Autumn is the shizz. S’all I’m saying. Here at the Haus of Franzen, September was all about crisp boundaries and clean sweeps. Replacing my to-do list with a stop doing list. Sharpening pencils. Feeling playful. Testing. Teasing. Tweaking. A whole … Continue reading

It’s been awhile since my last official pimping session. There’s a maelstrom of magnificence going on this week. Time for some piercing promotion. ♥ The Declaration of You Michelle Ward — my career coach-est with the mostest — has teamed … Continue reading

HAPPY BLOGOVERSARY (TO ME)!!! One year ago, in a delirious haze of Internet-induced enthusiasm, I launched Unicorns for Socialism. It began — like so many blogs do — as a place to gush about my favorite TV shows (South of … Continue reading
In LA for the week. Beach breezes + barbecues. Thinking deeply and sweetly about Big Things. Compassion. Legacy. Purpose. Cutting the snark, and pumping the smiles. Recently discovered the AW Conquerer font series, and it’s inspired a notable / quotable … Continue reading
Earlier this year, I started freelancing for d.trio — an award-winning marketing agency based in Minneapolis. I love the fact that d.trio is small and nimble, yet still wrangles big-league clients, like the Target Corporation, Wells Fargo and the American … Continue reading
