It’s a funny thing, putting yourself out there. Wait, did I say “funny?” I meant “terrifying.” Throughout my life, I’ve been trying to find ways to put myself out there, but I’ve always been too afraid to really go for it. I’ve told myself time and time again that no one wants to

I really like how your portfolio works together, culminating in this feeling of finally being good enough. Then your champion entry fan letter is the perfect icing on the cake. Well done!

Wow, thank you so much! I tried to put a lot of thought into making this one big cohesive piece. I actually had everything put together and I had joeymichaels take a look at it before writing his champion entry, and when I first saw it I knew it was just the perfect way to end things! I'm glad you enjoyed it. :)

I love how all your entries for this really fit together, and this is such a great look into your life and who you are, and it just complements everything so well. I really do adore your humor - everything you write is so much fun to read, no matter how serious, and I would totally read whatever you may write in the future!

Thank you again! (I think I'm caught up now.)

I really wanted this to be kind of like one response to the topic, and the word "portfolio," well you know. It got me thinking about everything that's happened to me in the past few months and I thought this was a good response to that.

I'm glad you like my humor too; I'm always worried that people might not know when to take me seriously and when not to, haha. It's a fine line sometimes!
