Summary

An audio compilation of Steal Like an Artist, Show Your Work and Keep Going.

Read by the author, it’s the bestselling and transformative series on how to unlock your creativity, find community and an audience in the digital age, and stay focused, creative and true to yourself—for life. Includes full text from:

Steal Like an Artist: The New York Times bestselling book on the ten things nobody ever told you about being creative. Including nothing is original, so embrace influence. School yourself through the work of others. Remix and reimagine to discover your own path. And forget the old cliché about writing what you know: Instead, write the book you want to read, make the movie you want to watch.

Show Your Work: How to take that critical next step on a creative journey―getting known and finding your people. A user’s manual for embracing the communal nature of creativity, this inspiring manifesto is a blueprint for succeeding as any kind of artist or entrepreneur in the digital age.

Keep Going: Timeless, practical, and ethical principles for anyone trying to sustain a meaningful and productive life. Worry less about getting things done, and more about the worth of what you’re doing. Instead of focusing on making your mark, work to leave things better than you found them. Above all, keep working, keep playing, keep creating—keep going.

Never have I come across more helpful books as a creative person

I have all of Austin Kleon’s books, and had to get the audiobook too! For someone who is very creative, these books really speak to me and have helped me massively with my work and personal projects. He. Is. Awesome. He also has cool newsletters that are worth signing up for.

A guidebook to creativity

A reference not only for creative people, but also for life in general. I am tempted to but the paperback version just to keep as a reference. Very much enjoyed this series.

Just brilliant!

Loved everything about this book, I’m on my 3rd listen now and still getting more out of this trilogy. I love the pace and the humour injected, also how Austin keeps it very real how the life of a creative is. Excellent books!
