In recent months I’ve heard a lot of questions from artists about Twitter. Mostly from people who are interested but do not know where to start when it comes to Twitter. And of course the question of “why would I join Twitter?” So I decided to right a little e-book to help out those who have not ventured into Twitter’s waters but are curious.
Let me say this from the get go, I am not one who will ever say “You have to be on Twitter!” I would not say that about anything. It is important to investigate tools and decide if they fit into your process as a working artist. The closest thing I have to a “have to” is a quality website. These days it is really good for people to be able to find you and your work online in a place you own all your pixels. But I digress, that is a topic for another post.
Today I’d like to introduce to to Twitter Primer for Artists:
It is a very basic book that covers the fundamentals of Twitter, from creating your account, to terminology, and finally optimizing your account. Think of it as a “getting started manual” for Twitter.
If you are someone who has been thinking about Twitter I suggest reading the book to help you decide if Twitter is right for you. Bottom line is that Twitter can help you connect with people anywhere in the world. And also Twitter is a lot of fun. If you do read it please let me know what you think. What did I miss? Was any part of it confusing? What parts did you wish I had gone more in depth with? What typos did my editor miss? How awesome is it?
And this is just the first in a series of books I will putting out over the coming weeks to help artists navigate the internet. Let me know what topic should be added to the list.
