#TwitterFiction – I just might try it

Twitter.

Love it or hate it, Twitter is a very popular place for superfans to stalk, uh, find their favorite authors.

I have lots of fun in the land of 140 characters because I’m an instant gratifaction kind of girl, and (hopefully) I can actually talk to people.

What can an author do on Twitter?

I talk all about in one of the chapters in The Coffee Break Guide to Social Media.

Here’s a few ideas for you.

Announce your upcoming or latest book.

Have a Tweet Chat with fans.

Post pictures of your inspirations (aka hot cowboys)

Ask research questions

Find writing buddies (Try #1k1hr. #amwriting and #NanoWrimo)

Make friends

Write stories

Wait, what was that last one? Write stories? On Twitter?

Sure, why not? I hadn’t thought of it until I watched a Ted Talk by cool Twitter dude, Andrew Fitzgerald.

If you’re bored with the same old @s and #s, watch this and see if you don’t get inspired to write some #TwitterFiction

I love the idea of creating a Twitter account for a character or specifically to tell stories. Would you do it?

Happy writing,
