Jan 7, 2017 at 16:27 | comment | added | aparente001 | Whenever I start thinking about a second font, I get all tied up in knots. I read, and I think I agree, that one should avoid sans serif in a print book; on the other hand, I don't know, maybe most of my readers will be reading on a screen.... I have no idea! If I imagine two serif fonts, I am afraid that if they're different enough so as to be obviously two different voices, then one of them would be ugly or inappropriate in some other way. I wonder if playing with paragraph indentation and line spacing would help make it clear? | |

Jan 7, 2017 at 16:22 | comment | added | aparente001 | I can see that this would work, but I wonder if I could use a symbol instead? This feels too in-your-face for me. I was also wondering if a different font maybe? | |
