Critics Review

This is a perfect guide to navigating the ever-complex and wondrous world of the creative arts, packed with practical and insightful information that will help individuals at any stage of their journey!—?Nahre Sol - Pianist / Composer / CreatorVery few people turn me into a bumbling fan boy faster than Andrew Huang. I get stupidly excited every time he releases a YouTube video. This book is an insightful, candid peek into his thinking and creative process, a must read for anyone trying to turn their art into a living. —Jad Abumrad - Musician / Composer / Creator of Radiolab, More Perfect and Dolly Parton’s America “There are single sentences in this book that took me 10 years to learn on my own. If you’re looking for motivation, you’ve found it. I wish I had this book when I was starting out.” —Chuck Sutton, artist and music producer“Andrew Huang is a creative force of nature. He’s a living prototype for the current and next generations of content creators and musicians. Make Your Own Rules, much like his music, is filled with deeply relatable and hooky story telling with a message. Wise, thoughtful, normally heavily obscured information is shared here about creative process and monetization in a modern context. This should be required reading for music students and anyone trying to move from hobbiest to full time creator. Absolutely Inspiring, I loved it.” - BT, Electronic Artist, Film composer, and Software Developer“A book as remarkable and multifaceted as its author, Make Your Own Rules is revealing, inspiring, encouraging and deeply informative. Any creative person of the Digital Age — whether they’re familiar with Huang’s wildly creative online work or not — will benefit from this deep dive into his impressive journey thus far.” -JJ Abrams, Writer/Producer/Director“Andrew has done what I thought was impossible—he has managed to take a field that is rapidly changing and create a book that is timeless in its usefulness and relevance to any artist that wants to share their work in the digital age. If there was a course in content creation this would be required reading.” - Malinda Kathleen Reese, musician and creator
