I just don't understand why your evil twin was whining about it. I'll go over it in more detail today and we can work on coming up with a new assignment.

Okay, 'my evil twin's fears were justified at the time I was writing it.

1) The story was completely unsatisfying until I wrote the last quarter of it, which helped Charlie go from completely unlikeable to at least having learned a valuable lesson.

2) It developed a lot on editing, namely in flow of dialogue, and I actually had to cut about thirty words to meet the limit.

3) I truly did hit a wall that I've never hit before while writing this assignment. Every other Writer's block assignment kept the same vision, beginning to end, but this one required a significant change of direction right in the middle. When I started writing, I intended it to just be Charlie telling the story to God and defending his actions.
