[Ryan Chamberlain]

Nobody's actually followed me. But, Chrishell Stause and Jen Lilley have direct messaged me.

[Mr. Vixen]

What did they say?! If you don't mind my asking.

[frequentsoapfan]

Jen Lilley is sweet when tweeting fans. I follow her and we've tweeted a few times. She seems really down to earth unlike a few stars who come off as fake or just plain don't seem to care.

I don't go on twitter much, but when Lisa Rinna tweeted me I was quite over the moon.

I haven't tweeted any soap stars but back in the day around 2002, Ali Sweeney used to post on the Lumi Second Chances forum and I was over the moon when she actually replied to one of my posts.

Someone would have to follow you to DM you.

[London]

No they don't - if you follow them they can DM you pretty much whenever. If they follow you in return then you can DM them back. If you try to DM them and they don't follow you Twitter will basically tell you that the message can't be sent since they don't follow you.

It happens all the time with me and prime time celebrities.

Lexi Ainsworth

Lexi has also DM'd me (she's a big Oklahoma City basketball fan and we tweeted back and forth a couple times during the NBA Finals).

I got a lovely tweet from Eden Riegel. She tweeted about the rejection of auditioning and I resplied with the story of a rejection I had recently gotten in...ahem...a romantic matter and she tweeted me back with a very supportive message. I've gotten some cool tweets from other actors I love but Eden's the only soaper. That said, I only follow a handful of soap actors and they're almost all from AMC.

I also got a very cool tweet from Tom Casiello. He said that he was a "fan" of mine from when he used to come here to SON and that shocked the hell out of me. Granted, I'm as guilty of PWI (posting while impaired) as anyone. However I stand by most of what I post on the internet and would have no problem saying it to people's faces. But the idea that someone who wrote for soaps actually read what I had to say and took it seriously made me feel a little vindicated as a fan. I've often said that one of the problems with soaps is that "TPTB" don't handle feedback the way primetime shows do, so it was nice to know that someone who was a member of TPTB heard what I had to say.
