I couldn't see why not - everyone can get some kind of great use with twitter! Books and authors are tweeted a lot, and great authors would definitely round up a nice following.

I am using twitter and I love it, for some reasons that it gives back money :)

As a book marketer, I use Twitter every day to pass along marketing tips and industry news to the authors who work with me. It allows for quick updates and I can quickly pass along useful links.

Twitter is my favorite. It lets me connect all aspects of my business in one place.

It does help us to relate person to person and I think lots of people are looking for that.
