I think once you unlock the question of your 'chosen market', so much can become clear! Such as what you want to develop in your portfolio. I am not entirely clear about my chosen market yet, but I try to look to artists I admire to try to see what and how they do what they do. But I do think that is the toughest bit!
Great advice, Adam! So spot on the chosen market bit! The change of market can be a big leap! A few things to consider: size (that will affect your fees), access (would you need an agent, or could you reach editors directly?), strengths (where your work is more suited)
So true, like any business there are so many decisions to be made and it's important not to think only of the creative decisions, although those play a part.
Great advice, as usual! Based on an earlier post you made, I just updated my boring bio on Twitter/X and Bluesky to state that I’m knocking on the door, let me in!!!! I am taking your advice sir, someone will open the door for me, soon, hopefully.
