Based on the definition in its entirety, I'd say not one tweet thus far was written by a maven. Then again, who can we really trust?

    Crimson lips, aptly overdone. White skin, aglow in eerie light. He was Maven the Clown, and no one questioned his balloon modelling. No one.

    Too many things hold interest for me, I know a little of everything, but I find myself a jack of all trades, maven of none.

    He was a twitter maven with scores of followers. But he failed to help his kid with a school essay as he couldn't write past 140 characters.

    It saddens me that for every social media maven who practices what they preach, there are two or three who are all rhetoric.

    @artwiculate: Memoir Maven--at first glance, a literary superhero, but really a crusty spinster who likes to drop in at odd hours to "bond."

    The maven had enough of his unruly, inattentive students; they were clearly unworthy of his passion. On his door, he posted "Nevermore."
