Adapted from an article on the photographer Tim Archibald, good advice for those in the creative business: 

• Learn the history of your craft.
• Tell someone whose work you love why you love it.
• Surround yourself with a community of peers whose work you admire.
• Don’t pay a consultant for advice, listen closely to your friends.
• Call a creative worker on the phone and ask them how they made a project you like.
• Always be honest and generous with your advice to others.
• Learn how to be happy for your fellow creatives when they kick ass.

Mark sent this along the other day... in solidarity with our ink-stained-scribbler friends who are suffering in the dead-tree media industry...

Very amusing... a dramatisation of the format struggle the industry is going through.

MY favorite line... <whispers> "Four K."

Found this good article at iMedia Connection, and see it as a nice "Business 101" reminder.
