Let’s NOT sing like the birdies sing. Common Social Media Mistakes Writers Make
And you lot can just go and sit on a tree branch instead.
Saying……
OR even….
In case people didn’t hear the first time so you need to tell them another 1000.
I wouldn’t worry. You think anyone’s seriously gonna notice in the average tweet stream, that that book doesn’t exist and it’s got five stars.
Well no. Sure you have a book to promote, or a painting, or anything creative, you use social media tools. Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest, blogs. One, all, whatever. It’s one of the reasons they’re there.
Yep. You’re a new writer Mitsy, or maybe you’re an established one—–as was said to the lovely author Sharon Struth, who then said it to me, if you don’t blow your trumpet who the hell else will?
No.
Cos you gone and clogged up my tweet stream with your 101 daily scheduled buy my book tweets. I don’t know about buying your book, but I certainly could write your tweet.
(BTO I do know about buying your book. I won’t. )
What one?
Oh, I binned that. You see I do too….. Then I unfollowed you back.
I’d love to be. On one condition. 
I don’t want a book recommendation from you, one day later that just happens to be your own.
Perhaps. But I’ve not been 5-7 for a very long time. Can we get with the program? I’m an erotic romance writer not a primary school teacher looking to read Bimbo the Lovely Bunny to the class.
No problem. 
Even better. 
My lord! What is it? 
Er…..Sorry. No can do. I mean I got my blog readers to consider here. And far as I know they don’t want bored into an early grave.
Absolutely I don’t. I use all the Social Media sites I can and yes, I do tweet my work. Show me an author who doesn’t.

Lol, Mitsy, with the force of your personality, by interaction with others, bloggers, authors, readers, by a ton of things really. You’re a selling tool don’t yah know? Go see what you can bring to the table and use yourself wisely.
