The Day Job Issue

In this edition of The ARTrepreneur, we're going to talk about the one thing all artists dread: Day Job Hell. Cue the dramatic music.

You know, slaving away at some torturous dead end gig just so you can eat, dreaming of a better life when you will make a living doing what you really want to do. It's as common as the common cold. We've all had it. Some of us still have it. In this issue, we're going to finally cure it.

Just kidding, but we might be able to alleviate some of the suffering. Some of it's inspirational, some of it's humorous, and some of it's probably just plain pathetic, but all of it's informative and, hopefully, helpful to you, the artist in pain.
