I have asked Maya Scarpa and Sophia Franco to be guest hosts on this mailbag episode, where they asked audience questions, and I answered them. Most of the questions revolve around how to find illustration work, agents, burnout, time management, and taxes. Maya and Sophia are both recent graduates of the illustration program at the College for Creative Studies and former students of mine. Both are very talented and you should hire them.

A production note: Maya’s microphone cut out a bit throughout the podcast. I did the best I could to get the audio leveled up.
