Success is not all about how much money you make but on how you make people feel. And our guest for this week will truly light up the artist in you when you see his works.
Joining us in this week’s episode is author, illustrator, and professor Jon Sideriadis. Actually, this isn’t his first time on the podcast (see the link below for his first episode with The Artist Appeals).
Jon is here to delight all of us with his current epic fantasy book- Astromythos. Not only that, but he’s also here to talk about his worldbuilding processes (any Tolkien fans here?), his forthcoming second book, an RPG (role-playing game) based on that book, protecting your intellectual property, and a whole lot more.
If you want to be inspired and learn how to pivot from one career path to another, tune in to this episode. You don’t want to miss this!
