If the me of a year ago knew what I was doing these days, he may have a heart attack. Or possibly slap his future self. Or some combination of that.
Yes I, Rami Ungar, resistant to new technology and social media crazes, have gotten a Twitter. Why? For the same reason I got a Facebook: to spread my writing to those who may not be on this blog but may be on other social media websites. This twitter account of mine, @RamiUngartheWriter, will focus exclusively on my writing. Already I’ve published a couple of tweets advertising my upcoming collection The Quiet Game: Five Tales To Chill Your Bones. I’m very excited and I hope I gain a followship soon. You’re welcome to follow me if you like. Just know this: I’ve got a scary picture as my profile pic and it may cause some nightmares.
And no, it’s not of my face. Much scarier than that.
Also, I don’t know if any of my blog followers got a notification (do they send notifications for pages?), but I set up a new page that lists my upcoming books. Which means of course at this point only The Quiet Game is on that list, without even a picture, but I plan to rectify that soon. Check it out if you like, and have a great weekend.

Good for you! I have such a hard time with twitter. But like you said, it can get your writing to new places. Good luck with it, hope you have an easier time understanding it than I do! 🙂
From your mouth to God’s Holy Ears.
Did you retweet this?
I think so.
Good! Use these social media for all their worth and advertise! It’s a key component to building up a fan base, at least according to my Self-Pub guru.
who’s your Self-Pub guru?
His name is Fraser, he runs Universe Today, one of the websites I get my astronomy news from. I used to write articles for him, and when he found out I was a writer, he introduced me to the whole blogging, self-pub, and online promotions thing.
That’s pretty cool, man. I have a guy who persuaded me to self-publish too, but I want to tell him first before I announce it anywhere else.
