Working at a medium sized firm for the summer, and recently wrote a short article (5-6 pages) for a partner that is going to be published as CLE material. The partner is being nice enough to give me credit as a co-author.
My question is how should I include this on my resume? It feels kind of pretentious to start an entire publications section just for one 5-6 page article. My LR note didn't get chosen for publication, otherwise I'd feel a little more legit about it.
Thoughts?

Do it. Pretentious or not, you have a published article with your name on it. Ergo, publication.

Re: Publication Question
It is ok to put on my resume, he mentioned that as being part of the reason he is going to give me co-author credit. Just asking what the best way to include it would be.

Re: Publication Question
Just make a "Publications" heading on your resume. If you're published, it may be a bit of padding, but it's not dishonest. And it can be a nice boost.

Anyone know how to cite this? Can't find anything in the bluebook.

Re: Publication Question
Another option is to put it under the entry on your resume for the job. i.e.:
Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen and Katz Summer 2012
-Did a bunch of M&A stuff
-Ate lots of lunch
-Publication: Andrew Smith and Robert Johnson, Criteria for the Selection of Midtown Lunch Spots WLRK Client Alert No. 50, June 2012
