# Twitter Stories starts in Portland

You may have seen announcements about [Twitter](http://twitter.com "Twitter")‘s new “Twitter Stories” campaign—an interesting way of showcasing the power of a tweet.

But what you may not have noticed (I didn’t) was that the first story features a Portland company. Tune in to find out [how a tweet saved Broadway Books in Northeast Portland](http://stories.twitter.com/en/1/aaron_durand.html "Aaron Durand saved his mom's bookstore with a Tweet.").

For more, read the [Twitter Stories blog post](http://stories.twitter.com/en/1/aaron_durand.html "Aaron Durand saved his mom's bookstore with a Tweet.") or simply follow @twitterstories to get the latest and greatest.
