#Twittertips #Authors Make sure your profile photo is striking so it stands out in people's Twitter stream
#Twitter#Tips Profile photo: use a head shot of yourself, or a screen shot of your book front cover. People are drawn to faces.
#Twitter#tip Set up emails so that ones from Twitter and social media accounts automatically go into a separate folder. Less distraction

Received a fantastic review. "This book is an absolute MUST HAVE, especially if you're an author." So grateful myBook.to/TweetAuthors

Great use of Twitter to bring your central character alive (in this case it's a cat with over 12,000 twitter followers) - @MYSADCAT
I started tweeting as me (@sarajgreenfield) but most of my followers are Norwich based - wouldn't be interested in book tweets
Have you bought a book after reading a blog? I read a great blog by @megan_denby and bought her book.

When writing this book, I started to follow authors, then realised that they would't be interested in my normal tweets - hence @tweetauthors
When you have a Twitter account just for your book, you can be very focused on your target market for that book.
A must-read for authors and for anyone else trying to promote their product in an intelligent manner. myBook.to/TweetAuthors
