Mookse on Twitter

April 26th, 2009 | Posted in Uncategorized | 2 comments | Print This Post

I’ve recently put up a twitter spot for Mookse, though I know little about Twitter or about whether it will prove worth the small amount of time it takes to keep it going.  I’ve twittered a bit about the books I’m getting and reading and reviewing, and I also try to pass on any interesting book news I hear. 

Feel free to follow @mookse.

Also, please let me know of any excellent inside-the-book-industry twitterers.

    I don’t twitter.

    I have 4 email addresses and 3 blogs (thinking of getting rid of one) and that’s enough for me.

    If I find a publisher that twitters, I will let you know.

    Thanks Isabel. Having book news come across immediately is my main reason to twitter. I found out just a few hours too late that Richard Price was in Newark last week.
