New family members: Kwersity and RummageSale

When I created RummageSale, I named it RummageSaleOne because I thought I might do a similar, second font of letters in a variety of styles. It took over twenty years, but there now is a RummageSale-Two. As a result, people creating lettering with mismatched type have four alternatives for each letter. In the sample below, the first two of each letter are from the original RummageSale and the second two are from the new RummageSale font.
A second family adding members is Kwersity. It had four members, Kwersity, Kwersity-Bold, KwersityWider, and KwersityWider-Bold. These have been renamed to Kwersity-Regular, Kwersity-SemiBold, Kwersity-Wide, and Kwersity-SemiBold-Wide. New bolds were constructed for both the narrower and wider styles and a shadow style was created based on Kwersity-SemiBold. The SemiBold style can be layered on top of the shadowed style to create bi-colored lettering.
Corrections and additional characters (especially the accented characters used in Eastern European languages) have been added to Handmade Font, DearJohn, Barefoot, Crippled Font, and ShirlyUJest.
