I am not on Instagram. I think social media drains you of energy and it can be quite time consuming. Just deactivate the account for a month and you will see the result. Social media is too much to take and counter-productive, as well.Vishal Bheeroohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18229153100959064360noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6083612851716281896.post-50199104745441254452017-03-17T08:13:13.876-07:002017-03-17T08:13:13.876-07:00I was on 25 social sites when my 5-book series fir...I was on 25 social sites when my 5-book series first started coming out.

I've cut back on social media quite a bit as it does cut too much into writing/editing time.Cherie Reichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16663147386014122939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6083612851716281896.post-17330745794578560192017-03-17T07:06:15.729-07:002017-03-17T07:06:15.729-07:00I'm using Facebook less and less, sans Messeng...I'm using Facebook less and less, sans Messenger. I don't use Twitter a whole lot anymore, and my blog mostly just gets posts as required for class. I would (hopefully) post occasionally if I didn't have to post once a week for class though. That being said, I still don't get a large amount of writing done, often. I have experienced and understand how social media can sap all of your time.Patrick Stahlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09690555802232025818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6083612851716281896.post-36232318870249428292017-03-17T05:41:23.051-07:002017-03-17T05:41:23.051-07:00I blog and I'm on Goodreads, that's it.

But otherwise, I don't know how people keep up with so many. I keep up with blogs and Twitter and my Google+ just kind of sits there.Alex J.

Now I really want to get on Facebook more but can't because of reading the blogs I do for my own blog. I think lots of people just schedule posts for things like Twitter without really interacting to be on so many sites.Natalie Aguirrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03756087804171246660noreply@blogger.com
