What I Won’t Tweet About

Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

So, I admit it. I’m really getting into Twitter and interacting with a diverse group of people. Frankly, there are some things I just refuse to tweet about.

Now, when I say “diverse”, I mean professionals, fellow artists, companies, and as I’m fast learning, younger people living at home with Mom and Dad issues. For the most part, the tweeting is mature and slanted toward marketing. That’s fine. Occasionally there’s a post about the dog wetting the bed and what an awful hangover someone has. Here’s what you will never read in my Twitter updates.

Anything political other than a no-brainer stance. No matter who you voted for, you’re going to alienate 50% or so of your readers. Can you really afford that, especially with this economy?
Anything personal. There are some things I won’t even tell my husband let alone blurt into cyberspace.
Negative stuff about work. I’ll take my venting elsewhere.
Bodily stuff. Enough said.
Religion. To me, this is so intensely personal, so private. It’s getting to the core of who I am as a person. Why would I want to shout it out on the street?

So there, I’ve said it. Happy tweeting!
