The way we were – where it all started, all the way back in 2013. We unearthed this historic review from Make Art That Sells student Reg Silva from all the way back in 2014

Light your fire: 2 FREE mini assignments from art agent Lilla

Lilla here. Something else came up in a recent live Zoom event with my My Arty Book Pitch students that I wanted to share with you. Here’s what I want you to know. I see how hard you’re working to get that project to happen, whatever it might be. For my My Arty Book Pitch students, it’s their illustrated book pitch, but it might be building a portfolio or setting up a new website or sending out kidlitart postcards or honing your style. That new phase – learning new things, discovering new things you want to do – should never stop. Here I am, in my late 60s, and I’m still figuring out what floats my boat, how I can help, what makes me excited, and what I’m dying to do. My first book, I just like to make things, for Quarry Books. I want you to keep that passion.
