1. You might land a movie deal or an animated special like me! It all started with a tweet!  2. Your book might get noticed by a famous store like Pottery Barn Kids who wants to sell it! Click here to see! I found out when Penguin Kids tagged me on Instagram! And this weekend I have to make a video for them!  3. Librarians and book reviewers want to tag you as they showcase your book. This happens to me mostly on Instagram.
4. You meet incredible people--writers, readers, bloggers, agents, editors, etc... 5. You find your tribe. (See #4) Those with common interests and passions will follow each other! For example, author Linda Sue Park put together Kibooka (Kids' Books by Korean Americans & Korean Diaspora) in which we knew of each other via social media. 6. You find ideas for books. The Ocean Calls started with a tweet. I love Twitter! 7. You might find your agent. (Again, like I said in #6, it all started with a tweet. I found my agent via Twitter.) 8. Your publisher wants to promote & tag you. 9. You can inspire others, and they will inspire you. 10. People care. As I've gone through the past few months having breast cancer surgery & radiation, many have reached out via social media offering encouragement, prayers, and thoughts. So there you have it. My 10 reasons why writers should be on social media. And during the pandemic and when I lived overseas, being online with others has really helped with that missing social piece! I'm thankful to God for all of you and for His blessings so far this year!

Being the winner of a multi-million-dollar lottery certainly is a life-changing event for almost every single lottery winner. My name is Mavis Wanczyk from Chicopee, Massachusetts and I want to use this medium to tell you how I became the famous Powerball lottery winner of $758 million (£591m). I know many people would wonder how I had won the lottery. Would you believe me if I told you that I did it with spell casting? I met this famous spell caster known as Doctor Odunga and he was the one who did it for me. As shocking as it was to me, my famous comment to the press was “ I’m going to go and hide in my bed.” Never did I believe that Dr. Odunga would make me wealthy overnight. If you want to have your chance of winning and becoming very wealthy just like me, contact Chief Dr. Odunga at Email: [email protected] and WHATS-APP HIM at +2348167159012 and you will be lucky. Thanks for reading and hope to see you at the top Leave a Reply. |
