Hello everybody, welcome with three point perspective.

The podcast about illustration, how to do it, how to make a living at it, how to make an impact

in the world with your art.

I'm Jake Parker.

I'm Lee White.

And I'm Will Terry and all three of us are professional illustrators.

We've all worked for all the major publishers in the business. Together, we've

published somewhere around 75 children's books. And we've all taught illustration at university

art programs. Each week, we come at you guys with different listener questions or interviews with

illustrators and people in the field. Sometimes we agree, sometimes we argue,

but each time you learn something, Brands Bank, and New.

One and done. All right. Very good. We have a couple, right off the bat, just a couple things we

wanted to talk about before we dive into questions. Lee, you want us to tell us about the

unique book offer you got?

I don't know. This is a sad state of affairs. You know, lately we've been pushing

some publicing. I don't want to lean too hard into that, but I did receive, and this is

unique and notable, the lowest offer in my illustration career.

And I've been doing this a long time since 2003 professionally, so 20 years.

Got an offer to do a book today for $1,300.

Total.

I can't believe that.

That's a 32-page children's book.
