(For those on my Tumblr, this starts the beginning of synching my Blogger account with Tumblr so previous blog posts can be found at http://ping.fm/qwVIk)
It's a curious thing, getting established with blogs again. I remember back in the day all we really had was Livejournal. Truth be told I was an avid user of this website but as I grew and traveled around the country, I find myself putting distance between it and myself. Blogging back then was a deeply personal thing for me and I poured every ounce of my emotional angst into the internet like any young man would.
Well my emo days are long, long over. So once again I find myself stepping into the digital world to discuss and network. I don't have much of a choice, really. Being a self-published author is not an easy task and exposure is everything. Thankfully I am possessing of a certain charm and wit that, in theory, should help my chances in making it (at least, well enough to live off my art).
Very quickly I'd like to point out that this is all being established with the help of two awesome websites. hootsuite.com and ping.fm. Ping is mirroring my content to both my Blogger and Tumbler accounts. Hootsuite allows me to post blogs and social media 'tweets' without having to visit more than one website. With so many options out there for connecting with people, this just seemed to make the most sense.
