I occasionally stalk my user retention page to see if anybody is currently reading.
I keep my progress set to chapter one.
Well, I thought I saw a different number than had been on chapter two, so I went to check if anybody was reading at the time.
Nobody was there, but when I went back to my user retention page, the number had changed.
I got excited thinking someone was reading it now, but realized it was because of my own progress changing.
I feel that, especially for smaller authors, the fact that we're registered as a reader can throw off our metrics.
Thank you for your consideration.
