I’ve been playing all week with Gmail’s signature feature using Greasemonkey and a new HTML Signature script. Basically, it lets my emails have a different personality based on which address I’m using. I wear many hats on the internet, so this sort of thing appeals to me.
My many hats include the blogger hat, the author hat, the promo ho hat, the webmaster hat, and the reader hat.
The Blogger
Every day, I bring you the latest and greatest in my life, hot off the presses. I’m kind of a journalist that way, though the headlines are easy to hunt down when they’re all mine.
The Author
I maintain a web presence for my many (snort) fans so that you’ll know what I’ve written and what’s coming up.
The Promo Ho
I teach other eBook authors how to market for free or cheap on the internet. Hey, I gotta learn it anyway, so I might as well share. For people who are new to marketing and/or the internet, eBook marketing can be daunting!
The Webmaster
I keep my local writers’ group website updated and running smoothly– and with so many authors wearing their author hats and promoting their patoots off via the website, sometimes it’s not too easy!
The Reader
Finally, I get to settle down and share with my other reader friends what books I’m enjoying (or not enjoying, rarely). This is one of my favorite parts because I read a lot of books based on recommendations, so I like to sort of pay it forward for other people looking for a good book.
What hats do you wear on the internet or elsewhere?
