Since Christmas, I’ve been posting my works (some of the same ones on this blog) to Prose, a social media app that takes what’s best about Facebook and Twitter and Instagram – having followers (“friends”) and getting your posts liked or reposted – and applies those networking techniques to the profession of writing. Recently I’ve become a Partner, a promotion that allows me to create Prose-wide challenges, boost others’ work to the Spotlight (the front-page), and monetize my books on the site. Mostly, however, it prints the word “Partner” beneath my username, which is kind of cool.
