Margaret Atwood is on Twitter.

Do you have any favorite authors that you follow on Twitter?

She's just so honest and critical of humanity. Watching interviews she'll say things like 'I do this because it's easy' instead of going on a pretentious tirade.

Oh I hope this thread takes off. I don't have a twitter so I just visit individual pages and then forget about them for five months at a time, but (good) writers usually come off pretty well on Twitter. I think that I'm so used to celebrity twitter accounts being the province of semi-literate actors and musicians who are an embarrassment when left to speak for themselves that I set a low standard.

Margaret Atwood's personal assistant is on Twitter posing as Margaret Atwood.

Are people really stupid enough to believe that an aging has-been Can-lit hack takes time to tweet?
