Okay, folks... I'm going to try and do my RT's for Sample Sunday a little different this week. I've gotten complaints from a couple of my Twitter followers (and lost two) because of Sample Sunday... namely, they get inundated with tweets on Sample Sunday, and feel I'm turning to spam. I've been told that they don't mind a few RT's of things like this, but a dozen or more in a day is too much.

So, I'm going to spread my Sample Sunday RT's out over the course of this week. I'll do a few a day, interspersed with my normal stuff, all the way through next Saturday. I am hoping this will appease my followers, as I very much don't want to be seen as a spammer. I also hope it will help keep things going for our samplers by spreading these out like this.

So, if you'd like to wait until I've re-tweeted you to re-tweet me, I'm cool with that, folks... for those of you who put an @ mention in your tweet, you'll know when I get around to you! :)

Here's mine:

I worry about that when I do #sytycd #deadliestcatch #glee #thegleeproject I feel like I'm cluttering up my followers' timelines. These are my interests and I mention them in my profile. So, win some, lose some.

I use hootsuite. I don't know how it compares to others, but it works fine for me.
There's something that'll let you schedule tweets in advance?? Holy crap, that would make this easier... LOL

2 things: HootSuite is cool, I didn't know there was such a thing as tweet scheduling!  And, I've got everyone up to here scheduled for tweeting over the next few days.  :)

Looks like there's some interesting new material here! I've started reading during the week, rather than trying to get through it all on Sunday.

As I don't have many Twitter followers, and most of them have come from this thread, I'm not afraid of offending anyone. LOL

Nothing new from me. Last night, I tried to edit and format a new chapter of the serialized fantasy novel, but just couldn't make it through. Today, I have relatives arriving from out of town. Next week, I have to head overseas for a short break before some business meetings. Then comes the move (also overseas). Sample Sunday will be a luxury over these next three weeks!

I will read all your offerings and tweet about some of them later today and through the coming week. (Spreading out the love seems like a great plan.)

Meanwhile, the previous two chapters of Transplantation are still up on our website, so here's a tweet if anyone feels like helping me out with no firm promise of reciprocity today. ;-)
