Consistency
It has been 30 days since I have joined Steemit, so I thought I would do a post appreciating all the achievements. Shoutout to for recruiting me to steemit.
Every day, I managed to write and post a poem. Furthermore, I have been postinga weekly video of Spoken Word. Watch my latest video: When You're Gay
Ocassionally, I write some book reviews. So far I have reviewed four seperate books. Moreover, in the past two weeks, I have been writing a #freewrite almost everyday. This has been a wonderful experience. As a writer, I love the opportunity to step outside my comfort zone, and the #weekendfreewrite definitely does that! My latest freewrite is a very emotional short-story, A Miserable Life.
Contests
As part of my growth plan, I have taken part in multiple contests, and have placed and won rewards with the following posts:
I had also won a 100 SP delegation for just one week; which was extremely helpful! Thank again, .
My poem, The Puppeteer was Snekked by on her return of her curation project, You Got SNEKKED! Curation 02-02-2018.
The book review forTrainride Elsewhere (A Poetry Collection) was curated by on her THE LIBRARY #2: A New Curation Post for Reader and Writers.
Through comments and a kind host, I won a game, Offworld Trading Company, organised by .
Communities
I found home in a lot of discord communities, including:
- Steemit Poets United
- The Isle of Write
- You Got Snekked!
- Die Hard Steemit
- Block Chain Poets
- Steemit's LGBT
- The Writer's Block
From other social media, I have managed to snatch and
, and introduced them to Steemit. I have also attempted to introduce new steemians via the #ians intiative. Last week's post, Introducing a New Steemian: trashie-beeaaa did not leave much payout; but I hope my future posts will be able to help the community more!
I have become a great part of Steemit Poets United, and have become part of the curators. Furthermore we will start organising contests! There is no greater way than to give back what I have earned. If you are interested, you might want to voice your opinions in the last few hours of Steemit Poets United: Poetry contest (Suggestions & Feedback Required). As part of SPU, I also started a weekly curation project. The most recent one is the Best Poetry of the Week - Week #2.
Thanks to the hard work, I have also been awarded the Most Active Member of Steemit Poets United two weeks in a row! The announcement of SPU: Most Active Member Week 3 has notified that to allow room for more winners, nobody will be able to win three times in a row. Hopefully, this encourages others to engage and become more active!
Commitment
There are more achievements and minor accomplishments which I probably have forgotten or left out. On that note, my summary of totaly Steem earnings is: 45 STEEM in my first 30 days! Actually, that is only up to the payouts received so far (including SBD that is yet to be transferred and powered up). Thank you all to those that have made this a great experience! Looking for many more active months on Steemit!
I have big plans for the future, starting in March, but you have to stay tuned for those updates!
