Most of you know, I am stoutly anti-Twitter. (No offense, I like you, but I don't care that you're watching Glee, then going to bed early and don't care to read about it.) But I thought I might turn this tool-of-nonsense into something productive and useful (and a fun experiment). Over the next goodness-only-knows-how-long, I will be using Twitter to "tweet" Jane Austen's PRIDE AND PREJUDICE. Yep, the whole thing, 140 characters or less at a time. But that's the rub. Since it's going to take for-flipping-ever, I'm abbreviating it into teeny, tiny words.
I wonder, will people like to read a marvelous novel this way? I guess I'll find out. Join up and follow along at http://twitter.com/twitature101, and for Pete's sake, don't start tweeting about doing laundry. Honestly.
Sprd th wrd!
