I agree with you that a portfolio site is not necessary. I’m a full-time writer and editor and I get so many new or aspiring writers asking me what they should use for a portfolio, but they DON’T NEED ONE.

Thanks for writing this piece. It ties in really well to a conversation I had with a friend and colleague a long time ago. He said that being a self-employed consultant or freelancer was code for being under-employed.
