  1. Thank you for including me in your list! It’s an honor to be among such amazing people. Glad to know someone enjoys my schizophrenic tweets. I only hope I can live up to being an inspiration…or to making people laugh. I am but an egg.

    …so, um, is it okay now to ask for your help in spreading the word about supporting the Houston Area Women’s Center at Twestival Houston September 13? 😉 @twesth

  2. Holly, thank you so much for including me on this list – like Grace I feel honored to be included in with such a great group! And thank you too for your contribution to the Houston Social Media crowd – always enjoy your tweets and updates!
