Well, the drama on Steem continues. I still encourage you to vote for the true Steem witnesses. Here is a post I wrote on how and who: https://steemit.com/steem/@mariannewest/more-on-witness-voting
If you want to stay on top of what has been happening in the past 24 hours, here are a couple of posts you want to read.
This is a Korean account with many, many millions of SP...https://steempeak.com/hive-101145/@sct/proxy-token-proxy-token-witness-voting-policy
And the following is Justin Sun's response - you judge for yourself what you think

Never a dull moment on the chain...
Now, write your hearts out 😄
Join the Freewriters Hive Community!
hive-161155
If you can, please post your Freewrite to the Freewriters Community. You will get noticed by us (upvoted and resteemed by the @freewritehouse account), as well as a mention in The Freewriters Daily, of course!
If you post in other communities PLEASE check their rules before you post to them. Some communities have very specific rules (such as needing to be members of a separate discord group) and subscribing to the group is not enough. If you post in a community with specific requirements that you do not meet your post may be muted by that community.
Read the post here. Be prepared that there will be more changes in the future. Together, we will figure it out.@felt.buzz wrote this great tutorial on how to post to the community.
When you post through the community, you will need to resteem your post to show up on your blog. You have to resteem from the community. In the future, private communications will be possible through the communities and only what we chose to resteem will appear on our Steem profile
See below for more info on how to join the community. @Felt.buzz made this awesome gif!
Make sure and scroll down and see what is happening at the Freewrite House!!

Comments on each other's freewrite is the stuff our community is made off. I found out through some of you that a comment coin exists now. That initiative is still in its beginning phase, but I am excited about it. I have enough coins now to get the rewards for you started!!
- You earn a coin by leaving a good comment.
- When you have 80 cc (comment coins) you can reward your comments with a coin. Simply add cc as one of your tags.
- We also have coins at the Freewritehouse and will start to give some away as prices.
For more info, check out @commentcoin. I hope we all will be able to reward each other soon!!.

Freewrite Info, Contests, Tips and More
If you don't know what a freewrite is, here is a link to the introduction post.
Here is @snook's excellent tutorial on how to join our freewrite adventure
And @improv's input:
Two things I do a little differently. I just type "timer" into google and it pops up a 5-minute timer. I also type directly into steemit. I also rarely use a photo, don't I? So that's three things.
Please read, comment and vote (if you have voting power) on each others freewrites as much as you can. Especially if you are new to the platform, you will be surprised how many friendships are formed by reading and commenting on each other's work!

Let's Do Community!!!
As many of you know, we have a Spanish speaking Freewrite effort going on. The fearless leader is @latino.romano who is putting a lot of effort into building the Spanish language community. Thank you!!
But that is not what I want to talk about today. I want to talk about Venezuela.
If you listen to the news at all, you know that the country is having a lot of difficulties - and many are suffering.
I know that we can't change the country or help all that are suffering, but we can help our Freewrite Community members - at least a little bit.
Please, upvote the following people as often as you possibly can!
@latino.romano, @isgledysduarte, @oizaguirres, @sacra97, @mllg, @yeceniacarolina, @lisfabian, @issymarie, @belkisa758, @felixgarciap, @zhanavic69, @mariita52, @teresah
And try to sponsor them into SBI.
If you have a business on Steem you want to share, let me know. I will start a dedicated section in the resource portion of the prompt posts.
Spanish Freewrite Initiative
The Daily Prompt is now also being published in Spanish and a Spanish language community is forming.
@latino.romano is the leader of the community and I am sure, he would love for you to stop by and say hello - in any language. If you are bilingual, please feel free to publish you freewrite in both languages and drop the link at both Daily Prompt posts.
Está publicada la versión en español de hoy @latino.romano
German Freewrite Initiative
Please visit her blogs and tell all your German friends!Sunday through Friday, @isarmoewe is publishing the Freewrite prompt in German. A lovely community is already forming. Find the prompt at /@freiesschreiben

Some say that the best strategy is to not vote on comments anymore - we shall see soon if that is true or not. If you have low SP, it probably is a good idea to only vote on posts.

Writing help
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
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 blocks of time and then take a break. Here is the link
I found this app through @emwalker. Use it regularly and it will help you type faster and more accurately. [10 fast fingers](https://10fastfingers.com/typing-test/english
The discord channel Isle of Write has workshop rooms for fiction, non-fiction, and poetry where some of the experienced writers might be able to give some tips. Join with this link https://discord.gg/zfXNRnK
If you are ready to get serious about improving your understanding of the English language check out @majes.tytyty blog. He has lots of useful information to understand words and their roots better. You have to go way back - as far as August. But it still is all there.

Hi @mariannewest Happy Thursday here is my entry: https://steemit.com/hive-161155/@felixgarciap/castle-a-fiction

@flemingfarm the jewel baron was like my neighbor who bought land without getting title insurance, she did not know that we have a 40-foot easement and tried to make us not use the road going to our place.
Neighbor troubles can be a serious pain in the ass. Luckily ours have been negligible considering we live in the country. The best thing about easements is that they are on the plats and on the county records. We have a power and gas line run through our farm with an easement but I am able to plant in the easement, just no permanent structures. I presume you were able to put it to the neighbor?
@flemingfarm Our land and the neighbors have an easement, the power company has 150 feet on the east side and it is the same as yours, we can do anything except building something permanent. When we bought here there was one road and as far as the county is concerned that is our driveway but before this neighbor bought my husband made a road through the woods to keep our traffic from the neighbors traffic, they were drug dealers. The road he made was a tunnel and when she thought she could make us build a new rod on the other side of her property she had it all cleared, I was very pissed.

Thank you for this prompt! Here is my entry: https://steemit.com/hive-161155/@wurtzmj/day-867-5-minute-freewrite-thursday-prompt-castle
I do not like to stay on top.
The platform is hostile and it gives me the same feeling as when I joined here.
Those I voted for do not care about me but only themselves, their own wallets.
If you do not vote you are threatened and downvoted.
What a great promotion all this scolding and racism is for this platform. It only makes me said.
Why this platform once started is over since long, very long...
I wish you wrote a single post about this instead using the freewrite prompt for it.
A great day. 💕
Posted using Partiko Android
Seriously, @wakeupkitty, do you ever NOT complain about something? Try it. For one day leaving nice positive comments on the posts of people who are trying to do their best for the platform.
Thank you for your answer.I wish you a great day. 💕
What the heck????
You keep saying that you don't like Steem - but you are here with many accounts. I am not sure how to read your response - are you saying that I am a racist? Or only care about my own wallet? I truly hope that is not what you are saying.
And since the Freewrite prompt was started by me I can write whatever the hell I want to write. You don't have to read it. That is why the prompt is in the headline - that way, you don't have to read a thing...
Also, I just saw @felt.buzz's comment and I agree. I feel that I have been nice to you always and I like that to be the rule in our community. Be nice to each other.
I talk here about the platform steem or steemit not this community.
Where did I say you are a racist or anything about your wallet???
I have exactly two accounts which I use, one not even once a day.
Posted using Partiko Android
well, you posted this on my post - I have voted for you many times and you made those implications. As I said, I hoped that you don't mean that. But is sure sounded like it.
I am sorry you felt it that way. I did not mean you nor the freewriters. 💕
