Why Pinterest is Useful for Writers
Last week, I shared a few inspiring quotes from one of my Pinterest boards. In case you’re not familiar with Pinterest, here’s how it works. It’s a virtual bulletin board, where with a click of a button, you can “pin” images from all over the web. Your profile can have as many boards as you want, and they can fit any theme. Want a place to store all those cat photos you love? Create a board. My boards include: home & design, inspiring words, DIY projects, recipes, and writing office inspiration.

Still not sure if Pinterest is for you? Here’s why it’s useful for writers:

*Connect with other writers. With all of the other social networks out there, nobody needs another one. But if you follow other writers’ boards, you can see the images they post and repin the ones that inspire you.
In a nutshell, if you like visual inspiration while writing, you should check out Pinterest! Right now it’s invitation-only so if you’d like an invite, leave your email in the comments (or email me at ghenetwrites[at]gmail[dot]com) and I’ll invite you.
Are you on Pinterest? Happy pinning!
p.s. I have no affiliation with Pinterest. I just love their site and wanted to share!
