What do people get out of rage tweeting/status updates? I’ve recently been somewhat befuddled by folks who watch something on TV (say, a particular channel or program) and then spend time posting anger filled tweets directed at said TV show.

Oh Hi
February is the Monday of months according to the always currently relevant Garfield The Cat. It's also clearly Blogging Prevention Month around here. My writing energies are all used up by the pergola site. With the ebook on sale - one book sold last week! - I have to ramp up the promotion which means... Continue Reading →
PSA for my twitter friends
