Since many of these tweeps deal in multiple areas of expertise, I'm not going to use your typical categories. Instead, I'm going to use my own dynamic and weird categorizations.
While I'm sure there are many more tweeps who are worth your time on Twitter, these are the ones who I endorse fully. They're my "must-follows" and a great springboard into wonderful conversations, information, and more.

Great lists! If you ever create a list for tweeps "you should meet soon" - hope I'm on it! :)
Hey not Bob -- I'm honored to be on the list. One name I want to add is yourself!
Honored to have made the list! Thank you.
Yeah Robert! Add yourself to the awesome :) thanks for including me. Sibling rivalry press is going to do a reading at hr Decatur library April 28th. Hope you can stop by then for reals!
Hey, Robert. I think this whole list totally rocks. Thanks for including me! I feel like we have met, too. :)
One day I to will be on a list like this..
Very useful.. thank you..xx
Flash Fiction Chronicles wants to be on your list, Robert! We're off to follow you and step up our game.
We did so meet...on the phone, anyway. Thanks for including me! Great list.
Why am I not on this list? haha
Great list, thanks! I'm actually surprised I do not know at least a third of those listed. Looks like I'm going to be having fun checking them out this weekend!

Great list--thanks! Going to tweet it now...
Wow--what a wonderful way to end the week. Thank you, Robert! But I hope that one day we'll meet in real life! ;-) Thanks again from @erikadreifus!
Robert
Thanks for posting me on your list! I met not only you but part of your adorable family, too. Your reading really rocked, too. Much thanks. Now I intend to check out this list.

Great list!
When you create a "Tweeps With An Online Magazine," please consider me (www.pressonwebzine.com. Thanks :>)
Wow, Robert, thank you for including me in your list. It's nice to know somebody knows I exist even if sometimes I'm not so sure myself.
Totally stunning! Truly honored!

Thanks, everyone, for either commenting or being on my list or sharing my list or all (or some) of the above!
The real question is... HOW have we not actually met?
Wow! I'm honored to be on your list!
No, Laurel, the real question is WHEN will we actually meet. I'm sure it'll happen eventually.
K.M., thanks for your great tweets and blog!
One more to follow: @KatMeyer (who would probably fit under the guru category)
Hey Robert I'm a tweep you've met recently @poetlip and I suppose you can list me under a new catagory: groupie. It's great to see we have tweeps in common like Hope Clark. Thanks for your blogs, poetry column in the WD magazine, and prompts. They keep me writing.
Hi Robert,
I found your blog and this great post by way of The Practicing Writer. I'm wondering if you have created a twitter list with all of these included that we could simply follow?
Thanks.
Lené
Thanks for making the list with links! I'm delighted to see I follow many of these lovely tweeps already. Hope I make the list one day. :)
Hi I'm Ken K. Chartrand- author of the werewolf story,"The Lupine Effect". It features a man,his fiancée,his family, a wolf pack, a werewolf, a vampire or two, love and adventure. See a sample at Amazon.com
Great list!
Thanks again for this, RLB. :)
Thank you so much for posting these lists !
Solid list. Thanks!
Your posts are ALWAYS so incredibly helpful! Thanks so much!
I love the lists. And the nudge to sharpen up my profile and background was very welcome.
Stimulated by the increase of Tweet followers this week and by the desire to reach out to other writers, I've followed about a dozen of those mentioned on this list. Thanks for the connections!
