Are you using Twitter to make connections and network with other writers – and the people who hire writers? If not, I recommend you take it into consideration. Twitter is a powerful and useful networking tool, plus it helps to break up the lonliness many of us experience when we work at home all day.

Hi Deb,
I love this website- check it almost daily. I’m a college student new to the freelance world, trying to get some experience so I can maybe land a permanent writing job one day. I’m really interested though in learning about internship opportunities. I know you all listed them in the past, but I haven’t seen any leads in a while. Any chance of you bringing them back?
I’m a newbie to twitter to! I’m ashleylyon on twitter.
Aha! Dial-up (at home) finally let me view FWJ but won’t open up any links. I suppose I should be glad I could even read FWJ. *s*
I’m @jennipps on Twitter.
Best,

Great post about Twitter. My ID is @derekwalter.
My Twitter IDs are @newtotvblogger, @mischanews and @gossipgirlfan. I love the idea of sharing our Twitter IDS because I like to follow fellow writers.
I’m almost done adding everyone! Again, I’m @samcab over on Twitter, so please shoot me a hello.
Cheril – Do you think it works to your benefit to have a different twitter for every site/blog? I don’t think I’d want to keep up with checking in on so many, but if you think it works, I just might give it a whirl.
On the different twitter for every site/blog question: I use @newtotvblogger for general posts but I find the other two useful as it attracts people who are interested in just “Gossip Girl” or the specific celebrity site I write for. It’s more time consuming and I’m still a newbie at Twitter, but I think it will be worth it in the long run.
I had a job offer from SliceDice also…. It’s my first freelance position, so im excited, but i cannot find anything on the internet about them either. I don’t know what to do.
i got a job offer from SliceDice…. I’m glad I found this orum because I thought it was strange that nothing could be found about the company on the internet… I don’t know what to do.
Hello all!!! I’m new to twittering, and hoping to use it to network with other bloggers/writers.
