Hi Brandon,
You have an excellent start! I will suggest a couple of areas to work on so as not to overwhelm you.
Your slant is spot on. I can tell you are taking your time and have worked at your consistency. I think you will find much satisfaction in working on your joins. They are a bit round. Try lifting your pen every time you come to the baseline. Then making the next stroke. For example, in the word, "matter," the connection from m to a to t should all be the same. Same for the entrance stroke to "life" and the connection between l and i. Can you see how they are ever so slightly different in your samples? Just this one thing will bring a nice improvement to your already pleasing letterforms.
Second, open up your top loop on f's, l's, and h's. They are a bit narrow. Moreso in the first and last samples and better in the middle one. Experiment with making them from the midpoint - up and over, versus starting at the top and coming down clockwise to the right. See which one you prefer and gives better results. At least initially, if you try starting at the top and come down, use a light hand and do not add a shade. Once comfortable with this method if you like it, you can then start adding a light shade.
Lastly, work on guidelines, whether behind your paper on a lightbox, or practice directly on a paper with printed guidelines. The latter is my first choice for practice as it really helps train the eye for consistency. The first two samples are nice and straight and then the last one is a bit wonky.
Overall, you have a very nice hand and with a few adjustments, you should be really pleased with your improvements.
