By on February 14th, 2007

As a writer, do you keep an online portfolio? How did you set yours up (a custom site, a template site, a blog, etc.)?

    Absolutely. I work as a advertising copywriter, so I’ve got all my pieces on a personal website I designed myself.

    It’s very simple but clean, and it really exists to let other people look at my work and photos. So I tried to make that as easy and logical to do as possible.

    I think it is essential for today’s writer to have an online portfolio. It’s much easier than trying to send large docs via email, all you have to do is send them a URL.

    If you have a website it’s much easier to promote yourself, and more people will read your work as well.

    Here’s a link to my site if you want to check it out. (
