*nods* Yeah illustration for sure, there's only one decent independent publisher in Western Australia, so I'd need to be approaching international audiences but I'm okay with that since I sell mostly to the US anyway.
I was thinking about it, I've only been doing this full-time for about 4 months (since I left Baines), any turn over at all is pretty good considering that most small businesses run at a loss for the first 2 years. While I might have years of experience, it's only been 4 months that I've been looking more into the networking side of things.
I will look into illustration, I've heard mixed things about the ability to get decent paid work. The big publishers tend to have favourites, the small publishers sometimes can't afford to pay. So we'll see, I need to strike up a balance atm with paid work too.
