I also suggest: The Artist's Guide: How to Make a Living Doing What You Love<http://www.artistcareerguide.com/buy.php> / Jackie Battenfield, 2009 Jackie Battenfield facilitates professional development workshops for artists through Creative Capital. Both her book and workshops are excellent and very practical. From the summary in the book's catalog record: "Using a "tough love approach" to pursuing a career in the visual arts, Jackie Battenfield expands on her highly successful classes and workshops to provide a comprehensive guide for both emerging and mid-career artists. Providing real-life examples, illustrations, and step-by-step exercises, Battenfield offers readily applicable advice on all aspects of the job. Along with tips on planning and assessment, she presents strategies for self-management, including marketing, online promotion, building professional relationships, grant writing, and portfolio development. Each chapter ends with an insightful "Reality Check" interview, featuring advice and useful information from high-profile artists and professionals. The result is an inspiring, experiential guide brimming with field-tested techniques that readers can easily apply to their own career."
