Twitterific

Terry3_thumb[1]

Here are writing links that I’ve posted to Twitter for the past week. If you’re looking for a particular topic, just plug in your keyword into the search box at the top left-hand corner of the blog (on the black header right above my blog name…next to the Blogger symbol…the small search window is next to the magnifying glass) and the roundup with your subject will come up. To narrow your search down on the page, do a CTRL+F, type your subject, and hit enter.

Unfortunately, I’ve had technical difficulties the last couple of days with the program that usually puts my tweets in Excel for me—it’s down. :(   So there’s no formatting today….sorry for the mess!
