Jonathan Lethem, author, You Don't Love Me Yet: A Novel
I dislike the temptation of making a raw draft look like it's already typeset. Before computers, I wrote three novels on a typewriter, and there can never be anything but 12-point Courier (double-spaced) forever: I write on an eternal Selectric of the mind. I can even hear the rattle of the metal ball against the sheet of paper, I swear.

Ditto. What's the point of anything else, at least when I'm generating a manuscript? Although the labels on the folders of my GTD reference files at the day job are all typeset in Trebuchet MS.
