Income Streams For Children's Book Illustrators

Sep 21, 2022

Illustrators Pat Cummings, Shadra Strickland, Xindi Yan and Rudy Gutierrez joined us to talk about this important topic! Pat moderated a lively conversation, asking the others to talk about the kinds of work they’ve done and to share some of their experience and wisdom. A few things talked about: 

• Targeting your portfolio towards the kind of work you want to get
• What does your agent/rep/legal team look like outside of kidlit?
• Keeping the rights to your work
• Negotiating joint permission with the client -to use your work
• Publicizing your work outside of kidlit
• And more!
