I’m
(very) far from being a Twitter guru, but I’ve started to develop a taste for
Twitter. The connection aspect (which is
what Twitter is all about – connection) fascinates me. At first Twitter may be overwhelming and
confusing, but it gets better. You soon
begin to figure out how to find people you want to follow. You learn how you can “tweet your own horn” and
get people to know – and, perhaps, follow – you. You navigate Twitter finding info on
virtually anything you’re interested in.
There’s
a ton of useful info on Twitter. I’m mostly
interested in writing (although not solely.)
I haven’t been on Twitter that long, but I’ve already been very fortunate
to find invaluable advice on writing itself as well as on things that accompany
it: blogging, building a platform, getting published, promoting your book,
etc.
One
of my favorite blog posts ever (found thanks to Twitter) is Anne R. Allen’s
How
can you resist a title like that? The
title is great, but the post is even better.
If you haven’t seen it yet, you’re in for a treat. Go over to Anne’s for a refreshing take on
the “how to” of blogging. Browse her
blog – you’ll be amazed at how informative, helpful and fun her posts are. Enjoy!
