Portfolio

My portfolio presents my work to readers in a way that I want them to understand my writing as well as get to know me as the author. I like to think that I have a unique style of writing and it was not until I made a portfolio that I could fully express my writing. Like I said earlier I want my readers to get to know who I am through my style of writing and my way of designing my portfolio. For example, I like to use expressions in my writing that I use in everyday conversations. I like to let my readers think I am talking to them. I also like to try and add little funny remarks to make the reader feel comfortable. 

When it comes to designing the portfolio I also have my own unique ways. I like to keep the colors simple and make the photos stand out. I am big into photography as well as music and like to express my writing through the two. Through Mac I can apply music to a photo, and most of my writing is pretty laid back, so I use laid back music. I like the reader to feel relaxed and ready to read what I have to say. I like them to feel like they don't have to read it, but I want them to want to read it. 

Having my paper online makes me feel important. I have always loved writing but never been too excited on it. Maybe because after the extreme type festival, all I do is print it out, wait for a grade and then never se it again. But, once I have my own website I always look at my pages and always want to improve it. Like I said I feel important and its cool. 

Having my own portfolio and my own website encourages me to be a better writer and present my ideas in a way that encourages people to want to read.
