It’s February 2013, and CanadaWrites issued this challenge to the Twitterverse: \u00ab\u00a0We’ve been looking at the art of self-promotion this month, and thought we would have some fun with a tongue-in-cheek look at how fabulous we are.\u00a0\u00bb<\/p>\n

CanadaWrites counted over 1,000 tweets in response to the challenge, with a selection of all-stars here<\/a>, of which I humbly number, with the following:<\/p>\n
