Twitter.
I’m using it for a month to test it out. There’s been a four-to-five year lag time between when I created it and when I started using it, but I’m all-in now. So far it’s mostly just writing process stuff and pictures of my marimo.
I’m happy with it. Since write club is in quarantine / winter exile, it’s nice to have a writing community via hashtag at least. If you have any media strategy ideas, I’m open to them.

Particularly interested in:

(My newfound Tweeting hobby isn’t going to help with depth of content; notice the brevity of this blog, too.) So I’m going to do an update, really delve. Stay tuned!
