With 328 million active accounts, it seems almost everyone has a Twitter account these days. Perhaps Shakespeare’s character Polonius was on to something when he stated, “Brevity is the soul of wit,” because—even limited to 240 characters or fewer—some tweets can be pretty clever and funny. As the summer heats up, the social media experts here at Writer’s Relief have imagined the latest vacation tweets from some of our favorite literary characters.

While we’ve imagined these literary characters on vacation, not every fictional protagonist is having a day at the beach. So if you’re dealing with a bad case of writer’s block or your latest story came back from the proofreader covered in red-pen edits, remember: There are also literary characters who are having a worse day than you. #Smile!
