Show Your Work!: 10 Ways to Share Your Creativity and Get Discovered (Austin Kleon)

In his New York Times bestseller Steal Like an Artist, Austin Kleon showed readers how to unlock their creativity by â€œstealingâ€ from the community of other movers and shakers. Now, in an even more forward-thinking and necessary book, he shows how to take that critical next step on a creative journeyâ€”getting known. Show Your Work! is about why generosity trumps genius. Itâ€™s about getting findable, about using the network instead of wasting time â€œnetworking.â€ Itâ€™s not self-promotion, itâ€™s self-discoveryâ€”let others into your process, then let them steal from you. Filled with illustrations, quotes, stories, and examples, Show Your Work! offers ten transformative rules for being open, generous, brave, productive. In chapters such as You Donâ€™t Have to Be a Genius; Share Something Small Every Day; and Stick Around, Kleon creates a userâ€™s manual for embracing the communal nature of creativityâ€” what he calls the â€œecology of talent.â€ From broader life lessons about work (you canâ€™t find your voice if you donâ€™t use it) to the etiquette of sharingâ€”and the dangers of oversharingâ€”to the practicalities of Internet life (build a good domain name; give credit when credit is due), itâ€™s an inspiring manifesto for succeeding as any kind of artist or entrepreneur in the digital age.
