Dear Reader,
Jeff here...Today, we're trying something different with the newsletter.
For the last two years, Hannah and I have been writing this weekly advice column for you and over 5,000 designers.
It's been a wild ride...from late-night cramming to early-morning writing sessions to beautiful feedback and encouragement that makes it all worth it.
This advice letter has been a weekly reminder for us to keep innovating, but the Fountain Institute is becoming more than just Hannah and I...
The community of designers around the Fountain Institute is our real value so we thought--it's time for our newsletter to grow with the community.
