Ah, script fonts—the fancy, curly-haired cousin of the font world. These fonts are like the divas of the design world, demanding attention and admiration wherever they go. They’re the fonts that say, “Why just write something when you can write it with style and pizzazz?”
Script fonts are like that friend who always wears high heels and red lipstick, even when going to the grocery store. They’re confident, glamorous, and always ready for their close-up.
They’re the fonts that make you feel like you’re writing with a quill pen on a piece of parchment, even if you’re just typing on a computer. They’re the fonts that transport you to a world of ballroom dancing, champagne toasts, and candlelit dinners.
