Well, that was trippy.

I'm getting a kick out of Twitter.

I'm stalking four celebrities on there in addition to all my friends -- Neil Gaiman, Stephen Fry, Tom Felton, and Wil Wheaton. I'd heard that Wil's a bit of a dork and he seems like someone I'd get on with, which is the main reason I started following him.

Short while ago, he posts that he found two new, good reviews of stuff he's published and that it made for a great start to his day. Hey, I'm a writer, I can appreciate that. Out of curiosity, I click the link for the review of his book Just a Geek. Turns out, the writer of the review is none other than melydia!

I immediately "tweet" her to let her know that he's posted this, since I can see in her profile that she doesn't follow him on there, and she goes and leaves him a message and the whole thing was just lulzy and fun. :D

Technically, I could petition to have my name added to the list of minor celebrities, in the author section. I have written a book. But given that it's a book that next to no one has ever heard of, this seems a bit impolitic. I'll just wait until I've published some fiction. (Wrote a prologue yesterday...) That's the reason I'm using my real name on there instead of Lady Norbert or something. Someday I shall be internet famous! Or famous-er, depending on your point of view.

Oh, it's a tiny book on volunteering called Saving the World in Your Spare Time. Not as good as it should have been, but I tried. And I've written some twenty-odd articles for a company that publishes magazines for the medical field. (That's not as intellectual as it sounds -- they send me finished interviews and I turn them into articles -- but the pay's decent.)

excuse my brain fart there. I meant write not right. I was telling the honey he was right about something at the sametime I was typing write. lol

Not a problem -- you'll find I'm fluent in typo. ;)
