Social Media Efforts

Well, there was a time when I was actually trying to do this thing called social media on a regular basis.  It had its fun times, but it also was a lot a of work that seemed to take me away from other work. 

After a looooong hiatus from blogging and tweeting and facebooking -- I'm trying to ease myself back into it.  The goal it to come up with a schedule or plan of action that makes sense. 

One of these things I came up with is a strategy I heard some writers do.  Commit to one page a day.  I read once of this author who says she commits herself to writing at least one page a day.  On some days, that page comes out in less than five minutes and she ends up on a roll and might do ten, twenty pages.  On other days that one page might take 12 plus hours. 

I certainly don't have 12 plus hours to commit to social media each day, but I am committed that my "one page" will be that I will do at least on social media activity each day.  Like that writer, there may be days when I get on a roll and become inspired by an event in my life or an epiphany of brilliance may occur that I feel I have to share with the world.  But I know on most days, it might just be one tweet, one facebook post, one viral video on YouTube....or one blog post.   Can you guess what my "one page" is today?

You know I love a great interview. When it comes to this blog, I want to be sure I am being a good interviewer. In addition, in those times I am the guest, I also want to make a good impression.

If you do too, you should take a few tips from Gayl Murphy, "The Celebritizer" who has done more than 14,000 interviews and has literally written the book on how to be a great interview that the media seeks out.
