After writing about blog followers and view counts yesterday, I thought I might as well get it all out of my system and write something about using Facebook today. Because I’ve tried a few different things, and maybe my experiences can prove useful. But the last several hours of today have been abut pizza, beer … More Pizza, Beer and Nerdiness
This is going to be one of those posts where I wish I was in more of a writing community. I’m not. I mean, I have a few friends who are writers, but somehow that is different. But if I were a part of a writing community I would ask a few questions about growing … More Thoughts on Writing Socially
