Don't beat yourself up over it, I dropped it that night.

I'm sure I could put more time into pushing boundaries but I can't do things that will soak up ink. I'm also focusing on keeping a magazine that's so full of different things still looking uniform. I've only worked on two so far, the up-coming will be my third :) So, I've managed to work out a few of the kinks I suffer with, and will keep trying to polish it.

I avoid going crazy with fonts. While they're expressive, with a zine that's mostly about reading stories, I have to keep it legible, and I want it to stay uniform.

I have adobe, and several fonts I've downloaded for personal use, but still, restraint tends to be best in a lot of cases. It'd be too busy, broken up, and just plain hard to deal with if there were too many fonts, especially when we have the money to send it to a printing house- they don't want to deal with receiving and loading all the fonts either. been there with a different magazine!

I think that's the book I got in college, but the professor never had us read any of it. :-/ I use it for the grid every now and then, plus it has a great page for font size!
