I don't suppose anyone here is overly familiar with Adobe Fonts licensing, but here goes 😅
Is it permitted within the license to send photoshop files with active fonts to clients who have commissioned work from you?

Heads up, people of the internet: This isn't me. I don't have a TikTok account. This person is apparently messaging people over there, but this person, again: not me. Feel free to report the account, or whatever TikTok's version of that might be.

#WritingCommunity Anyone else *not* visualising what characters look like when you read/write? I can read a whole book, or write one, and if you asked me to draw a picture of the characters? Nope.

Say hypothetically I had like half a dozen of these little haunted stuff kits from Michael’s (grabbed when everything was +50% off); and while I enjoy coloring them I have no place to put them so… what if I gave them away to folks who provided proof of book purchase from a local indie?

My character: I will read all the books to know more about the origin and backstory of this mysterious object to understand better.
Me: reads 5 articles (that basically say the same thing) about recent UK policy.
In other news: apparently I *do* add bits of myself to characters.
