  1. That was fun! I’m still trying to improve my Twitter skills, I feel like Im too slow, and my phone does not automatically update the chat Lol Anyone have any tips?

  2. Meredith, it was another blast! thank you so much for sharing your hospitality with us! absolutely FuN! deliteful authors and attendees + lots of insider news on upcoming publishing and projects on the go. excellent twitter partying “)) TY!!

  3. ok for tips that work for me – first thing i do is click follow on all the authors participating, then into #austenesque which gives me running tweets that aren’t too many to follow, that i can click reply w/o beginning a new comment – quicker that way – also have #austenesque copied so you can right click it into your tweet at the end of your ‘reply’.
    hoping that’s clear/understandable ?
    participating makes it easier ea time! and just take time to enjoy reading your fellow party-ers thoughts “))

  4. That was a great chat. I loved meeting some writers and Janeites I haven’t connected with before, and I hope some of the ones who were new to Twitter will stick around after the Extravaganza.

  5. Faith Hope Cherrytea, thanks for the tips. I am new to twitter (as of last Sunday). I will try your tips for the next Sociable Sunday if I can figure out exactly what you described! 🙂

  6. Meredith, would you care to post the extracts of the twitter conversation after it is over? This is for the benefit for those who don’t tweet or can’t make it (like me).

  7. What Luthien84 said. I’m not a twitterer, but it would be interesting to know what’s talked about. Maybe like a summary, best comments, etc…

  8. Aw man, I missed it. 🙁 This is what one gets for taking a vacation during the Austenesque Extravaganza!!
