Twitter hashtags for writers

Using hashtags on Twitter can be a great way to network with other writers, industry experts and readers. These keywords are floating around on tweets all over Twitter and are useful time savers when searching for information but also great tools for reaching your target audience.

Hashtags are community driven and work much like the tags you place on blog posts or images. You create a hashtag by simply prefixing a word with a hashtag e.g. #hashtag.

Here's a list of a few useful twitter hashtags for writers:

  • #AmWriting
  • #AmEditing
  • #WW (or #WriterWednesday)
  • #WordCount
  • #Writerslife
  • #LitChat
  • #WriteTip
