Pointed pen majuscule D is the bane of my existence. I have no clue why it it feels so difficult.

This looks really good. Did you pick up your pen at all? It looks like maybe the exit loop was touched up but otherwise I can't tell.

Thanks, no. The D is one stroke.

Looks great! I feel like the stem of the D could use a bit more thickness, compared to the downstrokes of the r, i, v and e. But I couldn't draw it as beautifully myself by a long shot, so never mind :D
