A passing glimpse into Twitterland
Dear tweeting reader,
In an earlier letter to you, I mentioned that I was venturing onto Twitter. It is a strange format — 140-character messages at a time, thrown out into a great, teaming conversation with hundreds, thousands, sometimes millions of people.
Through Twitter, I’ve connected with so many wonderful readers, writers, bloggers, book reviewer, editors, and many more. Today, I want to share with you a few of the tweets flying around out there. This is an interactive letter, so you might have to use google translate. And it will seem entirely random and disconnected, which is exactly how Twitter works. But please click on the links, and I promise a few surprises.
