We do manage to finally have that chat about affiliate marketing today, where we explain what it is and how you can use it to earn anything from a few extra pounds each month, to a substantial amount if you give it some welly.

But we obviously never keep on the straight and narrow, so you'll be delighted to know that Jill shares another of her 'stories' and this week it features that traditional English game...Cricket!

We'd also like to start featuring some of your news each week, so if you have anything going on that you would like to share with the art community, then do drop us a message over on Facebook and we'll give you a mention. As ever, make sure you've joined our Facebook group over at facebook.com/groups/lifeandpencils and if you have any excess art supplies to sell or are looking for a bargain, do swing by the art for sale and swap group at facebook.com/groups/newandusedartsupplies.

If you're reading this over on iTunes, then we'd appreciate it if you could drop us a review or share the podcast with your arty friends.
