Hello Steemit community, I'm Wendy, and my cats think I'm a pretty big deal (when they want food). I'm a freelance web designer, video creator and aspiring parody writer. Prior to that, I had a niche in Flash development when it was still relevant. I joined Steemit as a way to connect with others and to have a place to share content I create.
Since disease has no face that one can punch, content creation and online social connections are the way I fight against the ever changing symptoms and anxiety about the future that comes with having multiple sclerosis (RR-MS). Creating content from my home office gives me the flexibility I need to stay productive despite mounting life obstacles due to the disease, and creating funny content helps me stay strong. I'm also bi-ploar and have other health issues, so clearly I won the genetic lottery - unfortunately I cannot exchange these amazing "genetic lottery" winnings for blockchain currency, so I do hope to eventually earn a few bucks on here creating content. That is, if what I put out here doesn't suck.
Currently outside of Steemit, I am the creator of the Green Bay Sausage, a fun little Facebook video niche which parodies the Green Bay City Council as well as other politicians with horrible voiced over comedy. I also run the Tandy 1000 SX YouTube page, which focuses on vintage Radio Shack products as well as game play and MS-DOS tutorials recorded directly from old Tandy computers. I also have a background in writing and was a published and paid teen journalist in my local paper by the age of 16, though I enjoy writing rants and comedy more than articles.
Though I can't say for sure what kind of specific content creation I will focus on in the Steemit community until I learn the ropes here, here's a list of a few topics I am interested in:
Politics
Medical Marijuana
Cats
Generation X
Learning How To Levitate
Video Games
Rigid Training For Power Napping
Vintage Computers & Gaming
Doctor Who
80's/90's Pop Culture
Nerdy Stuff
I also plan on checking out D-Tube for video publishing.
The photo I have attached for my introduction is a few years old, but I think it sums up the essence of my being. :)
