My digital portfolio says more about me than could be verbally dictated in an interview. The blacks and greys I have used are atheistically pleasing. I have a strong feminist standpoint with the imagery I have chosen for my site. However, if you analyze the picture you will see the struggle the women have as writers. I have struggled with writing as well. However, by pure visualization of my site that is not depicted. The organization and structure reflect the time I have spent on my site, and the personal pride I have taken in it. When you indulge yourself into the content, you realize further the time I have taken to produce the context, and content that makes my writing valid. I have completed every assignment, and put my whole heart into my work. Time is my enemy, as the content is reviewed, realization shows the magnitude of responsibility I have outside of the class room. Nonetheless, my thoughts have been produced on assigned work, and I have never documented a time of my life in such a way before. The process that Professor Mangini explained is now shown in my work. The once unorganized, topic hopping, writings I started with are now well organized and supported thoughts. Overall, my blog in combination with my major paper assignments show that I have put in work. My writing became very lengthy as I began to question more, receive the answers to the original questions, which then led to additional questions. I am very impressed with the pieces I produced during this semester. Even though I am pleased, my portfolio also shows that I still struggle with my reader’s attention. I had very limited number of comments if any on the majority of my blog posts. There were many times, it was mentioned to myself that my blogs were not being read by my classmates. This was great information to receive, as I know grabbing and keeping the reader’s attention is monumental in writing. This is still a work in progress for me. I have been asked, and even questioned myself as to if I will keep writing after this class is completed. I believe I will because I enjoyed the digital documenting of a time in my life where there was happiness, sadness, struggle and above all my life.
