I’m in the midst of creating a font. It is definitely not going to be a full featured font as I don’t have time to make it that right from the start. It has serifs, based off something my wife and I designed…well at any rate I designed it and my wife provided feedback. I’m currently working on the E. I hope to be at Z sometime in the next 2 weeks. Right now its only capitals with no numbers or punctuation. I hope to add those in the near future. Font creation is time consuming but very rewarding. And a lot of people will probably ask “What font is it based off of?” None that I’m aware of – this is something scrawled out via pen and paper from my own hand and head. It might be subconsciously inspired by some font, but I don’t see it at the moment. I hope someday to create a font as refined and exquisite as Adobe’s Garamond by Robert Slimbach. And someday I hope to create something as wonderfully creative as Zapfino by Hermann Zapf
