This font is based on 19th-century handwriting from an archival source...it looks awesome! All of their script fonts look awesome, in fact, but this is my favorite.  Now if I can only think of something I would use it for, so I have an excuse to buy it...

No, I am NOT reacting inappropriately; that font is LUSCIOUS.

That *is* an awesome font. Also, thank you for reminding me that the world contains such things as awesome fonts. *beams at you*

IIRC, that's based on T. J. Rusk's hand.

And Harper totally stole it to use in Discworld books, when they needed a handwriting font.

Apparently the designer had access to a letter of Rusk's for a reference source. Very cool.
