There was an old man that always wanted to be a writer. Then he heard about this amazing place called Steemit where people get paid to create good content. He decided to give it a go and he worked really hard... But more than anything, he tried to be a good Steemit citizen. When someone was in trouble, he gave as much as he could to help out.
But Steemit changed... it got taken over by rich guys that manipulated prices so only they could make money. It was also taken over by spammers, scammers and beggars.
This guy was stupid enough to believe he could write a book... so he worked really hard, taking time to go to his feed to upvote his friends and other good content. He put in 20 hours over two days hoping to get ahead so he could work on the book... He asked for a little help and support from the Steemit community- what an idiot. They laughed at him, and then kicked him in the teeth... They awarded him $4.95 for 8 straight hours of hard work.
I still have a couple of Chapters written- I might as well get my $5.00 for them before I power down!
