June edition Good Reading Magazine |
I was responding to a subscriber (Liz) who wrote to the magazine in April to express her disappointment as follows:
As one of the first subscribers to GR I am really disappointed with the reliance on and reference to Facebook all the time.
For many reasons I have refused to join Facebook. It's beginning to seem as if I must. But I won't! Do any other readers feel the same? I am not behind the times. I just know that Facebook is not right for me.
I am sure many other readers feel the same. I guess there are valid reasons for Facebook being part of Good Reading, but they elude me.
I couldn't let this letter go unanswered, and you can read my reply below:
Carpe Librum!
Facebook is a love it or hate it proposition for lots of people. It's frustrating when it's the only avenue for interaction, but at least it offers some.
ReplyDeleteThanks Shelleyrae.
ReplyDeleteWay to go! You've hit a number of good reasons for Facebook and convinced me that I should be on it more often!
ReplyDeleteThat's a nice surprise, thanks Ms. M, glad to hear it :-)
