...my handwriting font

A while ago I made my handwriting into a font and posted about it.
I have received quite a few emails since then people who are contemplating paying money to get their handwriting turned into a font and wanted a review. Here is my two cents:

My handwriting was turned into a font when I won a contest. Allie said that the first two people to get the handwriting paper emailed back to her would have it turned font for free! I was so exciting! I scribbled the alphabet as quickly as I could, took a picture and sent it to her. If you were to get yours done, I would recommend taking a little more time to make sure your handwriting isn't sloppy like mine was. :)

My normal handwriting is semi hard to read because I have my own mesh of cursive/print/laziness. (See image of my handwriting above...) All of my letter connect. It is a fast way to write. A fabulous font designer can make fonts that connect and flow beautifully. You will probably get what you pay for if you have handwriting like mine. (Although...Allie did a marvelous job with the sloppy scribbled on paper I gave her!)

Good luck with all your font ventures! Send me links to your fonts if any of you end up having yours made!

  1. Your handwriting is great. Mine on the other hand - I'd be scared to see it in font.

  3. But I love that the font looks like your handwriting - I think you would only get that if you wrote how you normally do.
