I'm Tweeting... a little bit.

I announced last week that I had at least logged on and got an account. I'm officially @StephDoyleRW. So for now the guilt at not doing what I need to for my publisher has gone away.

And here is what I'm learning – I definitely like twitter more than facebook as a publicity tool. For me facebook is intimate. It's family and friends. It's my nieces and nephews. It's the people I work with. Talking about writing or my opinions on various different things… I don't know feels odd to me. Like if I had something to say I would just call anyone of those people directly and say it.

Twitter feels different. Like you're sending your voice out into the vast and infinite universe and if people hear and respond – great. If they don't then that's okay too. I know the point is to build followers but I find I like just sending my message out into the world.

I don't care for it as much as blogging here. Not enough words to work with. You should have seen me try to make that – sign go away. Maybe this will help me improve my sentence structure. Still, it's been interesting and something that won't be a burden to do although check back with me in a month.

The trick will NOT be doing it after wine. WINE + TWEET = BAD.

I need that sign hung somewhere over my computer.
