How to engage followers on my social media sites?
Having decided to write posts on my tumblr site, to link to my Facebook page, and other social media, i am going to write short posts about writing techniques relating them to my tale/s by illustrating some character trait or plot theme moment. This would provide not only some insight into the skills involved in writing stories, but also reveal some vital glimpses as to what my book's characters will be getting up to, drama wise.
Does this seem like a good way, to try and engage those who visit my page? And should I try to illustrate my tale by images, photos and text, off the net, that expresses similar scenes as I am writing about in this tale. Would that be alluring and should I just keep to these themes and not stray from them by placing posts and images etc other than those related to my theme, no matter how interesting or humorous they may be?

As an afterthought, I wonder if this is something your fiverr social media expert might be equipped to handle?
If you want to use images you haven't created yourself, somewhere like http://www.freeforcommercialuse.net is a good place to start looking. Always credit the photographer / designer if they've asked you to.
I take my own – it's often quicker than searching for a suitable one and I don't have any copyright problems to worry about.
