Is my writing improving?

Maybe, probably not. Looking back on earlier works, I feel like I tend to include a lot of superfluous information and leave out things that might have been more important. Making a note here that maybe I should focus more on:
- detailed body design, so they transfer better to illustration.
- macroculture, as opposed to subcultures or current trends.
- relating sexuality back to the culture more.
- worldbuilding, so that each race is a bit more unique and relevant (some species felt like background one-offs and shouldn't have).
- environment, since that's pretty essential, yet has been either too vague or too familiar in most of these.
Each document hits a few of these in my opinion, but I'm not sure any of them have hit all five. I may rewrite most, if not all, of my previous documents and switch some things around for my next one.
