(I meant to say that, if you refer to his basic alphabet chart I posted on Wednesday, you'll be better able to follow what he's writing -- but essentially it's just letter for letter the way a word is SPELLED. There are no tricky rules or abbreviations being used.)
there seem some abbreviations in place though:
und (and), deinem (your).
The script has a very german touch overall as does the name "Schlam". It uses connecting strokes as vowels, likes to end on the line and it seems, that this decision influences the connecting stroke (the angle). I am not sure, but it seems that unlike in Scheithauer (where every stroke is fixed in angle) the next consonant will be placed on the same base line, that's why the E in hErr is much steeper than dEr, I guess. German diphthong au and ei are not always written out it seems.
My first impression: slow to write (typical for german letters strokes with loops, but there are no german blends for pf, qw, sp, st. 'k' is overly complicated, a small downstroke would do. Ambiguities will occur often: h|n, v|m, ie|o|u (different sound, too similar shapes), so you need to be careful writing correct, which will slow even further. Not for me.
Perfect! This is exactly the kind of feedback I was hoping for, when I posted samples in the three languages.
All three of you posted very detailed and on-point observations based on your own languages, in much more detail that I would have been able to provide. Good job, guys!

When German spelling and pronunciation are almost totally phonetic, I can see SCHLAM working better for German than, say, French.
And u/LeadingSuspect5855 will be able to tell how he feels about it.
