How can improve my play even more? I feel that I have begun to plateau around 1300. Many of the games I have been winning recently are due to a capitalized blunder, however when there are no obvious mistakes to take advantage of I tend to struggle. I try to develop my position, however I feel that I eventually lose the advantage and ultimately the game. I have attached a game recently played, where I felt that I gained the early the advantage both through content and position but failed to keep my lead and eventually dropped pieces and lost on time (even without the timer I would still have lost due to the upcoming pawn promotion).
Going back to my question, how can I improve and where do I start looking. Feel free to look at some of my other games (Mostly play rapid and blitz).
In a 10 minute game, you should have had enough time to see some of the hanging pieces.
Why didn't you move your knight after 25..a4? You were up a piece.
The computer reports 6 inaccuracies, 7 mistakes and 5 blunders. Cut out half of those and your rating will rise.
