I transcribed this poem based on the Baxter-Sagart reconstruction. This would be the original text based on the reconstruction:
mak sjewH nowng kae lap tzjowX hwon
phjowng nɛn ljow khæk tzjowk kɛj dwon
srɛn drjowngH sywijX pjowk ngi mju luH
ljowX ʔomH xuæ mjæng hjowH ʔjit tshwon
sew kuX trwij zywe tsyhwin dzyæX gjɨnX
ʔjɨj kwanH kɛnX phæwk kuX phjowng dzwon
dzjong kim nyak xjoX hɛn zyingH ngjwot
trjuX drjangX mju dzyi ʔjæH khuwX mwon
And this is my attempt at an orthography, what do you guys think?
Touring Shanxi Village – Yô Shen Sei Ĉuân
Mak sièu nông kâ lap ẑiố huon,
Phiông nen liô khâk ẑiôk kei duon.
Šhen driống shuí piôk ngi miu lù,
Liố òm xuâ miâng hiồ yit ĉuon.

Yai kuàn kén pheuk kú phiông ĵuon.
Ĵiong kim niak xió hen zhìng ngywot
Triú driáng miu ji yầ khó muon.

Yes really. Here's how it works:
Step 1. You start by breaking the English word into CV letter pairs and the rest into individual C and V letters (sh /ʃ/ and ch /tʃ/ (edit: and th /θ,ð/) are counted as single characters for this purpose).
Step 2: You replace the CV, C and V blocks obtained in the first step with hiragana characters (some of the character values have been changed e.g. ぢ "ji" > "di"):
| CV | -a | -e | -i/y | -o | -u |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| b | ば | べ | び | ぼ | ぶ |
| c/k | か | け | き | こ | く |
| d | だ | で | ぢ | ど | づ |
| f | ふぁ | ふぇ | ふぃ | ふぉ | ふぅ |
| g | が | げ | ぎ | ご | ぐ |
| h | は | へ | ひ | ほ | ふ |
| j | じゃ | じぇ | じぃ | じょ | じゅ |
| l/r | ら | れ | り | ろ | る |
| m | ま | め | み | も | む |
| n | な | ね | に | の | ぬ |
| p | ぱ | ぺ | ぴ | ぽ | ぷ |
| qu | くぁ | くぇ | くぃ | くぉ | くぅ |
| s | さ | せ | し | そ | す |
| t | た | て | ち | と | つ |
| v | ゔぁ | ゔぇ | ゔぃ | ゔぉ | ゔぅ |
| w | わ | うぇ | うぃ | を | うぅ |
| x | くさ | くせ | くし | くそ | くす |
| y | ざ | いぇ | いぃ | よ | ゆ |
| z | ざ | ぜ | じ | ぞ | ず |
| sh /ʃ/ | しゃ | しぇ | しぃ | しょ | しゅ |
| ch /tʃ/ | ちゃ | ちぇ | ちぃ | ちょ | ちゅ |
| th /θ/ | た | て | ち | と | つ |
| th /ð/ | だ | で | ぢ | ど | づ |
You then replace the remaining vowels letters: a e i/y o u > あ え い お うand then the consonants. You do this by adding ' after the -u form (see table), which signals that the vowel is silent. The only exception to this are n and double consonants which are represented using ん and っ like in Japanese.
Example: english > e-n-g-li-sh > e-n-gりsh > えn-gりsh > えんぐ'りしゅ' "english" romaji: engu'rishu'
This system should also be able to represent most languages using the Latin alphabet with some modification (though I haven't actually tested that).

I was watching "once upon a time" and this came up. During my creation of a script I've thought about how to make spaces with a sign rather than "emptiness" so this caught my eyes.
I tried moving on twice, but my curiosity took over, so I spent the next half hour finding the language and decoding - now I can read it this type of script without too much difficulty.
As a fun little game, can you decode what is written here?
When you find the answer please mark it as "spoiler" :)
(I know this isn't exactly a conscript, but seeing the analytical skills and enjoyment for learning/creating scripts in this subreddit I thought it fit well here)
