After writing exactly 2k a-z sentences, I’ve quit the Daily Pangram job.

The audience for a good pangram is very niche, but there are many type designers in it.
As many of you know, I started the Daily Pangram 7 years and 8 months ago. I have published an original pangram every weekday since.
I've just hit 2,000, and I think that's all I have in me. It's the end of a ridiculous era.

Congrats, Craig! I’ve enjoyed the ride. That pangram is the perfect way to end it. (BTW, your link to http://dailypangram.tumblr.com/ is broken.)0

Standing ovation! Your last one with the free jazz aerobic exercise is hilarious and my new favourite in the fonts preview. Thank you for that!
You should make a book with that collection, by the way.

It would be fun to have access to the original post announcing this on Typophile to share here. Craig you are crazy. 2000? That is something for the record books I'd think. Congratulations!2

I have been quietly enjoying your pangrams, too! Since I am learning sign painting, I recently used one for some lettering practice (I am aware that my spacing of “TOM PETTY” sucks … more practice required).
