The below is said in all seriousness, but with my tongue planted firmly in my cheek. Meaning, I do believe in what I've written, but sometimes the boss doesn't.
--
If we are designers, and our job is to create identities for our clients that are to be unique and original, creating for them a strong presence in the marketplace in which they sell,which in turn will help them become profitable, doesn't it behoove us to have a greater variety of typefaces at our fingertips?

Also, you can always build the price (or part of it) of the typeface into the cost of the work for which it was used.

Maiandra GD is included in Microsoft's Publisher program. It is a TTF and anybody with the Publisher program will have it. I could email it to you. Let me know. eckswhyzee@aol.com

StormType's "Clichee" isn't much cheaper ($34 USD), but for that price you get the same "feel" as Maiandria and the flexibility of 4 styles:

Maiandra is based on Oz Cooper's lettering.

Here are links to other Ozzie fonts. I doubt you have access
to any of these, but maybe it's time to buy! I'll post later to
recommend some of the more economical picks.
