That's our twitter tag name, what's yours?

It's pretty funny, but a few years ago, maybe even less then a year ago I was not going to use twitter.  There was no way, no how that I would find myself Tweeting.

Ha, so much for that.  I really enjoy using Twitter, but Amy still isn't too keen with it, but I think it is one of the greatest ways for people to communicate, network, and find great books.

Twitter has become a great source to connect with other authors, readers, reviewers, bloggers, and just about any other crazy or cool person we want to meet.

To use Twitter, you have to use another language - it's like texting, but not quite the same.  Somethings have #tags and everyone is an @something.  Instead of using the word you, you say u.  That way u don't use up the 140 characters that u get when u tweet.  Yeah, imagine that, I say things in 140 characters or less.

If you haven't checked out Twitter, give it a shot.  Our tag is at the top and if you are already on Twitter or if you are going to join, post your tag and we will follow.

LET THE TWEETING BEGIN!!!

Oh and as is customary for all Tweeps, here are some of the people we follow.  Please give them a look and a follow.

M. Social Networking

Social networking is such a spiderweb of tasks and a person can get easily distracted.  I know that I have work to do and writing to do, but there is so much interesting writing out there to read.  I just want to cut through all of it and read.

Then I catch up on the news and before I know it, I lost more time.  Then of course, there is networking, promoting, and eventually writing.  I am not using it as an excuse, but I feel like a lazy gardener.  If this blog were roses then it would be wilted.

I will attempt to get on a schedule of at least Monday and Friday blog posts and then work on getting the contest going ever other Wednesday.  I am still committed to making it work, I am just adjusting to some new responsibilities.

Thank you all for being patient and if you are interested, please stop by FB and become a fan of Tristen & The Magic Shop Fan Page.
