I’m happiest about MTIV. That one was written at a wonderful time in my design career. I had recently moved to NYC and started my company. Business was booming and I was discovering the NYC design community — which is supportive and generous and populated with my heroes. I was completely caught up in the craft. I was also relatively new to the wonders of New York. All of that found it’s way into the book and, to be honest, the only thing I remember about writing that one is getting up really early, walking to my office as the city woke up, drinking four shots of espresso, and writing like a fiend.
