STOP HIDING YOUR LIGHT UNDER A BUSHEL, START TWEETING

           One of the reasons many of us are so late in blooming is that we have been hiding our light under that parabolical bushel for way too long.

        

        Yes, I know that social networking has its dark side, but creative late bloomers should welcome the chance to toot their own horn, as my mother would have put it. That's why I've started to tweet. My handle on Twitter is @creativebloomer.

    The only thing you have to lose is a lengthy word count: Twitter only allows you 140 characters per tweet.

     (This post, BTW, exceeded the Twitter limit by 346.)
