Writing Samples

Do people even read this shit? My eyes glaze over reading my own memos/briefs...
Do not send writing samples. Do you have your name on any published decisions (other than Ill. State Bar ethics opinions)? That might lend some credibilty, but I wouldn't even bring that, just list them on the resume.

And don't listen to Shapey and admit you post here, or if you go that route claim to be someone with 200- 300 posts. No one in theri right minds would hire the type of malingerers who are sporting 1000+.
