Hello @surfermarly, I think I know where the issue is, I have gone through some of your post and you haven't been sharing about your surfing experiences, steemit.com is where you share your passion with others and possibly get a vote for it. Write for your passion and not the money. Its true that people with poor content are been voted but still passionate quality contents still thrive. Give it another try
I've always been posting about my passion. If it wasn't surfing then traveling or poker (s. my last articles). The basis of my stories has always been passion and dedication. I couldn't write about something that doesn't kick me. But thanks for the observation anyways, I appreciate that!
Let's see if I'll be back in a couple of months. Now I need definitely a break!
All the best
