Font Conference

A fun YouTube video Sharon Shinn pointed to on Facebook:

This is funny, and I will just add that I am much, much less into fonts than (apparently) almost everyone. That’s why I like Times New Roman. It just looks normal and non-fancy and straightforward. I like Garamond too, and why? Because it looks basically normal and non-fancy and straightforward.

I don’t much like sans serif fonts and particularly dislike Calibri, BUT, I must admit, I have my Kindle app on my phone set to a sans serif font because it honestly is easier to read without picking up my reading glasses. So I see why some people like sans serif fonts. I just think they’re unattractive compared to any normal serif font.

I bet a lot of you have a much stronger opinion about the best fonts and the worst fonts than I do. But I agree with everyone (apparently) that Jokerman is awful. I hadn’t heard of it until this Facebook thread.
