I’ve been thinking a lot about my presence on the internet lately, and how I want to “brand” myself. Obviously I’m a writer in the query trenches, but I’m also an intern for PSLA, so it’s important that I conduct myself with a certain level of professionalism. Or at least…it’s important that I try!<\/p>\n

This doesn’t just go for me though. For those of us just starting out, it’s important that we take into consideration how we present ourselves to the world. I’m not saying you shouldn’t tweet about having a bad day or how hard it is to reach your daily word count–by all means do this, especially if it helps you to connect with other writers. \u00a0But does it make sense to tweet about how you never write, and you feel like you’re failing? What about how you’ve written twenty books and none of them are worth a damn? That’s the kind of thing we can all relate to, but does it send the “right” message to the professional world? (note: I’m playing a bit of the devil’s advocate here, so don’t freak!<\/em>)<\/p>\n

So for those of us (and I think there are many) who use Twitter as a professional resource as well as a social one, walking the line between professionalism and provocation can be hard. Especially when you have a potty mouth like I do.<\/p>\n

There are rare cases of the development of benign intracranial hypertension (pseudotumor of the brain) including when combined with tetracyclines. In such patients, Accutane should be discontinued immediately. The https:\/\/nutritionkit.com\/good-accutane-for-acne\/<\/a> effects of solar insolation and UV therapy should also be limited. If necessary, a sunscreen with a high protection factor of at least 15 SPF should be used.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

So what should we do? Stifle ourselves in hopes of seeming perfectly professional? Let loose because we refuse to be silenced? Or is there some line in the middle that we can walk?<\/p>\n

If any of these components get disrupted, problems with sexual viagra prescription report<\/a> viagra prescription functioning may be experienced. You probably have a family sale viagra<\/a> and therefore want to purchase a new car that will accommodate all of you. But today, modern medicine has enabled us to use viagra samples australia<\/a> these herbs and get satisfying results too. In the lead up to every Valentine’s Day is the abundance of adverts http:\/\/secretworldchronicle.com\/2016\/07\/<\/a> viagra online for chocolates and wine as gifts for your loved one. <\/span>Agents and editors talk about professionalism a lot. Things like your email address, your profile picture, and the way you communicate in correspondence can sometimes mean the difference between a request and a pass, and I’ve heard many people in publishing complain about people who break protocol by calling their office or showing up at their door. But what about how we handle ourselves on Twitter, and, to a lesser degree, Facebook and Tumblr?<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

So what do you think? Should we be able to say whatever we want, or should we try to keep things PC? Is there a line to be walked, or is this so nebulous that it’s pointless trying to predict who will be offended? <\/strong><\/p>\n

Thanks for reading!<\/p>\n

P.S.\u00a0I’m not trying to preach conservatism–just using this as a forum for thinking through the intersection of social media and professional goals.
