...Yes! Steal it--I'd love to see your answers. <br />They're plenty of gorgeous fancy fonts out there, but I type all my drafts in Times New Roman, so it always looks familiar and sort of comforting to me. Kind of weird, but that's why I love it.

I think that A is a great letter of the alphabet, but I admit to having some love for H myself. :) I think that Times New Roman is good, too, and I also like the Artemis Fowl font because it is lovely. :) <br /><br />Also, mountains, mountains, mountains. Anyway.

I think we've already established how good I am with pronunciation. :) <br />Honestly, I'd rather have people think I'm understandable and concise than especially smart.

IDK IS IT "KAL-OR-MEN" OR "KALE-OR-MEN"??) xD <i>"Any long, complicated word used in place of a shorter, simpler word."</i> <<< YUSSSSS. I AM IN SUCH AGREEMENT WITH YOU THO. It just bothers me when (especially writers but people in general) use big words instead of normal ones. it's like, "who are you trying to convince of your intelligence??" #burn XD<br /><br />THIS IS FABULOUS THANK YOU FOR DOING THE TAG!! <3<br /><a href="http://www.abbieemusicblog.com/" rel="nofollow">abbiee</a>Abbieehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08315835789865447678noreply@blogger.com
