Clipbook

I was talking to a friend last night about free lance fiction writing and he asked me which genre(s) I considered to be my strongest. I replied that I didn’t know for sure and that I intended to make this a year of stretching my wings. He said that was a pretty savvy idea and was similar to the concept of what journalists did. They developed a clipbook of works so that they could display their wares.

To that end I’m gonna make a list of what I’ve done to date and the genre(s) that I consider them to fall into and some key words.
