Schwartz On Sports: Giants Superfan Amy Nolan

A long lost relative of one Mrs Pepperpot, Amy Nolan—who writes the Doodle Digest newsletter—has been doodling since she was a kid. "My dad would make sure that I always had plain papers to doodle on," she smiled. From pillowcases and shoes to her dog Barry, Amy has experimented with a wide range of canvasses for doodling. Today, Amy also creates commissioned business illustrations that I highly encourage you to check out! In this episode, Amy and I unpack a lot about baking disasters, creativity, flipping the narrative of your newsletter, taking your art seriously, not second-guessing yourself or your audience, handling unsubscriptions, and a whole lot more. And consider yourself warned: there's a LOT of giggling as well. This is episode number 16 on the Newsletter Nerd Show. Find out more at www.thenewsletternerdshow.com

#16 Doodle Digest ft. Amy Nolan

This week I chat with illustrator and visual storyteller, Amy Nolan about why we should all be creating our own visuals at least some of the time to have scroll-stopping content.  Join our conversation where we chat about:  &gt;&gt; How Amy got into doodling and creating content from these pictures.  &gt;&gt; And how her creative release which was not to do with work brought her to new lines of work.  &gt;&gt; Using doodles to feel comfortable on social media and represent yourself rather than trying to do what everyone else is doing.  &gt;&gt; Ways in which images can be used as a means of communication beyond Instagram and cartoons &gt;&gt; How you can practise your craft while training and use what you create as content &gt;&gt; The curse of perfectionism when it comes to creating art and the dangers of self-editing &gt;&gt; How Amy has brought more of her personality into her work and why this matters &gt;&gt; Why professional doodling looks easier than it is to do professionally but why it is so accessible.  &gt;&gt; Why content creators and business owners need to start creating their own visuals and how they can approach this &gt;&gt; The power behind hand-drawn work and showing your imperfections.  Amy also talks about her current project to create doodle stock imagery. And how this will help add personality to your business.  Plus, how you can stand out by being more thoughtful about the artwork you use alongside your content.  Why daily drawing can help you develop your skills and make you considerate of how you can apply this to your business.  Why content repurposing took the stress out of content creating for Amy and resulted in better work.  The emotional and energy ties you have to your work and why constant creating can be draining.  “No one wants to turn up in the same dress to the party. Hand drawn stuff can do that for your content.”  Get the Actually Useful Podcast Notes here Check out VA Ink Follow Amy LinkedIn And on Instagram   Get the Brew Time newsletter right here

Scroll-stopping content with Amy Nolan

Ginger Rainbow

Today I’m talking to the wonderful Amy Nolan from Ginger Rainbow. Amy is a creative business owner who produces her colouring in gifts, cards and illustrations from her married quarters in Gloucestershire. Inspired by military life her colouring in pillow cases sprung from an idea she had whilst her husband was deployed to Afghanistan. Since then the idea has grown into a fully-fledged business, and more recently she has created the Wings Doodle Boxes with the Royal Air Forces Association and her cards have even been published by a national greetings card company. This episode is full of handy business tips and inspiration. She’s a brilliant creative with enough energy to bottle and I am so proud to say that she is also a very great friend. I hope you really enjoy this episode with my fab pal Amy. Don't forget to subscribe, write a review, watch the new YouTube Vlog series, and head over to www.theindependentspouse.co.uk to see how it can help your 'magnolia wall life' business.
