So I know this will sound crazy ... but I've never really had to have a portfolio, in the conventional sense, but a current offer is asking for one. What's the best way to build one out? Thanks!

My first book was on Carbonmade, which is super easy. Just drop in your images and you’re done. Cargo Collective was really easy as well.

I built my current site on Squarespace. They have a lot of templates and you can do a lot more to personalize your site than you can on Carbonmade and Cargo Collective. Wix is out there too.

I see this question about how to display side projects often, so putting this out there for anyone who might find it useful:

There’s no such thing as side projects, in my eyes. Every project is an opportunity to display your creativity, and the few you’re most proud of make it to your book. Generally, the consensus these days is that we want our advertising to not look/feel like advertising. So, why should you be concerned to separate what was and wasn’t “advertising?”
