"Fontiness" is cute, but I think "fontness" is more elegant.
But my real reason for posting is to point out that most competitions will still accept entries by mail as well, so there's no reason for Jayne to change her practices. I assume, Jayne, that each submission is also on very different but widely available stock, that you purchase them separately and far from home so that nothing can be traced to you, and that you wear gloves during the entire creative (the mailing, that is) process.
I use a somewhat different approach. All my entries look the same, but I sign them all A.E. Stallings. Hasn't worked yet, but I have hopes for the future. (I wonder if Sam Gwynn would have a broader appeal?)
