Don’t give much attention to the “bad” market narrative. Markets are individual. Artists need to spend more time on narrative and relationships. I think ‘21/‘22 gave a lot of people the false impression that cranking out cool jpegs was how it's done. Artists would do well to build the support structure they need for their career. It's an excellent time to do that now with less noise.

“bad markets” are a great opportunity to build genuine relationships with people much harder to reach in a raging bull
