I finally did it. I got a Twitter account.
I resisted for a long time. I thought Twitter was for chasing (oh, I mean following) celebrities around and getting updates on their latest gossip. And though I admire many newsworthy people, I had no desire to hear them tell us how they were now at Baskin Robins buying Rocky Road ice cream for their child (I don't particularly care to read that on Facebook by people I actually know and care about).
It wasn't until recently, after being encouraged by a good friend, did I discover just how wrong I was. Within minutes of setting up my account, I developed a community of incredible writers and organizations designed for writers.
The first person to follow me was my best friend, Jenn - no surprise there, she is a Twitter junkie! My second follower was the famous author and speaker, Angela Hunt, who I briefly met last year at the Indianapolis Christian Writers Conferernce. Wow, how fun!
Every time I check my Twitter feed, I am amazed and inspired by the talented people out there! All of you who are spreading your wisdom, passion for the written word and your heart for God through blogging and tweeting continue to challenge me on a daily basis. Thank you. I hope to earn a place amongst you!
So, if you need me, I'll be there, tweeting and retweeting!
