Yeah, I Caved

I said I’d never do it.  Why would I?  I could barely think of anything to update my Facebook status thing with.  What the hell use would I have with a Twitter account?  Not to mention I’d only be able to access it like once a day.  Kind of defeats the purpose.

But then I found out you can text in twits.  And I upgraded my text plan early last month.  The stars were beginning to line up.

So I signed up.  And I update a few times a day.  Usually with snarky commentary on stuff that happens to me throughout the day.  Hey, whatever works.

Mainly it’s a tool to connect with fellow book bloggers.  A lot of them have Twitter accounts.  Not that I felt left out.  I just didn’t feel the need.  But after BEA, I wanted to get myself out there a little more.  Twitting was the way to do that.

I also created a Facebook page for my book blog.  Yeah, for exposure.  Why not?  Whatever works.

You can Like Bites on Facebook and/or follow me on Twitter at @donnaatbites.

I’m also posting a little bit of my writing stuff on Twitter as well.  Like today when I was bored at work and working on Diamond Crier, I twitted about an awesome concept I came up with about family hearts.  I like sharing stuff like that.  In 140 characters or less.

Ban This!

Be sure to head on over to my book blog, Bites, during the month of September for Ban This!  Book Bloggers for Book Smarts.  Not only will I be posting a bunch of banned and challenged book-related fun (plus I’m currently having a Ban This! contest and will have another one mid-month), but all the lovely blogs on my list of Ban This! blogs will be doing the same thing.

Banned Books Week is from September 26th to October 3rd this year but I wanted to expand that fun for the entire month.  So stop on by and join in!  Because you know ranking on teh stoopid is fun!
