Book Synopsis

Enticing, heart wrenching, and darkly funny, the interconnected stories in The Artstars bring together an eclectic mix of artists as they grapple with economic realities and evolving expectations and struggle to find the spark of something new and original within themselves.



Trade Review

The Artstars is about what people are willing to do – have always been willing to do, really – to be artists: take meaningless day jobs, endure writer's block, weather bad reviews, live in substandard housing, and collect rejection letters while friends collect accolades.
