Tonight we had the second Type Seattle meet-up, with its somewhat more formal format than a simple pub gathering. (Not that there's anything wrong with those!) It's good to have a regular event for the local type community again, after the long Covid-induced lacuna.

Last week, we had another pub gathering of Seattle typographers, organized by Andrea Leksen and Aaron Bell. It's great to be getting together again, after such a long post-pandemic drought. Aaron has plans for a more formal regular event, too.

My personal ATypI history began in 1990, at Type90 in Oxford. I had just turned 40, but in this community I was a newcomer. On the last day, after the official close of the conference, a few of us got together in a local pub for a farewell pint.
