Fonts, Fonts Galore
Hi, folks!
Today I’ll be doing something a bit different :) I’m going to ask a few
questions, a writer to any writers out there :D
Who here writes on the computer? I do! I love the feeling of the keyboard
beneath my fingers, I love seeing the words form on my screen in front
of me. I love the look of FONTS!
Who here loves fonts? I do!
My favorite fonts are EB Garamond, Arial, Cambria, Georgia, Sorts
Mill Goudy, Frank Ruhl Libre, Palatino, and Book Antique.
Oops, that’s a lot, isn’t it? *chuckles - he, he*
As a writer, I am always looking for more fonts. I know that some of you can
relate *grins*
What fonts do you love to write with? Is it Arial, simple but fun? Or is it more
elegant, like EB Garamond? Or is it simple but appealing like Palatino
or Book Antique?
What are your favorite fonts?

Oh, one more thing. Do any of you feel like if you don’t have the right font,
you can’t seem to write?
you can’t seem to write?

I write and the progress of my latest novels)

I love typing in different fonts too! I usually use Times New Roman, but I like Bradley Hand ITC, Freestyle Script, and Edwardian Script ITC:D
ReplyDeleteOh, those are fantastic fonts, Patience! I'll have to look into them :D
DeleteWhat do you use to write with, Patience? I usually use Google Docs, but if Google Docs isn't available, I sometimes use Word (I don't like to, though, as I prefer Docs) I know lots of people who use Word, though, and I used to use it 24/7. Do you? Or do you use Google? Or something else? *winks* *squeaks at how many questions I've given you :P :D*
DeleteHi Izzy! I usually use Word, but the computer I use is SUPER old, so the Word is set up differently than some other Words I've used:D
Delete-Patience
Oh, cool! Yeah, I love Word in some ways because sometimes it has better fonts than Google Docs. Yeah, that's the bummer about Google Docs. *face falls* it has fonts, but not GREAT ones waaaaa!
DeleteYeah, I like being able to have a variety of fonts too:-) But I normally go with a simple font.
DeleteSame 😊
Delete*raises hand* yes, I write on a computer!!! And I love finding fonts! I think I write best with Arial... (it's hard to keep track of all the names!)
ReplyDelete-Brooklyne
Yes! *gives you a high five* Arial is an AMAZING font to write with....;) :P
DeleteI like lucida console, arial, freestyle script, and some more fonts, but I usually use Calibri. I mostly use fonts that are neat looking.
ReplyDelete-Cami :)
Those sound great! I'm guessing you use Word, as well, to write? Freestyle Script is a Word font, and Google Docs doesn't have it *pouts*
DeleteMy favorite fonts: Times New Roman, Frank Ruhl Libre, Cambria, Unkempt, Love Ya Like a Sister, Cedarville Cursive, Berkshire Swash, Give You Glory, Dawning of a New Day, Goudy Bookletter 1911, EB Garamond, Gloria Hallelujah, Homemade Apple, Jim Nightshade, Bitter, La Belle Aurore, Alice, Cardo, Century Schoolbook, Verdana, Rye, Satisfy...
ReplyDeleteAnd I should probably stop now.
Till then! - Scarlett
*laughs and gives you a high-five* you go, girl! THAT (this would be italicized if commenting let me) is how I roll *winks*
DeleteWhat. A. Fun. Post!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI love computers and I definitely LOVE fonts. I use a variety of different fonts (yes, the font inspires even the story I'm typing. Not only that, but it also inspires the story I'm READING) And here's a funny fact about me: I could use just about any font, just so long as the "g" looks like this "g." I love to italic most of my work (it makes the font even prettier!) but if the look of my "g" changes when I do, I say, "Nope! Time for a different font!" (LOL) I forget the names of my fonts, but I know right off that Garamond and Georgia (even if the latter changes my "g". . . LOL) are two favorites, and I have fun with a series of "cursive-writing" fonts :-).
Thank you so much for posting!
I am JUST like you, Ellen! *gives you a high five* I love my "g" in only a certain way, so I usually only use EB Garamond or Georgia, or Cambria.
DeleteI enjoy posting so much, and I'm glad you've enjoyed this post!
