I think I did all right as far as using proverbs. Thing is, I sort of wove them into the dialogue without giving them the weight they deserved. They came off as clever quips or perhaps lines of poetry but without much in the way of real depth. Sometimes that was deliberate, as a given character was unaware of proverbs being used, and other times I think I was too busy doing what I do best - dialogue - and not giving ancient wisdom the respect it deserves.
I missed out on a few days due to sheer exhaustion, and right now I think I'm learning about my writing weaknesses more than anything, but so far I'm surviving. Here's to doing better next week.
