A practical and friendly guide to taming your chaos written specifically for creative people by the bestselling author of Banish Clutter Forever.
‘Sheila gave me the tools to hunt success, and the infrastructure to handle it when it came.’ Stik, world renowned street artist and author Most of the conventional ‘productivity’ advice you’ll find in the ‘soft business’ section simply does not work for creative people. Surprisingly, to date there has not been a single book that addresses the unique organizational challenges that artists face. This book sets out to change that, it addresses the myth that truly creative people are messy and that they need mess in order to create. Sheila Chandra applies her professional insights as a ‘creative’ and organizing expert to the lives of other busy creative people in all disciplines – showing them how good organization can liberate their creative ‘magic’. She begins with artists’ physical spaces, including arranging their workspaces and offices so that they remain tidy effortlessly. Her career ‘headspace’ chapters cover
• creative well-being, including artist support systems
• career well-being, including networking and collaborations
• self-promotion and how to avoid working for free
• making social media pay
• personal branding, career planning and goals
• how to manage copyright issues and legal paperwork
• legacy management
And all from an artist’s point of view. These fool-proof, tried and tested systems are mixed with creativity tips and artist well-being advice that only one artist knows to give another. Written with real affection for the reader, Sheila Chandra takes the creative person by the hand and puts them on the path to success.

Organizing Your Creative Career How to Channel Your Creativity into Career Success edition by Sheila Chandra Stik Crafts Hobbies Home eBooks Reviews
- The book is filled with advice. The topic is trying to wrestle your creative urges with your life, impulses and feelings. The author tries to make it very clear that you can balance your creative drive and your own life. ("But I have kids!" you might hear, well, yes, you can still be creative if you make time for those desires).
The author brings up other excuses people use to discourage their artistic impulses. The answers are direct and no nonsense.
Short chapters, insights and humor make for a good read. - The style of writing is personal and engaging. It really covers all the bases from self worth to selling your product and safeguarding your concepts. Very necessary for young artists of all expressions to read. Loving it.
- A quick and enjoyable read. This is in no way a "homework assignment ". Read it, assimilate it, apply it to your creative life. You'll be glad you did.
- This book was recommended to me. As an artist and writer I needed it. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to get organized enough to read it all the way through. Maybe some day, lol...
- There is useful advice here, whether you are an artist trying to make art your career, or a business person who does/wants to do art. I found advice useful to help me get better organized and some things I wish I'd thought to teach my children! Chandra does a great job addressing the attitudinal blocks that may get in the way of being organized in the first place or could block the necessary changes that go with implementing the recommendations. This book is convincing regarding the benefits of being organized and clear about how to accomplish that goal. It goes beyond organizing workspace and establishing consistent processes to good advice on things like NOT hiring relatives, how to write a press release and more.
- I run my own business in the art field and am constantly working to improve my current techniques in addition to learning new crafts. That being the case, I have a separate set of tools and supplies for each skill I find myself interested in learning. (This is in addition to my full time job.)
This book is EXACTLY what I've been needing. I've been going insane in my failed attempts at organizing because no organizing advice that I've come across have targeted the creative audience with their multiple projects, plethora of supplies and all the other items that are involved when one not only works in a creative field, but runs a business doing it. This book covered all bases in a simple, straight-to-the-point manner. Highly recommended to anyone who works with their hands, whether you're juggling 20 projects, or one. - A clear help for those minds swirling in the stars of creativity.
- This was reaffirmation for me that organizing is not representative of diminished artistic creativity. I've always fought the idea that we must be some "mad" out of control artistic wild one. The first 20 years of my adult life was spent as a guitar maker and sometimes seeing that vast collection of wood to use would stop me in my tracks. What should I use? And in what combination etc.? Too many choices PLUS inner confusion and weak focus lead to a stalemate. I later found the same thing in my music recording career. Sheila points out that organizing, focusing actually helps the creative process. Great tips on where to start and maintain. An efficiency of action. Maybe also a sense of mindfulness. If you want to get from A to B, this will make the journey faster with perhaps less confusion.
