I didn’t know you worked for DLA Piper - my cousin works for their Baltimore branch. (Don’t worry, I wasn’t stalking you - I was reading the Punk Up Your Resume post and looked at your sample)

Yay! I love Fiction Fridays and its markets. *goes off to read Thirteen Ways of Looking Fat before calling it a day*
Kate’s last blog post..First Sticky Post
Thanks for the resources…I guess I need to get my stuff together.

Hey Leigh, that’s pretty cool! Would be wild if I knew your cousin. I was in the bankruptcy group in the Chicago office, but I knew a couple of folks in the bankruptcy department of the Baltimore office. Actually, the firm was still Piper Rudnick when I worked left. They merge so often I keep going back to the website once a year or so to make sure I have the firm name right for my resume.
While I was there it went from Rudnick & Wolfe to Piper Marbury Rudnick & Wolfe to Piper Rudnick. I may have missed a few. 
I do have a few former Piper people who follow me on Twitter, and that’s kinda fun!
Kate, I’m glad you’re liking the Fiction Fridays. Let me know what you thought of that story.
Matthew, maybe we can get a two-for-one special and get our acts together together?
Amy, it was Piper Marbury Rudnick & Wolfe when he started working there. He is a real estate attorney.
Leigh’s last blog post..Frugal Freelancer Fridays: ThingFling.com
I barely knew the real estate lawyers in our own office, but that’s still pretty cool.
Amy, great postage, I’m enjoying the Fiction Fridays..
Sadly, storytellermagazine.com’s website has expired.
Too bad, it sounded like a great opportunity.

Hey Conrad! Thanks for letting me know. Crazy that they’re gone now; I just put that link up there, and they were good then!
Please do comment and discuss.
We love a good conversation!
Please use a name when commenting. Does not have to be your real name or full name. But responding to folks calling themselves "Make Money Writing Online" and such kinda sucks. Calling yourself keywords will likely get you thrown into my spam filter.
