Hi ! WOW!! To date, is the BEST POST anyone has ever written on Hive about Creative Work Hour. I'm a softy, as you already know. So it may come as no surprise that I became rather leaky last night when I read it.
and I are so grateful for your kind words of encouragement.
Because of the exquisite timing of your surprise gift 💝of an unsolicited testimonial, I decided that now is the time to merge our two Discord servers into one. Did you know that CWH is about to celebrate it's 5-year anniversary? I've only been on Hive for 4 years. This means, as I described in my first HiveFest talk in Rosarito, Mexico, that I onboarded to Hive, rather than the conventional way the communities are built on the chain.
As a result, our original Discord predates our Hive activity. Last year, when I was in hospital following my accident, thinking I wouldn't get to attend HiveFest in Kuala Lampur, much less speak at the event that we sponsored, I thought I'd try an experiment and start a CWH specific Discord for active Hive users. This server attracted Hive hot-shots like
and
, to honour a few.
This server has been as experiment—a good one, at that! But I learned that my brain doesn't wanna handle two Discords that really serve the same purpose, which is to provide a community first, Hive forward, daily creative space where the crew feel like we genuinely care about the experience and outcome of their creative work. So,
Chris, thank you! You have inspired me to merge the two Discords (okay, I don't know how I'll do that just yet 😂) But if you or someone you know can help me with this merging of old & new Discords, that would be stellar! 🌟 I'd rather have one nicer car than two work cars. Ya know what I mean?
Kudos to you for so beautifully writing and illustrating in this ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ post for the crew. We ❤️ ya for it, as it will help other Hivians find us and have more fun making stuff for themselves and for Hive.
That's it for now, but I bet I'll see you in a few hours in our live session. 😉
Much love! ❤️
Ps I'm sorry I missed seeing you yesterday. I was at Ambiente-Leeds at a Cava tasting of the sparkling & still wines of Vilarnau. I was thinking not only of #hodalicante and the amazing time we had there, but also looking forward to 11 coming in September to Barcelona. I'm hoping there's a good chance you might join us in Catalonia. 🙏🏽
