The announcement on the GAS website has this to say:
Paul Stankard, internationally renowned glass artist, recently published his
third book, Studio Craft as Career, A Guide To Achieving Excellence In Art
Making

. Stankard crafted this verbal artistry with two distinct purposes in mind.
The first half of this superb resource offers readers a special insight into
Stankard's career, his personal journey that led him to find his niche and
allowed him to grow and reach his full potential as an artist. In the
second half, Stankard presents biographical career information and advice
from a broad cross section of well-respected artists, who, along with
Stankard, are important to the contemporary American craft landscape. The
outstanding photography selected by the author, serves to enhance and enrich
the words of experience and wisdom offered by the author.
Stankard wrote this book to be a provocative text filled with harsh
realities and dreams that fill the life and work of an artist. The book was
conceived to share personal experiences and offer direction for career
growth. Stankard thoroughly enjoys teaching and sharing his craft in his
role as the Artist in Residence and Lecturer at Salem Community College. He
inspires students to search for their individual creative spirits and reach
their full potential in life. This book reflects Stankard's passion for
teaching.
Stankard is also the author of No Green Berries or Leaves:
