Of Interest:
Anne R. Allen posted about 7 Ways Authors Waste Time "Building Platform" on Social Media. An interesting read.
Any of these interest you? Anything to add? Publication news? What do you think about social media for building platform?
May you find your Muse.

Great photo! And I'm going to check out a couple of those links. Thanks!
Many of those together would form a cool haunted forest.
That looks like the mess of downed trees I'm trying to clean up in my back yard.
Something about the twists and turns of the trunk and branches always catches my eye as well.
A ghost tree! There's poetry in those twisty limbs.
Again, thanks for all the links you dig up.
That tree has a lot of history. That contest sounds interesting.
Hi human, Shannon,
That tree caught your eye? Hope it wasn't too painful! Arf!
Social media is a fun way for my human and I to pawmote others. We are good like that.
Pawsitive wishes,
Penny the Jack Russell dog and modest internet superstar!
Madeline, I hope one of them is helpful!
Alex, oh my goodness, that would be the best forest ever!
Susan G., well, that doesn't sound like fun.
Susan K.,it's a neat tree, isn't it? It was just standing there all by itself.
Lee, that's a lovely way to put it!
Maurice, I bet it does have a lot of history. And it's part of downtown, the oldest section of the city. So much to say.
Penny, happily, my eye is fine!
