Insulted by the onslaught of fluffy spring break movies? Bored by what adults think makes great “teen literature”? Good—then you’re on the right track. The next step is to take matters into your own hands.
A fun and comprehensive guide for young women, Indie Girl contains all of the information you’ll need to start independent creative ventures, like dance companies, rock bands, art galleries, fashion companies, and more. Inside you’ll find out how to shoot a new TV show, make your own zine, and even build a float for a parade. You’ll also read quotes from teen and professional artists, receive technical and creative advice from pros, and get a better understanding of why and how women should be working together in the arts.
