wow I didn't expect this many comments ^_^ Hey Dajb I didn't expect to see you here. I really appreciate the comments and I think you're right about the text I'm going to try something simpler on the next page ^_^. I never save text layers to my original artwork in case I get published so that I can just redo them all to be the same.
I think the lettering itself is fine. The problem I suspect is the font. "Decorative" fonts like this one are cool for titles and very short exclamations but they can be difficult to read if there is a long stretch of text and/or if the font size is small. Despite the subject matter, I'd suggest you try a very ordinary, unfussy, simple font for the bulk of the text and save this one for "special" moments.
The artwork is great though, and the setting quirky and scary enough to keep us wanting more. Looking forward to it!

Very professional look I wonder if the gurgling stopped because someone jiggled the handle?
