You know, I honestly don't think it's speed so much as a totally different character setup -- I agree the flaw is still there, but I think it's because I'm utterly unused to writing ensemble casts. Whenever I write original fiction it's always one or two people at the forefront, usually in an isolated situation or with few friends. This group dynamic thing is new to me, and takes practice :D
I'm not sure if Non's blogging felt uncomfortable because Non was clearly trying to do some frantic damage control and panicking about potential threats to his own anonymity, or if that's your discomfort in writing Non showing through
I think the problem is that -- with my journal, I have a lot more freedom than Non does, because I know for a fact my boss doesn't read mine, whereas Non knows for a fact that his colleagues DO. So part of it is that he can't be too specific. But other people have said I need to work on these entries too, so. It's something to note for the fix-this file. :D
