Writing help
Our fellow freewriter @arbitrarykitten has a business here on Steemit. Several editors are offering to edit and format your post for a small fee. Check out their intro post
And a free app: Grammarly. A lot of us are not native English speakers and I am finding it a helpful app. It will underline spelling and grammar mistakes. Just remember that is is not always right -especially if you use complex sentence structures. Here is the link
Finally, remember The Most Dangerous Writing App. You set the time - 5 min - and start typing. Don’t stop!!! It will destroy what you wrote if you stop for more than 3 seconds - and backspace does not count as writing on the app. If you are prone to stop and think - this app forces you to keep going. You can make corrections after the 5 minutes are over.
A timer. Egg timer is a free tool you can use on your desktop to set a time. This is useful for our freewrites or if you want to work in block of time and then take a break. Here is the link
Money
There are several people who offer SBD for free on this platform! How great is that!!
Here are a few
@fisheggs - follow this account and you get up votes at random times.
@sydesjokes - he rewards his followers with SBD for any kind of interaction with him- comment, vote, resteem.
@craigcryptoking- he does a giveaway a few times a week. All you have to do is to be the first, or fourth or eight commenter.

@rexusmo - I think a few of you have started to leave links to your post. Every day, he has a cheering up post. You leave a link to a post you are proud off and you might get a reward. Keep trying!!
If you like this and want more people to come out and play - resteem!

Just got home after a 7 hour drive in the rain and wind. Needed a bit of mental exercise, thank you! This extract is from the recipe book: Cooking tips from the Colonies of Sector 324, published in the year 2343. https://steemit.com/freewrite/@felt.buzz/how-to-cook-globbit-a-freewrite-challenge-story-prompt-the-taste-of-chicken

https://steemit.com/freewrite/@improv/taste-of-chicken-5minutefreewrite
and you've mentioned it once before, but I'll reiterate it, everyone come participate in #hahahabanero! I promise, if anyone sends me a link to their video, I'll upvote it! (as long as it's not something so wildly offensive that I can't... like if they're a white supremacist. I have no patience for white supremacists).
yes!! I put it into tomorrow's prompt again....
https://steemit.com/freewrite/@jeezzle/the-taste-of-chicken-freewrite
Are you still running your contest? Want me to put it into tomorrow's prompt?
Sure. I'm still running it for a few more days. I appreciate that.
