The creative industries are fast-paced, and competitive. While they are often exciting and exhilarating, it’s easy to find yourself working long hours, with little direction, and all-too-often, little pay. Bosses may be distracted and colleagues caught up in their own challenges, so it can feel there is no one to turn to with your problems and questions.

But now there is, via Creative Review’s own creative careers agony aunt, Anna Higgs.

Each month she will answer one creative or career-based problem, from questions sent in by our lovely readers. Her answers will appear as a column that will run both online and in our bi-monthly magazine.

Email askanna@centaurmedia.com with the subject header ‘Ask Anna’.

We look forward to hearing from you.
