    My advice:

    1. Create some mock projects (state that they are mock projects unless you actually execute on them and run them seperately).
    2. Build a website to showcase projects (tumblr is free)
    3. Talk about what you do to everyone and anyone.
    4. Start freelancing.
    5. Build up a cadre of real projects.
    6. Rinse and repeat.
    ...or go corporate for that steady & boring but always welcome check

    I was in your position in 04 and forced my way into the field.
    & Don't take no for an answer.
