I think how they react would be a product of who the characters actually are. I haven’t read many of the other comments so this may have already been noted, but I would try to develop the characters more. Thankfully, KP has planty of articles on that. 🙂

Focusing more on other things I spend time on. Though I would love to write my story, I think I am not going to focus on being a writer anymore. I don’t think it’s for me. 🙂
