> I hand-lettered every single word in every illustration separately so that it would be as imperfect as it appeared. Good lord, I'm going to think about this every time I consider dedication to craft. Seriously, wow. That's impressive. I'm sorry this isn't more substantive of a comment, but I really wanted you to know how amazing that is (as you probably already do).
