April's Teen Book Chat

Because last week's chat didn't happen, there's going to be a make-up chat this Monday.  Our fourth chat of the year will take place Monday, April 14 on Twitter at 8:00 PM Eastern Time. The first hour of the chat, we'll discuss the four questions, one every fifteen minutes. For the last half an hour, we'll just have an open chat relating to the topic or other things YA books. Don't forget to use the hashtag #TBkChat to keep in the chat. February's topic is: Author Connections.

The questions are:
Q1 If you really enjoy a book, do you try to connect with the author?  If so, where to you look for them?  Website, twitter, FB, ect.?
Q2  Do you think authors use social media enough?  Do they make use of all the resources at their disposal?
Q3 Do you think authors feel they can do less book tours/meet ups because of the internet?  Is this a good or bad thing?
Q4 What are things you wished authors did more or less of in their efforts to connect with their fan base?

Please comment, tweet about, share, blog about, ect this chat. If you have a blog, grab the button HTML in the sidebar. If you know a few YA lovers who'd be interested, send them this link. The more people involved, the better! Leave a comment it you have any questions.
Thank you for reading.
