I can’t count how many times I’ve been sent that Papyrus sketch by the people in my life. Thanks for sharing the link about the writer.

This was a great roundup!

The amount of times I have thought about font throughout my adult life. The appreciation I have for a good one and the rage I have for bad ones. There's probably something in there about the link between design and language, but for now, it's simply that I like me a good, clean font.

The sequel to that one, Urbanized, is solid as well!
