Index of topics: Main Twitter Guide For Writers page. To go back to my blog for kidlit/YA writers and illustrators, see Inkygirl. You can find me on Twitter at @inkyelbows (focus: craft & biz of writing) and @DebbieOhi (chatty replies, Twitter chats).

Search the FAQ for entries containing:

If you see an 'MT' where an 'RT' usually goes, it means that the user has modified the content of a tweet.

Andrew Spong has a good explanation of why someone would want to do this. Reasons could include correcting a typo, changing a hashtag to share it with another Twitter chat community, indicating that you've added or deleted an element of the tweet.

I don't tend to use MT because I'm not sure enough people know what it means yet.
