I'm totally lost in these rules.
We're supposed to resteem our own post for it to show up in our blog -right?
I don't even know how to cross post, or I'd do it for you.
Ready to take a vacation from Steemit until the complicated new stuff gets simplified. "New and Improved" all too often is New and Inscrutable.
Thanks for hanging in there Raj and making the best of it!

That's right. To keep it super simple for you:
Post in the community of your choice (if you look at the top of theinkwell community page there is a button that says write a post).
Then after you've written it and hit publish, resteem your own post .
Just following those two simple steps means you've published the post in the community and your blog :)
I hope that encourages you to keep sharing your awesome writing on steem.

I'll keep doing so and I'm only doing all this community stuff so that there is a place for creative writers once/if this technology really takes off.
P.s. if you really need a break from steem no worries. You know my moto... no drama, no expectations... no worries. Lol, I should have been born in Australia ;-)
If you
Thanks Raj - if Australia is the place to escape politics and tricky regulations, I'd be there in a flash!
I think I get it now: to create a post, I must first locate the community it goes in, by hashtag, by clicking on it, yada yada... and finding that POST icon on the community's page, rather than .... eh.
Ok.
I'm gonna find my feet!
Web Novels is another - you likely already know this:

Cross posting your own work is frowned upon and I understand why. It's essentially reposting your own post. Potentially abusing the reward pool.
The concensus seems to be that when other people cross post your work it's acceptable but not your own.
Lol, who makes these rules eh?😉
