I've decided to put my name in the hat because I LOVE upvoting, it's like spreading love. My lack of SP often cramps my style. Having a bit more voting weight would make my evening reading through steemit posts so much more enjoyable.
I would put the extra steem power to good use because I LOVE clicking the upvote button after reading something GREAT! The only problem is that my vote is so tiny and I run out of voting juice so quickly! I love supporting my treasured groups (
I try to post every single day. I do upvote and comment frequently even when I don't post. I don't really keep track, have a system or pattern that I am aware of. I just follow my heart and go with the flow.
I used to post every single day. It's not quite as frequent lately but for good reason (I think). I also think in general I am a participator and good sport. There's a lot of effort that goes into building engagement and I'll step up to support that effort as much as I possibly can.
This happened because of
and her tin foil hatter call to action
When we thought we had recorded an entire video on how to make mayonnaise from scratch and ended up with just this still of me scratching my nose. I never did get that video made.
My writing is not always daily anymore because ...
I've been challenging myself when it comes to writing and blogging, upping my game so to speak. I've been doing more research, listing references and tuning and tweaking my writing. Often it takes me 8+ hours of (writing, research, cooking, creating, photography, and so on) to get one post completed and that's when everything goes right. A recent post 'How To Make Flavoured Sugar (With Recipes)' would probably equate to 16 hours of billable hours (ha! If only!)
Sometimes I have to go back to the drawing board because the images are wrong, the flavours are wrong ... or it just completely flops. I've challenged myself to push harder and writer better, crate something special, so that's what I am working on. It's all about continually challenging ourselves and growing.
That said, not all of my work is going to be like this!!
once in a while I will just spew out something that's in my head that I just need to get out. These unstructured posts can reveal a lot about the "real me" behind the blog. The shy, geeky, all about love, super tall, long legged, clumsy, green eyed, tree hugging, free bird, that seeks to connect with others on a deeper level than what has become insta-possible these days. These rough posts are the "me" that you'd meet in person. I think.
I think I've gone off track a bit! :)
My point is, I have pretty high standards (I think) and look for quality posts, that show that time, effort and heart has been invested in creating them. I want to learn something new. Feel deep emotions. Be drawn into the story. Witness something cool happening. I would love a little bit more juice to boost people up and encourage them to keep working hard and contributing meaningful content.
