Want to learn to use Twitter as a writer–not just to promote yourself but to engage in the literary community?
An active social media presence is practically required for writers in the twenty-first century. Twitter is the friendliest, easiest to use and most helpful social media platform for writers. Every day, thousands of writers, agents, and editors take to Twitter to find new books, give writing advice, and take part in a dynamic literary community. This class will help writers learn the basics of Twitter, allow them to explore advanced options (such as lists and hashtags), learn proper Twitter etiquette when interacting with agents or editors, and show how to enter “pitch contests” that can change a writer’s life. Whether you’re new to the platform or a seasoned user, we’ll learn how to turn Twitter into a writer’s best friend.
Each participant should come to class with an active Twitter account and a device capable of accessing the internet.
TAKE THIS CLASS IF
- You’ve been told to get active on social media but aren’t sure what to do on it.
- You want to post on social media about something other than your own writing.
- You want to learn to listen in on professional writers, agents, and editors talk about the business.
The deadline to register for this class is Wednesday, October 20 at 5:00 PM CDT.
