| 10/16/26 | Is there any point becoming an illustrator now that AI is here? An interview with James Martin @madebyjames PART 1! | Trigger warning: In this episode, James talks openly about his experience of childhood sexual abuse, as well as addiction (drugs and alcohol). It's mentioned briefly in the 06:52 to 11:00 section and discussed again from 45:23. There's also plenty of strong language throughout. Look after yourself and skip this episode/seek support if you need it. This week our Katie is chatting to James Martin, AKA @MadebyJames. He's a designer, author, Canva design advisory board member & creative partn... | 57m 56s | ||||||

Don't cry! She's coming back, really!) RIP to our dear friend and editor Deirdre McDermott of Walker Books, who died recently. Dee was a legend. We don't have the words to do her justice here, but we miss her very very much. 💛 And of course, Smelly Peggy too. Timestamps, for the timestamp fans: 00:00 – Helen and Katie are back 00:45 – Any consistency hacks? Katie... | 25m 15s | ||||||
| 10/2/26 | Help! Posting my illustration work makes me cringe 😬 | This week it's just Helen and Katie here (helloo - Tania was off in Naples eating pizza for us. We were living vicariously through her.) Let's get stuck in and answer your excellent questions about marketing your illustration work. "I just don't know where to begin!" and overcoming our arch nemesis: cringe. Plus SLOTH FACTS. You're welcome. Timestamps, for the timestamp fans: 00:00 – Time off is good for you, and good for business 01:00 – Helen's short, intense work bursts o... | 22m 31s | ||||||

(Illustration Business Club doors now open!) 🎉🎉🎉 | This week, we're back at the kitchen table after the summer holidays, and the doors to Illustration Business Club are officially OPEN! Wahoooo 🎉 A quick catch-up first: Katie trying to not-work for six whole weeks, and Tania's summer spent changing her work on a big museum project.

An interview with Carly Kuhn | This week our Katie is chatting to Carly Kuhn, a US-based illustrator, artist and author who ended up in illustration kindofbyaccident. She grew up in New York wanting to do TV comedy, worked at a Hollywood talent agency, took improv classes at The Groundlings, and started drawing on printer paper nicked from the office, just as something creative to do after work.
