I wasn’t really sure what to make of Tumblr, at first…But
after starting my own blog on Tumblr last week, I’ve quickly become obsessed with the
site. While I still absolutely love getting a chance to
share longer posts here at my author blog, there's just something so incredibly challenging about keeping it short and sweet on sites like Tumblr (cutting out all the fat can be a real struggle for anyone who's a novelist at heart)! There’s also something fascinating
about how such quick, blurb-like posts have a way (over time) of painting a picture of the
blogger. One of my favorite features of Tumblr, though, is the way Q & A with another blogger can become a post in and of itself (as opposed to being a stream of comments at the end of a post):
How about you? What’s
the best—most fun or most useful—social networking site you’ve taken part in lately?
I'm fond of Twitter because of the brevity, but now I'll have to take a look at Tumblr since it seems to carry that same feature. I prefer to read and write very short and sweet blog posts anyway. Thanks for sharing. And I was thrilled to read on your sidebar that you have an MG on the way. Can't wait to read it. ^_^
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Angelina! Can't wait for you to read the MG...
