Have you heard about Twellow? Twitter?
Twellow you say? What is that?
It is the new online directory for Twitter.
The micro blogging site that you have recently seen in the news. Short messages are sent via computer or cell phone that share what the user is up to at the moment. Sometimes these are big thoughts, sometimes they are what’s for dinner.
One small problem with Twitter is that the person you are looking for may not have used their name as their identity to “tweet” from. For instance, I am MidpointBooks on Twitter but my personal name is Janel. If you were to look for me by first name, you wouldn’t find me. If you wanted to find a distributor for independent books; simply search for book distribution on Twellow and walla – you’ll find us in the search results.
How does this help you? As an author or publisher, by belonging to Twitter, you are able to distribute updates about your book as often as you want – like sending people to your YouTube trailer or your website – and keep them up-to-date about reprints, news, and interviews. And now, through Twellow, people can find you and follow you on Twitter easier than ever before. So whether you want to use your name, your book title, or your publishing name, you can “tweet” about your book to everyone you meet!
