Thursday afternoon
Dear Alex,
I left the book by the window. There is a note on page twenty-three that I thought you would like. Bring it along on Thursday; we can finish the conversation over coffee.
See you there.

Licorice was drawn in 2004, going by its copyright line, and waited 17 years for Google Fonts, arriving in November 2021. Robert Leuschke of TypeSETit made it as a light-hearted script for scrapbook pages, greeting cards, invitations and parties.
2 things decide how you use it. The capitals tower over a small lowercase, and the letters are packed very narrow, so a long name fits on a place card without shrinking.
At small sizes that low lowercase closes up. Start around 28 px, give it a name or a 2-word heading, and do not ask it for a paragraph.
1 Regular, 586 characters, Western and Central European Latin plus Vietnamese.
