    I will have my article posted by tonight. I am confused about the part of the directions which say to “tweet/promo the event with #Villains2017.” What does this mean? Please forgive me for my ignorance in this matter. I am not on Twitter, but my friend Promise Pope represents the Pure Entertainment Preservation Society on Twitter. Can she tweet/promo for me? Thank you for your help. I remain,

    Yours Hopefully,
