@taylorclogston All right, I’ll read it through and give you some feedback as soon as I can! Is there anything in particular you’re looking for? For example, anything no one has commented on yet? (I know you weren’t looking for mechanical things, but I wondered if you had any specific questions.)
I haven’t had the watch for long, so I can’t give a weekly average, but I think my daily average is around 7K. I had been doing more every day until I got over 10K yesterday, but I slacked off today. *glances guiltily at the lame count of 4,300* It’s good that your job allows for that much movement! Schoolwork unfortunately confines me to a desk, so I have to intentionally go for a walk in order to get more than a couple thousand a day.
Well, part of the problem is that I’ve changed major details about him so many times that it has been difficult to pin down his character in general. The second part of the problem is that he’s a logic-brained man in his 30’s, whereas I am an art-brained girl in my teens. xD So, I’ve had trouble staying in his voice without slipping back into my own. He’s definitely the most difficult protagonist I’ve ever had. My others all developed quite naturally and I really know them, but I don’t feel like I know him well at all.
I’m with you there. I rarely stick to my goals. That’s what community accountability is for. 😉
