Got spammed by a writer this morning on Twitter. The fellow isn't someone I follow, so he made sure it popped up into my queue by putting "@scalzi" at the front, followed by a generic plug for his book and a link to the page he made for the book. Given that the vast majority of the "@" messages to me on Twitter are by people who follow me and/or are clearly responding to me or at least talking about me, this generic spammy message stood out, not in a good way.
Writer or Spambot?
