Comment swap!
I was really excited to get a walking dead fic and I think you did it justice! I loved how you opened up your story with some background. It really helps the readers get to know the character that you are writing about. I love the description, as well. I think you do a great job of keeping everything flow nice, rather than chopped up by dialogue constantly (something I see often when I am reading stories on this website).
One criticism I do have, however, is the big paragraphs. I don't have a problem with them, as long as the paragraph pertains to the same subject. Some of the lengthier ones definitely can break up at some points and be their own shorter paragraphs. It'll help readers know when there is a change. For instance, I was confused in the flashbacks about the boots because it started to feel like it was present day because of the lengthier sections.
Oh, one more thing. Make sure you capitalize your "I's" and give the apostrophe in "I'll."
But that's all I have to comment on! Other than that, great story so far!
