Top Ten Tuesday: Authors I Wish Were On Social Media (Classics Edition!)

Happy Tuesday!! This week’s Top Ten Tuesday topic (hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl) is to share ten authors that have a fun social media presence. However, I don’t really follow many authors on social media these days. Instead, I’m going to share ten authors of classics that I wish could have been on social media back when they were alive. What interesting, witty, hilarious remarks they would have typed!

What do you think of my list? Which authors do you wish could have been on social media when they were alive? Let me know in the comments section below!

Yours,

HOLLY

    Love this! And yes to all of them! I would add Edith Wharton, who I could see posting very shocking, but smart things on Twitter. 😉

    I can just imagine how delightful Oscar Wilde’s social media would have been–a wildly opinionated Twitter & a raunchy Instagram, I’m sure, hahaha.

    I’d have loved to see Rilke’s Instagram, particularly, because I feel like it would just be soft-focus photos of books and rainy windows.
