Surprise Surprise.

Yes, it's really me.

And yes, I'm listening to Billy Idol. It's sad, I know.

I've been toying with the idea for some time now of using DA as an online portfolio of sorts.

Yes, there are plenty of other sites that are more geared towards writers and such, but I'm simply too lazy to set anything up there... And I don't really have the time, either, to be honest.

Some of you may already know this, but posting unpublished work on a website such as DA renders your work "published" by most editors. Therefore I unfortunately am unable and unwilling to post work that has not yet been published...

My published works thus far contain very few short stories, one poem that sucks so badly (and not in a good way, either) that I've vowed to NEVER show it to ANYONE, one or two editorials, as well as book reviews and commercial features that I've written for our local newspapers.

So my question is this:

As much of the work is "boring", comissioned work, would anyone still be keen to read it?

And... Would DA work as an online portfolio?

As you know, I've been away for some time now and have absolutely no idea how things work around here anymore... Although I'm sure that I should be entitled to submit published works as long as it's legal for me to do so...

Sooo...
