<p>Hi friends,</p>
<p>In my intro I managed that I co-host #LinkYourLife on Twitter and Facebook every Friday. Today is Friday! I'd love to see you there. It's about actually getting to know who we are interacting with online. If you do link up, make sure to let me know you are here so I can find you and connect on this platform!</p>

<p>Here's the pitch from <a href="http://honeyquill.com/2015/04/20/linkyourlife/">the original announcement</a>. (We've grown a lot in a year.) </p>
<p><strong>Let’s meet up every Friday to link our lives, share each other’s work, and form more lasting social media connections.</strong> Online connections can be glancing. Let’s get personal.</p>
<h3><strong>What you should link:</strong></h3>
<ol>
<li><strong>Who you are, what you do, and a piece of work (blog, publication, poem, story, whatever) that you feel best represents you.</strong></li>
<li><strong>Work by others that you believe best captures who they are, or pieces by others that speak to your own life experience. Tell why.</strong></li>
<li><strong>Non-pornographic images</strong> that capture a moment in your life.</li>
<li><strong>One or two of your own posts.</strong> Choose what is most important to you that day or week. Our group has grown significantly, so let’s be sure we share the space. It’s fine to repost your chosen link throughout the day to be sure we all have a chance to see it.</li>
<li><strong>Share work from friends.</strong></li>
<li><strong>Follow and tag your co-hostesses </strong><a href="https://twitter.com/shawnamawna"><strong>@shawnamawna</strong></a><strong>and </strong><a href="https://twitter.com/ShareenM"><strong>@ShareenM</strong> </a><strong>on Twitter.</strong></li>
<li><a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/linkyourlife"><strong>Join the Facebook group #LinkYourLife Connection</strong></a> and share there throughout the week.</li>
<li><strong>#LinkYourCompassion with</strong> <a href="https://twitter.com/search?f=tweets&vertical=default&q=%23LinkYourLife&src=typd"><strong>the #LinkYourLife community</strong></a> <strong>the first Friday of every month. </strong></li>

</ol>
<p>Be sure to retweet generously, but the goal of this hashtag share is to read and discover, so read work first. Get to know your Twitter community. Take your connections further than an RT. Link your lives off the page.</p>
