From corporate job to freelance creativity

A few weeks ago, I finished the third draft of a novel. I’ll be sending it off to agents soon, as well as investigating self-publishing options. I’m also premiering my art film about the post-industrial landscape of north west England. Neither of these projects would have got off the ground without Sheryl.
She helped me transition from my rewarding but stressful and corporate-heavy job into a freelance career focused around creativity. Her thoughtful insights encourage sustainable working practices any creative person would find invaluable.

Get The Creative Companion

A bi-weekly newsletter for creative professionals: actors, artists, designers, directors, makers, musicians, performers, photographers, producers, stylists, writers – and anyone else who earns a living from what they create (or aspires to).

I talk about the challenges of the creative life, offer solutions that have worked for me and my coaching clients, and share resources, tips and links from our growing community of brilliant creatives.

Creative work can sometimes feel lonely. But it doesn’t have to be that way. Join us!
