We can't wait for our chat with John on June 16. (Seriously. It's like a giddy, pre-prom feeling. We only hope our curling iron doesn't get stuck in our hair. Again.)
If you've never used Twitter before, here's how to do it in three easy steps:
1. First, create a Twitter account if you don’t have one already. It’s easy and free, and all you need is an e-mail address.
2. Log onto Twitter at 6 p.m. Pacific, 9 p.m. Eastern on June 16.
3. Type @realjohngreen plus your question, followed by #rgz. This asks John your question and funnels it into the readergirlz chat stream.
To follow along the chat, go here (the #rgz Twitter stream).
Going forward, you’ll be able to follow rgz and lots of your favorite authors on Twitter. You can find us and everyone we follow here: http://twitter.com/readergirlz
Questions? Post them in the comments and we'll take care of you.

This is sooooo helpful, Martha. Thank you!
Debbie Ridpath Ohi (@inkyelbows) has a great article on Twitter chats for writers that would also be helpful for chatting folks to check out:

Thanks, Lorie Ann and Greg.
1pm my time :( But hopefully I will be able to see some results at some point . . .
yay! Very excited! Especially that JG being featured coincides with Pride Month!
Thanks for the (very necessary) review, Martha. And thanks for the additional info, Gregory K. I'll definitely check that out.
Thanks for chatting with us, John!
