Abstract: This paper examines how social media has reshaped literary form and narrative voice in the digital age. Digital platforms such as Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok have not only changed how readers engage with text, but also how writers compose it, distribute it, and perform identity through language. Through an analysis of emergent hybrids — micro-fiction, serialized poetry, hashtag narratives, and performative self-styling — this essay argues that social media functions as both a literary medium and a site of identity negotiation. Key concerns include the compression of language, the cultivation of persona, the rise of participatory genres, and the tensions between authenticity and algorithmic visibility. Drawing on theoretical perspectives from media studies and narratology, this paper shows that social media’s influence extends beyond form into the ethics of reading, authorship, and community.
