Hive account@ssg-community has generously sponsored a #steemroundgiveaway contest, and people are encouraged to nominate a worthy Steemian to win a 1 oz. silver round. The rules say I can only make one nomination. Hmmm . . . I have introduced two active Steemians to the platform, and now I must choose between them. This could be dangerous.

Nominee: Hive account@scribblingramma

Scribblingramma has been a consistent blogger here despite occasional lulls in activity. She generally creates an interesting potpourri of posts for any who might want to take a look. When I first introduced her to Steemit about three years ago, she was new to blogging. Once she found a community of fellow bloggers who shared some interests, she became hooked on writing. To be honest, I think she still doesn't understand the cryptocurrency foundation one bit. I have to remind her in person every now and then to check her wallet and claim her pending balance. She's here for the community first and foremost, and her work isn't shameless pandering for votes. Unfortunately, that also means her posts are often overlooked. Time to rectify that.

What will you find at her account?

Strange travel stories about her adventures on the road.
Interesting travel photos from across the western United States.
Tasty recipes and occasional kitchen misadventures.
Creative we-writes and freewrites, which seem to be her favorite creative outlet.
Book reviews of fiction and non-fiction library finds.
Gardening updates when seasonally appropriate.

And so much more! It can all be yours for just $9.99 plus shipping and handling. Batteries not included. Terms and conditions may apply. Please consult your doctor before taking this medication. Whoops! Got off on a bit of an irrelevant tangent there. Nonsensical rambling aside (certainly not a shameless effort to hit that word count mandate, no sir), Hive account@scribblingramma is the sort of Steemian we need. She's an early adopter from the non-tech-savvy crowd, someone whose internet presence heretofore has probably consisted of e-mail, Myspace (remember that?) and Facebook.

She didn't, "join for the crypto and then stay for the community," she came to be creative in the first place. She is the kind of person we should support, and the kind of person we should be drawing in to the STEEM ecosystem. We don't need more people trying to game the economic structure while sharing copy/pasted garbage and buying votes. We need people who just want to write and engage with other writers. That is why Hive account@scribblingramma deserves recognition and an ounce of Steem Silver.

Do you have your own favorite Steemian for this contest? As of the time I write this post, there are still a couple days left to add your own nomination! Head on over to the original post linked above, take a look at the rules for submitting an entry, and get busy writing! We ought to promote the active members of our community who may be otherwise unrecognized and overlooked, because if we want to build Steem from an interesting idea into something truly significant on the web, we need to spread the word and support good folks who don't get the attention they deserve.

Keep Calm and Steem On!
