Understanding Contracts in Creative Business - with Kiffanie Stahle of the artist's J.D.

Something I hear over and over again is, "I didn't get into this because of the business side of things; I got into it because I love knitting!" and I know it's something that most of my audience can relate to. So, chances are pretty high that you don't jump up and down with excitement over "all the legal stuff."Thankfully, I'm going to introduce you to your new best friend in this episode! Kiffanie Stahle is both a lawyer and a creative business owner. She's even a maker in the fiber industry! So she gets it.
