Reluctantly – kicking and screaming and tearing gouges in the flooring with my fingernails – I’m being dragged into the 21st century. Yes, I've started a Twitter account. Okay, let me rephrase that: I was
talked into starting a Twitter account by my much more media-savvy Older Daughter and more more realistic husband.
The reason behind this hesitant move into social media is because I'm trying to build my platform. Exciting moves are afoot on the writing front, in both the fiction and the nonfiction side of things, and Twitter is a powerful and concise way to get a message across. So...I'm on Twitter.
(Well, let me amend that:
We're on Twitter. Don and I are both working off the same Rural Revolution account. Believe me, you don't want to miss Don's hilarious sense of humor on this media platform.)
So, dear readers, I am begging a favor: If you have a Twitter account, please follow me at

Let's rock those tweets! Or twits. Or tweeters. Or whatever the heck they're called.
