I found freelance journalist Alissa Walker's Twitter feed (@GelatoBaby). Though I'm not very familiar with her work (she's written articles for magazines like Details), I was instantly drawn to her Twitter because it's much funnier and more realistic than many of the other writers I encountered, who seemed to be self-promoting with every tweet and never really saying much. I think that Alissa uses Twitter in a very effective way, because she allows her followers to get a glimpse of her personality and personal life while still promoting the articles she's written and the events she's taking part in.
I also found Creative Nonfiction magazine's Facebook, which they use mainly to promote their magazine and what's going on in the world of nonfiction. It says, " Its objectives are to provide a venue, the journal Creative Nonfiction, for high quality nonfiction prose (memoir, literary journalism, personal essay)". They also post nonfiction events, new work releases, and other nonfiction news.
