Portfolio revision plans

Considering how much time has passed since we wrote the News Brief and the Interview/Profile, it makes the most sense to me to revise those two. After not thinking about them for a while, I plan to return to them with my "editor hat" on, so to speak — I'm not attached to the words I wrote because I don't really remember them precisely, so I can go in there objectively and change a bunch of stuff.

The News Brief revision will most likely involve re-ordering the information in there and highlighting the most interesting "newsy" things in it, as well as tweaking the wording to be more precise and/or interesting.

The Profile revision should be interesting, because after writing my initial draft and receiving feedback from my peers I re-wrote the entire thing. But even after that, it's not that great. I struggled writing it because I didn't feel I had the authority to write such a thing after a half-hour conversation in which I probably asked the wrong questions and looked like an idiot, so basically I'm lacking confidence in it. That's why I think my "editor hat" will be especially helpful when I revise it, because I can work with what's there and more objectively decide what's missing or how to best present the stuff I do know.
