Promotional principles for creative people

Metalabel is drafting a work-in-progress guide of twelve promotional principles for creative people, and it is inviting comments and survey responses from readers before a final version is released later this summer. The article's author, Yancey, says the guide addresses both those who embrace promotion and those who are uncomfortable with it. Contributors whose input is used will be credited, invited to the drop, and placed on the split if the guide is sold. The same newsletter announces that The Creative Independent's zine On Making a Living as an Artist has been reissued for $5 in 50 editions, and that Metalabel has added category browsing and is hiring three roles.
