Twitter, I’m sorry I ever doubted you as a tool to connect people. What an amazing response from the this new community of online friends and well-wishers today, after Alicia’s story was picked up by a gentleman named Drew.
Why a blog/Twitter account/Facebook page? April 16, 2010
I’d like to take a moment to address some questions about why Alicia’s family and friends have put together this site/are Tweeting about it/have set up a Facebook page.
Firstly, I want to reassure everyone that this endeavor is not only blessed and but encouraged by the Parlettes, especially Alicia. She has wanted to get back to writing and sharing her life and story with the audience who had expressed so much interest and engagement with her Chronicle series for some time. The response from the online community has been overwhelmingly positive – notes of love, friendship, inspiration, hope, joy, etc. – I think this interest in her story made Alicia want to share more about her hope, struggle, and faith.
