About this ebook

To survive in today's gig economy, you must be a mover, a shaker, a doer, and a maker. In The Hustle Economy, we give you 25 essays from founders, writers, producers, game makers, artists, and creative types from every path who share one common trait -- they are all self-made hustlers who have managed to turn their creativity into careers.

In this collection you will find essays from:

Producer and performer Mike Rugnetta on why "Do what you love" is both the best and worst piece of advice you'll ever receive.
Author, television writer, and humorist Emma Koenig on staying focused and productive no matter what life throws at you.
Web comic Zach Weinersmith on the equation for success and using your creativity to do what the rest of us won't.
Trendspotter Jess Kimball Leslie on identifying your skills and turning it into a successful career.

This book exists to inspire and inform. Your creative career is attainable, and we'll show you how to do it and why it's worth it.
