I'm using Bookman Old Style for my current 11+ story, but Garamond for the YA m/s. For submissions, however, it's Times New Roman every time: professional looking on screen, and prints well on A4. There was an interesting New Scientist article last year about the way we read serif and sans-serif fonts. Apparently, the twirls of serif force us to pay closer attention. They take longer to read, but as a result we retain more of the information.Rowena Househttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11548957772863528477noreply@blogger.com
