HORROR CHAT
Every Wednesday, Vamplit Publishing hosts Humpday Horrorchat, a way for us all to share our favorite things about horror while tweeting on Twitter.
Humpday Horrorchat is open to everyone whether you are a writer, publisher, film maker, artist, gamer, magazine or just someone who loves horror. Remember this is a fun and promotional chat. Feel free to invite your friends across Twitter to join our chats.
HOW TO PARTICIPATE
1. Every Tuesday we’ll post the current week’s and the following week’s topic.
**If you’d like to suggest a topic, comment on the current week’s topic post and it’ll get added to the list of future topics.
2. All day Wednesday on Twitter, starting 12:00 A.M. GMT and ending 11:59 P.M. Pacific time, tweet your answers, comments and replies to other participants on the topic. Make sure you include:
- #humpday #horrorchat in your responses so other chat participants can find the chat tweets (on longer tweets, include #horrorchat at a minimum)
- short links to websites, videos and other stuff related to the topic. Promotions for your works (literature, films, artwork, magazines, games, etc.) and friend’s work are welcome and expected
If you don’t use Twitter, you can also participate on our Facebook page.
3. Search for ‘horrorchat’ and/or ‘humpday’ to find other members chatting on the topic and comment on their responses using @ mentions.
TIPS FOR TRACKING THE CHAT
- Try using TweetChat to view the combined conversation. Enter ‘horrorchat’ in the search criteria or go directly to http://tweetchat.com/room/horrorchat. You can join the conversation from TweetChat as well.
- On Twitter, search for horrorchat and save the search. This makes it easy to switch between @ mentions and your search. You can also expand the tweets to the right using the arrow button and see all the replies to a particular tweet much easier than provided in TweetChat. Need specific directions, click here.
4. On Thursday we dump all the tweets from HashParty into the bottom of the current week’s horror chat so you can check out anything you might have missed.
If you have any questions, please post them to the comments on the current week’s chat post. It will help us improve our directions for future chatters.
