Last month I gained like 800 followers. This month I gained 82 "new" people and lost 34. The key difference? I asked for no DMs and no flirting. There's got to be a way for women creatives to develop a robust social network without flirting, right? ...right??

When someone follows me, I vet them. I read their bio, check follower count, account creation year, skim their posts, replies, and likes. If any of that gives me red flags of being a bot, a bigot, a perv, or a problem for me, I block. Occasionally they impress me & I follow back.
