This post is in response to the Steem Monsters giveaway posted by here
As a former musician myself, if one could be such a thing (former musician); I completely understand why giving away the collection is something of interest. While I can't say I'm wildly passionate about — especially compared to many of the other big collectors here — I can say my son Joseph is. He'll be 9 this coming July.
I've been trying to work hand over fist to get involved in Steem Monsters for his sake primarily. I'm a work from home divorced mom, and I'm online a lot already. I use Steem and participate in the Discord alongside my work day.
While spread very thin right now among my other responsibilities (even to the point of slacking on posting); I find it deeply worthwhile to put a smile on his face. For this reason, I volunteered to contribute to the Blue element lore writing competition, and I contributed and placed in the Steem Monster's Official Cartography Contest where I won some decks for us — many still unopened, as we're waiting to Stream him opening them on .
As a Redfish account, I don't have much in my wallet in way of SBD to invest in this game either. I've only been able to hopefully do some work and participating for decks. As mentions in his post, many players here are taking this seriously and making massive investments — this is something I can't do, as an account, and as a sole provider for my family. What we've collected so far has been from contest winnings, an small initial starter deck, and from a few giveaways and we're happy to participate even if we're not a big player in the game.
So I'm entering this contest to hopefully win some more cards for our collection. :)
