Prelude to Midterm Portfolio

I am constantly trying to better myself in any way possible, be it in character or skills. I understand that improvement only comes as a result of time and effort. In efforts to further my growth as a writer, I have revised and reflected upon three pieces I have written in the last month, which you can find below. Since I seem to have difficulty delving into details about my personal experiences and thoughts when I am all too concerned with my unfamiliar with my audience, or when I am acutely aware of an academic setting, rectifying my dissociation with my writing is my main focus in my revisions.
