Looks pretty good to me so far, but I'm sure others with more authority in inspecting the curves will have more to say about that than I.
The internal up-hooks in the h, k, m, and n are pretty distracting to me, as they interrupt the flow of what one expects to see as a single stroke. Likewise with the top loops on b, d, h, k, and l, though it seems more of a stylistic decision than the afforementioned up-hooks. At least by the way I learned cursive, the connecting stroke from the b should come from the top, similar to the o and v, so this one looks a bit off to me.
Are your connecting strokes attached before or after the letters?
I think the 'h', 'k', 'm', and 'n' don't need the little hooks on their first strokes. Rounding them (like the top of 'u') might look better.
If you're really worried about the 'b' not connecting, you could try making it look like your 'v' with an ascender.
Overall, this is a really fun and tasty script. I like the direction you're taking with the caps 'A' as well.

Hey chillypepper!
Good work!
Thers's go my humble opinion:
I believe that there are some forms that do not get along between them, if one watches the system as a whole.
The stroke modulations and its relation with a pen are strange in "A".
There are thickenings and refinings where it must not have them (c,g,z,x, etc). Counterforms are unbalanced in some letters (f,z).
The final strokes (that small hook) of (h,k,m,n) I would make them subtler.
And finally, it seems to me that the "x" and "z" deserves a redesign. "z" looks like it has a big head and "x" seems not to be part of this group.
Sorry about my english, hope I has been clear...
Best regards!
