My first tab...

I am trying to learn walking bass lines at the moment, and thought to myself "why not try and write your own!!" in a moment of stupidity... not only do I not have a clue when it comes to walking bass lines I also have never written my own bass line in my short time playing (9 months) so, here it is, the beggining (and most likely the end) of my walking bass line, please, tear it to shreads, tell me what I can do better and what is just simply terrible... or if it isn't too bad under the circumstances... Thanks :)
