In reply to Sarah Wagner. Yes! Where are the Fantasy fonts?? One of the top genres! How about Magical Realism? (A fascinating genre re: Book Cover creation).

A lot of the reccommended fonts, at least in the sci-fi section, are based on fonts used for movies and games, and probably would not be a good idea to use.

The trouble with fonts is that you can easily get lost in a sea of them, and lose a few hours exploring and testing them out. I recently discovered Aviner — I love all the different variations – black, bold, book, medium, light etc. available so you can mix and match the styles for the different elements.

I adore this posting. Superbly interesting and relevant. Well done Stephanie Sharlow! I have just republished one (21 to go) of my books as I move from CreateSpace to another place. I perceive book 1 is really a Melodrama in 3 Acts based on a ‘real’ Biblical story that seems fictional and circus like. I pondered the font on my Mac and decided on Bebas Neuv Book. I then made the font more circus like by using Photoshop styles ‘Rainbow’ and Star Glow. I used variants of this font for Tag and Author name.
