Font Friday: Lauren Script

As a rule, I don’t like script fonts. They’re hard to read and not very useful to do the things I do. Even for formal invitations and the like, scriptyness and I just don’t get along.

I don’t like how the font scales down, or how it scales up. If I saw someone with handwriting like this, I’d think it was awesome. But this isn’t handwriting, it’s a typeface, and it just doesn’t work for me.

I have a good friend named Lauren, and I suppose if I ever had to make a poster for her, I’d look to this font first! I’d love to have a font named after me. “Kara” would be bold and stylish, would definitely not have extraneous serifs, and the K would have something cool and clever to differentiate it from all the other letters.
