I’ve never been able to really figure Twitter out. I do have an account, and I do check it once in awhile, I just don’t use it much. I figure it’s mostly because I tend to be too long-winded to limit myself to 140 characters, including punctuation marks, and spaces. And except for the occasional LOL or ROTF, I don’t abbreviate. That means Twitter frustrates me, forcing me to slaughter sentences. But when I was checking a little bit ago, for the first time in probably a month, my jaw just about hit the floor.
Why?
Because someone I don’t even know retweeted a post. And that post said…
One of my novels was listed on the books page … in USA Today!
I am completely speechless. Okay, so I’m not exactly speechless, but I am thrilled and excited – and if I weren’t so tired because it’s my bedtime, I’d be doing a happy dance all over the house.
So I just wanted to share that as I head off to dreamland. Now, hopefully, I’ll be able to fall asleep. 🙂
Yup. I kind of know how Rocky felt at the end of this video.
just looked it up on USA Today to see which book because all that I’ve read have been excellent. The title is A Fine Mess. No surprise and I’m proud of you 🙂
great news 🙂 <3 Which book? I knew you were good 🙂 <3
That is TOO STINKIN’ AWESOME!!!!!! WOO HOO!!!!!!!!! I cam now say I knew you when. don’t forget us little people. 😀
Well … I’ll let you know the moment I get past ‘when,’ and then you can say it. 🙂
But thank you. And I never forget anyone. Unless they invite me over for liver, green bean casserole, and Brussels sprouts. And then I tend to have memory lapses. 😀 😀 😀
High Five! Guess that just means you need to check your Twitter at least once a week, huh? 😉
Thank you, ma’am. And if I would try to check Twitter once a week, but I think I’m allergic to it. I will try to do better though. Probably time to post a note on my bathroom mirror (my version of a message board). 😉
Whooohoooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey, Jenny! Nice to see you here. I check your blog periodically, but so far nothing after the gingerbread house post that I’ve been able to find. That was a
nag, hint by the way. 😀That’s so cool! Congrats!
