Just wanted to ask a few questions—
How many of you have scripts?
How many of you use diacriticals as vowels in your scripts?
How many of you have null letters (letters that don't represent a
sound)
to deal with the problem of diphthongs / multiple vowels per
consonant?

I have a script. It's an alphabet with written vowels that do not
differ as a whole graphically from consonants. I don't have null
letters either; the only spectacular thing about it (other than being
a reflection of what I think is a nice looking script) is the large
amount of digraphs that represent syllables Vs, Vr, Vn, Vt, however,
some common diphthongs have digraphs. So, things written in it tend
to be pleasantly short.
