He's an independent type designer. His site shows properly fleshed out respectable-looking typefaces for respectable-typography costs, but the Font Of The Month Club is the real joy. Whether you're looking for Victorian flavor, elegant text typefaces, design-forward display options, or the latest font feature noodling around (color fonts! color fonts!) there's a fine assortment here to be worth looking through. The Mini license costs are really nice as a reasonable impulse buy for the font-oriented and not too shocking a figure for the non-font-oriented.

I'm not at all a proper Font User -- my website's main typeface is a true abomination I keep only because an SVG filter to replicate the effect sounds hard to get right -- but I love imagining print projects that would merit Polliwog or Klooster Thin.
