For the Blogging from A to Z Challenge, I’m having Fun with Fonts. Each day I’ll feature a few I like based on either the look of the font or its name. I’ll also pick a font to inspire one of my tweet tales. 

I get a kick out of handwriting fonts because they seem to go against the very nature of fonts. Handwriting is supposed to be a personal and unique thing – with experts able to identify who wrote a sample and other specialists claiming they can describe someone’s personality through his/her handwriting because of the variations. But the purpose of a font is to make all the letters look the same, so it’s like the very opposite of handwriting. But there are still a ton of handwriting fonts out there, from the messy to the elegant. I especially like this Jane Austen one. I have no idea if it looks anything like her actual handwriting, but I can totally picture the original manuscript of Pride and Prejudice written in this. If I type my novels in this font, I wonder if I’ll have the same success?
