Back several months ago, when I was fairly new to Twitter, I began posting spoof astrology forecasts under the hashtag #LukeyStars. I saw people already doing something similar at the time (the most popular being @horrorsc0pes) and I thought about having a go.
Initially, I began firing them out on the way to work on a daily basis, all the way from Aries to Pisces, then realised it may be better (and to help assure quality over quantity) to put these out on a weekly basis.
This was at a time where I didn't have many followers, and unfortunately, it wasn't very popular. Favourites/Retweets were scant, if at all. I lost interest and #LukeyStars disappeared from popular view.
A friend of mine, who also uses Twitter, was probably my best fan and has asked when #LukeyStars is coming back. I've postulated over this and thought about the best way to resurrect it.
What I have noticed is that people tend to have their own account for general goofing around/serious stuff and seperate @s for themed comedy tweets. So, if I were to bring #LukeyStars back, it might work better with a separate account.
Yesterday, I set up @LukeyStars to post astrology tweets, which I could RT from my main account to popularise. I could promote the account through other means too.
I'm going to bring back when I originally intended to do - regular tweets, on a weekly basis, and try to keep it fresh, original and with the aim to raise a few laughs.
Let's see where this goes.
