So for Typography II, we'll be making a font. We'll use magic to put it on computers and everything! Which, you know, emotionally, societally, is kind of a hassle, a huge responsibility. What kind of fonts does this world even need anymore. I think the only avenue still left to explore is fonts for scrapbookers to use, things with a candy cane or leaf or kitty on top of every letter. Most of my class seems to be going after some kind of silly scribbles, fonts with zazzy personalities. But I am taking this so seriously, you guys! I want to make something that could, at the very least, be used for a web 2.0 logo.

Please won't you review these samples, and write in with your comments? What kind of font do you want to see more of, dear reader?

I'm Casey Hall. I work in a strange office by day, operate Portland's most mysterious food cart by night. Kingsquid is a collection of written and visual ephemera. It is a place for magic, occuring and observed.

Forever for hire or friendships, I can be reached through inquiries at kingsquid dot com. Also I got a twitters and a flickr.
