Cream of The Crop

By SLART

I’m the new Jean Dubuffet. I write (at least) twice weekly about my art practice and share stories about the journey of moving from a day job to a full-time professional artist.

The Real Story

By Brent Hartinger

The website and newsletter of novelist/screenwriter Brent Hartinger. The story of my writing career is almost as interesting as my books and movies!

I love Brent's writing. Provides a juicy glimpse into the world of writing and publishing, and I always feel smarter and entertained whenever I read his posts.

One of my favourites. It's like hanging out with two friends and getting to follow along with their adventures. It helps that they're very good at turning all that into beautiful stories as well.
