From the bottom of my heart. Thank you!
I’m finally back at my desk in New York City—my brand new desk actually. As if preparing for WPPI wasn’t enough, we moved offices while we were in Las Vegas to 85 Broad street, the old Goldman Sachs building.

I AM ALIVE.
Sue Bryce. My gosh, what can I say about her without sounding like I’m a gushing teenager? Sorry, I can’t! Two years ago we had lunch together when she was visiting NYC.

When a conference works.
I had a chance to catch up on Seth Godin’s blog last night – sometimes he just nails it. If there’s anyone I’ve been reading lately who has such great insight (for me) it’s Seth. He understands the creative world, and has such a great perspective. I’ve also never known anyone who was able to… Continue reading »
