Introducing Myself! "ALOHA" from Erin Pillman ~ from Maui, Hawaii!
Aloha, Steemit Family!
I am SO thrilled to be writing this post, and to become part of this incredible community!
I am writing to you from the beautiful island of Maui, in Hawaii. I moved here in February 2014, and I absolutely love it!
From My Heart to Yours
I‘ll start by sharing a recent poem that I wrote & recorded for you. It was inspired by this bold new chapter of my life that begins now. This poem/song is about both Steemit and my blossoming, unfolding path of music. It's about taking a stand and creating a beautiful life in spite of the bizarre state of the world, even through hardship, and from a place of declaring the beginning of something new, and living it fully!
DTube exclusive: The Kings Piece - my unexpected moment of fame in the porn industry!
As a 13 year veteran of the UK porn industry I grew tired of it all towards the end and consequently started making films which pushed me creatively. Just for fun!
It just so happens that Lord Edward Davenport is a personal friend and The King's Speech production team chose to shoot the majority of this film in his rather fancy home, 33 Portland Place, Central London.
It didn't take much to persuade him to let me shoot an alternative porn version of the original film using very similar shots and even similar words and plot line.
He loved the idea and so it was...
One Sunday afternoon I called together my team and created this film. 
Yoyow the Chinese version of Steemit coming soon!
YOYOW will use a transparent accounting system POF (proof-of-flow) to reward content creators and communicators, to provide content display of third-party platform will be rewarded; the same time, YOYOW support direct play and other ways.
This means within no time this platform will open in China, i repeat, it will open in China.
Let's say if only 1% of the population of China will join that platform, then imagine how the price would be for the YOYOW coin?
How to sculpt a ruin miniature base from scratch!
Today I want to show you how I sculpted this little base. I will try to explain it step by step so everyone can easily give it a try if they want to. I will do a second tutorial on how to paint one of these after we've sculpted it. This will be a part of my next big project which I will give updates on regularly and most likely do tutorials on everything I do or at least a step by step posts. It will be some Evil Dwarfs, models from different manufacturers - starting next week with some models from Scibor (Amazing studio for miniatures.. check it out! They are master pieces!).
This is the second tutorial in a series of portrait sketching tutorials for complete beginners. You can read the first part here:
Tutorial #1: Pencil Portrait Sketching for Complete Beginners - SBD Reward for Three Best Sketches. In the previous tutorial I talked about the materials you need, the reference image and also drawing the grid lines and the outline of the face. However, I realized that many newbies (myself included) often struggle to draw a proper outline of the face. This is perfectly normal and to be expected. If you think the task is a bit daunting I decided to include a brief tutorial on how to outline the facial features. You can draw exactly the way I drew it feature by feature. Just make sure that you draw exactly the outline of the feature you see on every square. 
IBook, School and Me, Part Two
Reading is a complex thought process or also referred to as active activity. Guidance and the development of interest in reading students can not be separated from the coaching ability of students in reading, because to be a person of interest must be able to read. This can be seen from the various number of activities. Starting from understanding the words or sentences written by the author, inter prate the author's concepts, and conclude it.
While reading interest is a strong impetus to a person to read that is indicated by showing interest in various symbols and symbols. Reading interest in each child is different, some are reluctant to read, some are interested in reading because the book will be read many unique pictures, or read because it is forced if there is a task or a test course.
To overcome and foster interest in reading students, then there must be motivation from the students themselves and motivation from outside. Both motivations must be balanced and mutually supportive of each other, in order to increase student's interest in reading.
