking. I sat in on the whole thing and Amie killed it. For some reason, she speaks much better when she's talking to someone who isn't her husband (swirly eye emoji).
Hey! You can pre-order Amie's book now! Links are HERE!
