I've connected with lots of folks because I've searched for #write - and they've connected with me the same way. Also see Judy's comment above. Feel free to send me an email or post additional questions for clarification.<br />Blessings All - EEdie Melsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03902312441667526147noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2907737240492304428.post-5245458558969244382011-08-18T22:27:41.697-04:002011-08-18T22:27:41.697-04:00I don't get the hashtags even though I see the...I don't get the hashtags even though I see them all the time. I bet you already posted an explanation and I missed it. I have several of your posts in a "to read" folder but haven't caught up yet. Do you have a link to one in particular that explains them?

I realized I tweet in bursts when I have times, which may or may not be helpful to people who follow me. Recently, I've noticed with the "retweet" feature that people aren't writing tweets short enough for you to comment or even put a RT on it - so you have to just hit "retweet."Stacy S.

Will you be offering it on Smashwords, or the Sony Ereader store, or perhaps on PDF through your own site? It would be helpful to have other options for folks who don't have the Kindle and Nook, and yes, I know both of them have apps, but I don't like reading long material on my phone or computer.<br /><br />Thanks for your consideration!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2907737240492304428.post-40566817211369865612011-08-17T12:16:47.574-04:002011-08-17T12:16:47.574-04:00Celeste, you're doing great.

As you suggested, I used a hashtag on my blog this week and a lady from The Netherlands found my tweet. She works as a volunteer for ALS. The ALS hashtag I used helped me find the people I am looking to communicate with! I'm excited!!
