What Size Font?

I'm writing a book, and I'm not sure what font or font size to choose.  Size 12 is too big.  Do you think size 9 is a bit small?  Should I choose size 10?

Size 10 is good. BTW, what are the border sizes and what is the story about? I'd gladly do cover art, if you don't have any already.  smile

Re: What Size Font?

10 would probably be great, if you are using Microsoft Word.

Re: What Size Font?

10 is probably good for a book.

I use 12 when I'm in Word or Pages, though.
