Why Every Writer Needs to Be on Twitter
By Marcy Kennedy (@MarcyKennedy)
I’m still on my summer guest posting travels around the internet (you’ll see more posts here at the home base starting again in September), and I didn’t want you to miss my latest. This past week I visited Kristen Lamb’s blog to talk about my favorite social media site–Twitter.
Twitter often gets a bad rap by people who don’t understand it, misunderstand it as full of spam and celebrity stalkers, or don’t know how to use it to its full potential to build an author platform. When used correctly, though, Twitter can be one of the best tools for meeting new readers and increasing traffic to your blog. Not to mention, it’s fun!
Don’t believe me? Well, let me prove it to you then. I have seven reasons why I think every writer should be using Twitter.
I am also starting to plan out my WANA International classes for the next year, as well as what topics I might cover here during the remainder of 2013, so if there’s something you want me to post about or if there’s a particular subject you want me to teach a webinar on, please leave me a message in the comments below!
