Writer’s Diary #44: Departure Mono

For the last few weeks, I’ve been drafting in Tinderbox my book Makeshift using the fantastic Departure Mono font. It is a monospaced pixel font, reminiscent of the fonts I used to learn to type on in the 1990s command-line interfaces and that graphical user interface of the Atari ST, which I learned to write on. It’s a glorious, free font. Kudos to its creator Helena Zhang.
