Oh, go on.


(No, seriously, go on.)


Nice things people have said about me and/or my work.

Mightier Than

In which a UK-based blog about copywriting was kind enough to interview me (and refer to me as a "ledge," which is British for "legend," which I had to look up.) It's a good way to get to know me.

I Believe In Stephen Vogt

ESPN's Jerry Crasnick gives some love to our work for the Oakland A's. Especially the breakfast-themed parts, which makes total sense to me.

Moonshot

A few words I put up on LinkedIn to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the greatest ad I've ever seen.

A Girl Named Maria

PopIcon.com was nice enough to ask me my opinions of some holiday ads, which was all the excuse I needed to share my love of Maria Bamford.

I would totally drive her to the airport.

Wayback Machine

In which I exchange love notes with the San Francisco Chronicle's Pulitzer-Prize winning columnist, Herb Caen. (Second paragraph.) He didn't actually let me write his annual Christmas poem, but Macy's did. (Mine was better.)

Goal to go

A few nice words about the 49ers/Levi's Stadium campaign, courtesy of Little Black Book.

On The Town

The peerless Susan Slusser praises the A's "Rooted In Oakland" -campaign, which would be great if the whole moving-to-Vegas -thing hadn't made it more awkward than one of Stomper's pickup lines.
