The Artist Book Club: “Everybody Writes” by Ann Handley

Next up for the Artisan Advantage Book Club is Everybody Writes by Ann Handley.

Writing is essential to your visual art business.  You have a message to share, and at times you need to communicate that message in writing.  The more you do this, the better you will be at speaking about it, and the more people can learn about it.    So, I’m here to encourage you to write!  As a first step, let’s read this book.

This is a book that’s helpful for anyone wanting to boost their writing skills, including for an art business.  Handley breaks down the writing process in a clear manner. She gives great tips on making catchy headlines, writing blog posts, and content for social media updates. Whether you’re an avid writer or just starting to write for your business, this book has something for everyone. Handley’s focus on keeping it real and understanding your audience makes it easy to learn and apply.
