Earning without selling

Just before Christmas, I received a very nice cheque for £168. This came from an organisation called DACS who look after the interests of UK artists, illustrators and photographers.
If you are an artist or visual creator in the UK, you may qualify for a share of Payback royalties if your work has been published in books or magazines published in the UK or has been broadcast on certain UK television channels.

Payback royalties come from revenue generated through collective licensing schemes for example, when someone wishes to photocopy a page of a book which features your work.
To sign up for Payback, visit DACS
