Twitter for Dummies (Like Me), Part IV

Every now and then, I weigh in on a blog, talking about my ongoing twitter adventures. I've tweeted almost 2K tweets, so I'm either doing something right, or I'm a failure doomed to repeating myself. LOL. Just kidding. Twitter is fun.

I've met some good folks via twitter. They're friendly and helpful. I also try to support my fellow writers on #WritersWednesday and #FollowFridays. The good karma is returned to me. Do I sell any books? No idea.

My twitter mood is usually upbeat. Nobody likes a whiner. I like to share links to newspaper stories I find interesting. Or I'll give a pointer to a book review (including my own here on Goodreads) I think is worth sharing.

Lately, I've been promoting my new noir Lake Charles released this week in paperback. But I also do my other tweets, since I'd get pretty sick and tired of just tooting my own horn all the time.

Anyways, here's a useful link I dug out covering twitter acronyms and abbreviations from the good folks at digiphile. I bookmarked it for when I get stuck trying to decipher the tweets:
