As part of CreativeMornings’ fifth birthday, Debbie Millman gives five bits of her best advice.
1. Avoid compulsively making things worse.
2. Anything worthwhile takes a long time.
3. Finish what you start.
4. Failure is something that we should try to embrace.
5. Imagine immensities.
To celebrate the end of another fantastic CreativeMornings/NewYork year, we once again turned the mic to our audience. Our theme was MAKE, so we asked folks to speak about anything pertaining to making—what you make, why you make, or your philosophy around making.
Emily Fischer was one of of the speakers to take the stage, speaking on the sense of touch and how it extends into her work. Check it out. →

We’re pretty big fans of U2’s latest music video, Ordinary Love. The video was worked on by some fantastic folks like past CreativeMornings/NewYork speaker Oliver Jeffers and Mac Premo—our illustrator for next month’s theme!
Beyond that, the video was shot almost entirely at the Invisible Dog, a local gallery and art space here in Brooklyn. Boom.
Oliver Jeffers also spoke at our fifth birthday party, offering up this short bit of advice. →
