Here is an interesting article from September 2012 that I found interesting about Twitter being considered a place for creative literary minds to express themselves. Enjoy!
Thanks for sharing this article with us! I find it interesting that the writer of this article seems skeptical, yet intrigued, about the idea of Twitter becoming a new, virtual place for people to explore literary pursuits. As I was reading this article, I was reminded of the 18th century salons that writers such as Voltaire and Rousseau attended, and I wondered what they would think about people trying to turn Twitter into a virtual literary salon. Like the author of "Twitter and Literature: Unlikely bedfellows?", I remain skeptical about the idea of Twitter becoming this kind of literary forum.
