On Tweeting

“I tot I taw a puddy tat. I did! I did taw a puddy tat!”

Oops. Sorry. TweetING not TweetY.

Ok. One groan-worthy, corny joke – check. Now that we have that out of the way let me just say, with regard to Twitter, eeeek! I am slowly getting more comfortable with it, but the key word here is s-l-o-w-l-y. I managed to find a bunch of celebrities/businesses, etc. I want to follow, but in trying to find people I actually know on Twitter  – forget it.

I typed the name of a co-worker who told me I could follow her into the search box at the top of my screen (on the computer – not my phone).  Do you know how many women with her name are on Twitter? Holy cannoli! I emailed her to ask what her twitter handle is, otherwise I would have been scrolling through names for HOURS.

Still, it’s fun. I get scads of tweets from Writers Digest and am happy to say this all coincides with the rebirth of my Burning Desire To Write. It just left me – for months. I almost didn’t recognize myself for a while there! But no worries – it’s back and all is well. Anyway, I’m really enjoying myself. It’s much easier to keep up with than Facebook (although Facebook still has its place).

Twitter – inspiring people in 140 characters or less! ❤  –@teen-quotes
