Introduction

Holy Hash Tags, Batman!

I have to say that of all my various blog posts about writing, publishing, romance, novels, query letters, agents, Facebook, Twitter and social media COMBINED, my most popular posts are hands down anything I write about freakin’ hash freakin’ tags!!!!

What I find in the comments section, on Twitter and in private emails, however, is that while folks are more than happy to learn how to use hash tags, or even when, what they really, really, REALLY want is sample hash tags to use; right now, today.

It’s kind of like the old Dragnet line: “Just the hash tags, ma’am!”

Conclusion:

So there you have it; 167 Hash Tags for Romance Authors.

Basically, I use this document as a kind of “copy and paste” template that I keep on my desktop at all times. So if I’m tweeting something about ePublishing; boom, I just refer to the top five or six “ePub” hash tags and away I go.

Of course, I’m continually updating this list. In fact, this very eBook started out as 101 Hash Tags for Romance Authors – I even had the cover designed with that number and everything – and just kept on growing.

Even now, as I’m writing these words, I happened to check the #xoxo hash tag for relevance and found two more: #romancenovel and #bookcover!

In fact, pretty much every time I click on a new hash tag, I find two or three more; try it and see for yourself.

So definitely you should see this list as a growing, living, fertile thing; just like everything you do in social media, when it comes to hash tags change is a constant and growth a necessity!
