Anti Social Media Presents

     So, in my quest to start a secondary career as a social influencer, I wanted to make sure I had at least a minimum amount of media coverage.  I know that I need more, but I'm not sure what exactly I need and where I should be.  Obviously, I'm on Blogger, otherwise how could you be reading this post.  Unless you are some sort of telepath reading my mind, which, knowing me, could be entirely possible.  And, I do have two other blogs, my literary blog which I just started back on, and my store's blog which I haven't had an actual post on for over a year.  I have a channel of sorts on YouTube, since it is part of the Google suite of products.  I haven't done as much with it as I could be, but I have had one person follow me for a while, and two people commented once, but I think they were talking to each other.  Maybe.  I am also on Facebook, but so is practically everyone.  My store, Booknotes, is also on Facebook.  I post links to both Blogger and YouTube there.  In fact, more people probably see this from the links than by actual searching. Beyond those, my scope begins to thin out.  I'm on LinkedIn, but is rarely use it.  I'm just not that geared towards business at the moment.  I could use a lot of help there.  For instance, I messaged someone there recently on their birthday, but they never replied.  However, I just got a notification that they added new contacts to their profiles.  They interacted for one that, but not a message.  Okay.  My lack of a mobile device prevents me spreading my influence even farther.  So, no Instagram or Snapchat for me, just yet.  I have looked into Reddit quite a bit, but I have to officially join.  It just seems to confusing for me.  Then, there are all of these video fee channels going up, like Twitch.  I am still not sure exactly what that is.  I tried looking in on it a few times during a recent online convention.  Unfortunately, the only times I could look into it were when nothing interesting was happening, so I never could figure out what to do there and how to interact.  Besides, I think it is connected to Amazon, who is a direct competitor of mine, so I try not to go near it.  I have no idea what Pinterest is, beyond being some sort of online mission board, which doesn't interest me.  There are streaming services for various interests, such as Discord, but I am not sure if that is the way for me to go.  I just joined my first streaming service last week, for goodness sake.  I chose the free tile, can't afford upgrading at the moment.  So far, I've only been able to find the time to watch one program.  I'm too busy with other things online.  Such as my school assignments, regular business duties, and somehow becoming a world champion level Candy Crush Saga  player.  Really.  King emailed me saying that I have achieved a level only 0.5% of player reach.  I'm not sure I believe it, but it is an ego booster
