I loved your title here ... because it is addictive. No question. Like Kelly, I hired a VA to handle some of my social media ... twitter in particular. We work closely and I still jump in from time to time but she carries the load. If you think you are interested, she may be picking up new clients. Let me know. And now... write on!Patriciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05412397722654867858noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6828018556387318808.post-57329393815709381972015-03-05T09:35:52.169-06:002015-03-05T09:35:52.169-06:00Thanks, Fi.

Especially social media and writing.<br />There have been times when I retweeted and sent out so many tweets about my children's book that it made me feel so overwhelmed.. and not in a good way. It came to the point where I was walking the dog and almost walked into someone because I was checking my Twitter and had my head down. <br />I feel like if I haven't tweeted or linked up with a parenting blog or book reviewer for a giveaway, I am slacking. <br />Maybe we are too hard on ourselves when it comes to social media. <br />But then again, it must drive us all nuts when we just sit back and think the reviewers and tweeters are going to take care of everything themselves. We can't help but to get involved, lol.

I still post and I'm aware of everything she posts on my behalf, so it doesn't really cut down on the time I spend online.

But that lessened with my 30 Seconds Blog tour. I barely checked for reviews and went to my blog tour stops twice a day to check in. I hope your tour has been successful! :)Chrys Feyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11955009490266358041noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6828018556387318808.post-36311665947612867502015-03-02T10:32:33.151-06:002015-03-02T10:32:33.151-06:00I'm sorry Karen that promoting on social media...I'm sorry Karen that promoting on social media has gotten in the way of your writing.
