If you can download ebooks to your device, you need to back them up somewhere else in case Amazon or B&N decide to take them away. Back 'em up to a cloud service or your laptop/desktop. Then you can use Calibre to strip the DRM:

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Incidentally, my Fitbit counted 3757 steps while the Zombies, Run app on my phone came up with 4761. Hm.

Have you calibrated your Fitbit? (I haven't calibrated mine, but I know it's an option.)

Because books.

Maybe try Chris Crutcher's books?

Congratulations, ND! That's an awesome thing.

Hang in there, Sean!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I thought so, but now I'm not sure. I've calibrated a lot of things.

I have not set my stride length, but that should only affect distance and not steps, right?
