You think you want a bunch of Twitter followers, and then you think maybe not. Here’s Jenny’s take. Maybe you don’t!
In the space of only a few months, I have accrued well over five thousand Twitter followers. To be honest, I probably could have gathered another five thousand in that time, but the work on my upcoming book would have suffered (even more than it already has this summer).

Great post! DM’s are always a topic of debate. I read them, don’t usually reply to them, and don’t send them. I don’t follow eggs with no faces, or suspicious people with like 3 tweets in total. When I’m not sure, I investigate them. I check their websites and other social platforms. 🙂
