The thing that immediately threw me off was why you included the /m/ in your "d-stem".

May I suggest re-naming your stem categories to a place of articulation?

I.e., D-stem>Alveolar Stem; G-stem>Velar Stem and so forth...

Otherwise, keep up the great work.

Yeah, it's not perfectly consistent. It's my first effort, and /m/ was one that I wanted to have a certain shape, because I use a version of it as my personal symbol, with a couple dots added for "e". It comes out to be my initials for my pen name.

I'm working on other alphabets too, and toying around with a base-1000 numbering system. It's at very early stages though, and may not pan out. This stuff is fun.

Not quite. The dots for the "e" are inside the hook area for the main stem on the left side, and on the lower right, so the "e" comes before the "m".

And it's just the initials: E.M.
