I was fortunate, early in my online broadcasting life as a poet and writer, to learn that my tweets and posts and tiny ramblings, were considered as "published" by most journals. It's one of the reasons I only share published (by journals) work here. Thought this tip might help other poets and writers. @poets @writers #PoetryCommunity #WritingCommunity #poet

@lacouvee @poets @writers that’s exactly why I post poems here and FB. No gatekeepers, no waiting 6 months for a rejection, no magazines with 200 subscribers, no editors changing my crafted neologisms to the ‘correct’ word, no lazy pastings of my poems that loses stanzas and italics; and feedback from my readers. Honestly, what is better?

@davgar51 @poets @writers as long as you are comfortable with that, it's all that counts.

@lacouvee @poets @writers indeed, and it is good to point it out because it isn’t obvious, and indeed doesn’t have to be so.

@davgar51 @poets @writers yes, it is not obvious to many "emerging" writers/poets. Social media has become ubiquitous. People don't necessarily understand it as a communications/publishing platform.
