Mid-term of a generation.
Does Trump and his style of politics continue? Do the people who support him feel some push back from the rest of us? It was an honor to help and support Abigail Spanberger as she challenged Dave Brat for Congress. Whatever happens today, you have won so many fans. Thank you. If the turnout is high, the turnover will happen. Let's go.

If you haven't been to https://www.sarahrowland.com/, you are missing out on the coolest hand-drawn wall coverings anywhere. Every design can take a room and turn it into a showcase. Blown away by this woman and her passion, joy and love for what she makes. Each paper exudes everything she is. Full disclosure: Sarah is my wife. The first photo is her signing her biggest deal yet with http://www.koroseal.com/. (That's her studio in our home.) The second photo is Sarah's feature in https://richmondmagazine.com
A lifeline when too many are taking their life.
An idea to help in face of the suicide epidemic in America. If it saves one life, it was worth doing. Thank you, Guy Kirkland, for the design.
Help for the helpless.
Alzheimer's. It's the worst possible fate and one we need to find a cure for. Soon. As more and more of us age, it's only going to grow more consequential. Here's a series of wild postings placed in context of other lost souls. Credit: Siberia, USA.
Karen and Jerry.
It was great to see this good news yesterday. Karen Costello was named CCO at The Martin Agency and Jerry Hoak was named ECD. I hired both of these amazing talents and when I left, elevated them to interim leaders of the creative department. Karen was really a tough one to convince to join six months ago, but after a long courtship, she jumped in with both feet and has been, since day one, a difference maker. Of course, being a female creative leader is the added bonus, but she earned this spot because she is a special talent. Human yet tough, driven but unselfish. Jerry has been at Martin a little longer and coming from Droga5, he brings that very unique POV and experience. Media-agnostic, impeccable design sense, unwavering in his believe in ideas. The agency is in good hands. Congrats, friends. Do good things.

What happened in Charlottesville this summer was a tragedy. This is one of the last projects to come through on my watch and it makes me proud. Thanks to a small team led by Karen Costello, Britta Dougherty, Mike Kelley and Rique Santiago, the effort turned a lot of hateful energy into a positive. Once again, Virginia is for lovers.
