I’m on Twitter… I know…
I didn’t really want to join Twitter. One social networking site is enough for me and that always has been and always will be Facebook. But the world of tweeting called, just like the world of blogging did not so long ago, and I seem to have taken to that alright, so maybe Twitter will grow on me.
I do have my reasons for tweeting; it wasn’t just a case of doing it on impulse for lack of anything better do. I’m being strategic. Famous people tweet. Companies tweet. Since I’d quite like to have a job writing things for money one day, it seems sensible to get the things I write (awful as they may be) out into a place where the famous people and the companies that might be able to influence my future somehow can see them. People probably don’t admit to that very often, but why lie?
I’m an aspiring writer, and a lot of the success I hope to have depends on my having the confidence to put what I write out for the world to see. The more avenues I can thrust my writing down, the better. I already have my blog hooked up to my Facebook (as you will know if you have been reading what I write after I popped up on your news feed) If nothing comes of it, then never mind; at least I tried, right? But I hope that someday, somebody will read something I wrote having found it on Twitter or through Facebook or something, and they’ll love it so much that they’ll want me to do it for a living for them. That’s the dream. So don’t judge me, I’m doing this for the good of the world. Yep.
