Have you considered partnering with other artists & marketing yourselves as a group? I found that helped immensely, especially when I was starting out. It has become easier to market myself but in the beginning it made me absolutely cringe. I think this is hard for many artists, Gemma.

I'm not terribly good at it but from a blog point of view you rather need to market yourself and for someone with rather low self esteem that isn't the easiest thing to do!

No conversation, no personality. It makes me want to go to the other extreme -- no self-promotion. But I'm sure that's not the best solution either. I really admire Sister Diane & enjoyed her first e-book. I would love to win this one -- thanks for the giveaway!

It was my new years resolution, my winter goal, my spring goal and my summer goal. Now I am a recovering procrastinator but still I just do not have a clue. I hate to put a piece of garbage out there with my name on it. I would love to have this book. My goal is to set up a website and a blog this year.

However, I can market my friends' work with ease. I'd like to learn to be able to do that for myself without feeling like I'm being that annoying person who is all "look at me look at me". :) I love merchandising and setting up booth design, etc. But when it comes to actually talking about my own work at shows, etc, I come up tongue-tangled.
