It’s Clare’s birthday. Send cake and balloons!
TB’s week has been busy, even though she only penned a lousy 2k. She’s been battling a cold/flu thing and whining quite a bit. In good news, the word from her ARC team has been positive about Reservations of the Heart. The highlight of her week: watching the US Open tennis finals.
Clare’s audiobook is finally off her plate. Squee! Even better news, aside from it being her birthday, she’s fallen in love again with her upcoming release Made in London. This is a huge step! Also, she’s commissioned to have her website refreshed. In shocking news, while in a loo, she discovered a title for a book. One word: controversial.
Now for the main subject: social media. Clare lays down the ground rules for how writers should use it. They discuss the pros and cons, and neither of them thinks they use SM correctly. Clare is a bit controversial, which is kinda the norm since her favorite C-word is the one most would never utter. The duo caution not to get too caught up with social media since it’s designed to be addictive. Remember, the point of social media is to be social.

Clare and TB
TB, just a quick fyi: if they tag you, it means they do want you to react. The way people use Facebook, a “like” is often a checkmark: “I’ve seen your post/comment” and it will be enough.
Hi Miira!
