Hello! I am delighted to share that I have changed my Instagram handle from @likesoatmeal (which was the Twitter handle I chose for myself back ca. 2010) to @aliciadelosreyes.writer –hooray!
Every time I’ve shared a writing-related post or tagged a writer or other professional account, I’ve felt slightly silly. (What does “likesoatmeal” even mean??) Pushing the little button that changed it to @aliciadelosreyes.writer felt good.
Are you on Instagram? Is your handle as old as mine? When I first got on, I had the option to choose my own name with no “extras”!
If you’re on Instagram, come find me!
