Tumblr crosspost (15 January 2021)

[anghraine]

I know I should build up a Twitter presence™ for my serious business author account, but also … I don’t want to.

(This is clearly flawless reasoning at all times!)

#in fairness part of it is because #i'm on the fence about whether my novel is ya or not #the characters are young (12-16) and it's in first person so that's very ... present #though they get older over the course of the series #but most people have thought the style is not very ya-ish #so idek if it's worthwhile to dip my toe into the boiling sulfur lake that is ya twitter #regardless i haven't even checked my account in like three months #anghraine babbles #emphasis on 'babbles' #tbh i'll probably just stick around on tumblr until it collapses into a white dwarf and then drag myself by my fingernails to twitter

[ETA 4/10/2024: lol, a more innocent time when it seemed assured that Twitter's heyday would outlast Tumblr! And while I have many objections to Tumblr's current management, Twitter is assuredly worse and more unusable in every way, sometimes to the point of horror and sometimes to the point of outright comedy. I actually had started using Twitter actively on my writing account, as it happens, but I refused to continue after the Elon purchase.]
