Creative Girl: The Ultimate Guide for Turning Talent and Creativity into a Real Career
Almost the entire second half of the book is focused on entrepreneurship & self employment, & half of THAT is specifically for someone like the author who has products that they'd like to sell to celebs (like jewelry). Those topics aren't really what I expected the book to focus so heavily on and they aren't the reason I picked it up.
I liked the journal exercises (coping with a dull day-job, fear chart, emotional/mental well-being). The rest of advice & topics were simply okay. The problem is that I've already read more comprehensive job search advice books. I was really looking for this one to more specifically address the creativity aspect.
