(I now only comment on the blogs of people who comment on my blog) It seems callous, but it's a question of on-line survival and strategy.<br><br>CHIRON: Hahahaha! That's so true, Chiron. I'm always complaining to my husband that I never have enough time to write and he replies "But you're always on the computer! So what do you *do* there?"<br><br>MARILYN: Hope you enjoyed the article. I found it very pertinent.<br><br>LOTUSGIRL: I agree. On-line time is great fun but can be a tremendous time waster!<br><br>SEPTEMBERMOM: I considered Twitter but, in addition to the time constraints, the thought of being limited to 140 characters (or whatever) was daunting. I also feel blogging is a good on-line fit for me, although I do have to be very disciplined about limiting my on-line time otherwise I'd never get any serious writing done. <br><br>REBECCA: Thanks so much for the lovely award. I do appreciate it and will load it for everyone to see when it's my next blog post day!<br> <br>NANCY: Hope you managed a good amount of writing on your WIP - how you do it with your daily and weekly blog I just don't know!! :)Ann Victorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17455755011354905278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1522118719275646511.post-41778858872987913912009-09-08T22:21:00.708+02:002009-09-08T22:21:00.708+02:00You know, I'm not sure social networking is as...You know, I'm not sure social networking is as important as people make it out to be. I don't think authors need to Twitter or Facebook, they just need other people Twittering, Facebooking ABOUT them. How to get that?

The danger lies in their seductiveness: as an unpubleished author, I *feel* so much more like a "real writer" when I'm on-line, that I forget that the only thing that makes me a "real writer" is, well, writing the actual novels! :)Ann Victorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17455755011354905278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1522118719275646511.post-67557493001085522642009-09-10T17:22:34.397+02:002009-09-10T17:22:34.397+02:00Hah!
