Twitterology

So since my Social Mediaaaaaa post I made an effort to actually participate a bit more with the social media scene. I first signed up for twitter in November of this year, and when I first started I only had 2 followers for the first few weeks. In the last week I have had seven new followers. For some that may not be much, but for me it's all about baby steps. What's the difference between the first few weeks and this past week? I've been tweeting! Not as much as some people, but again baby steps. Interacting with people is key when you are getting ready to promote any product, including a book. 

I guess the biggest thing for me at this point is all about being conscious of what I am tweeting. I want to express myself, and so far I have, BUT I have to constantly remind myself, this isn't just my 'personal' twitter account, this is the same platform I am going to use to promote my books. I've even found myself deleting some of my tweets. 

Being apart of the social media scene is not easy. It takes a lot of time and effort to stay on top of things. In the meantime, between time, I look forward to keep you updated on my journey to having my first book published!

Oh, and if you were curious, you can follow me @Jess_alex88, you know, just in case... 

Update: my sister still hasn't followed me :P (see Social Mediaaaaaa article from below)
