    Posted: 05 August 2004 at 9:17pm

Well I'm writing a spy novel It will have no sex in it but it will have action, violence, murder etc. I want it to come out to be at least two hundred pages and I want it to be publishe so I was wondering what font should I use. What kind would I be taken more seriously by a publisher with as of right now I'm writing it in font size 11.
