Typography isn't easy.

What you should have in mind is that to create an effective font, you have to work around a concept/formula which each letter follows.
I think your current issue is that your word doesn't look like a whole, as in, each letter may as well be from a different font, despite their similarities.
On the other hand, if you're going for something like graffiti writing, then yes, you're going in the right direction but it lacks dynamic force: think more about the composition of the letters, how they interact with each other as a whole, which letter(s) you want to emphasize on, and the message you want to convey, of course.

Here's a suggestion:

You may notice I gave all the small letters the same size (except the "l"), aligned them, tried to give a continuity to the shapes and thickness, some... regularity. Smile
Creating fonts/letters isn't my strong point, so I think it'd be a good idea for you to do some research on it. I hope I've been helpful.
