You say you've got writing skills. But while you're gearing up to become the next big thing in fiction, screenwriting or journalism you probably want to eat and pay some bills along the way. Join us on Thursday, Feb. 1 at 11AM for a discussion with professional writers, including senior editor, Lauren Viera, of Time Out Chicago and copywriter, Louie Calvano, from Upshot, about your writing career options and how to prepare a portfolio for each.
