Real Artists Don’t Starve: Timeless Strategies for Thriving in the New Creative Age

“Jeff Goins doesn’t just show us how to be more creative. He also reveals a path for turning our art into business and our business into art. Every entrepreneur, writer, and artist should read this book and take notes.”
–DANIEL H. PINK, author of Drive and To Sell Is Human

“Jeff Goins has established himself as a fresh and dynamic voice inspir­ing us to get out of our own way and produce our best work. Real Artists Don’t Starve is the work of angels: a book every aspiring writer, artist, and creative must read.”
–STEVEN PRESSFIELD, bestselling author of The War of Art

“Anyone trying to make a living from their creative work will find much to steal here.”
–AUSTIN KLEON, author of Steal Like an Artist

“Jeff puts to rest the myth of the starving artist. Artists not only deserve to be well rewarded, but there are more opportunities than ever for them to make it happen. This book is not only the blueprint, it’s also Jeff’s personal artistic manifesto. And now it’s mine.”
–JAMES ALTUCHER, author and entrepreneur

“Goins dispels the myth that being a creative is some illusive, mysterious dimension reserved for a chosen few. A great book for anyone bogged down by old­-fashioned ideas about what it takes to be a thriving artist.”
–LISA CONGDON, artist and author of Art Inc
