I just recently did this but now that I know I wish I had done it sooner. Like any social media website you need a solid bio that explains who you are, what you do and what your into. When on Twitter you need to do this in 160 characters or less which makes it a bit more difficult. So how do you write a solid bio in less than 160 characters? Well besides keeping it short be simple. Use a word or two to describe what you do and use hashtags to connect yourself to that group of people. Shorten and customize a link to your book or site using bit.ly and put it there. Add other to background space. People always want to add links but if they're too long they take up space and besides, if you keep it short and link a spot to your website people can just read about you there.
So keep it short and sweet, make use of the space you have, use hashtags and @'s, keep links short, put anything you can't fit in your bio such as links in your background and make sure your picture is of you and not that stupid egg thing Twitter gives you.
