This post resonates so much with what I was talking with a friend today, about my blog. I don't have any previous experience, prior to Steem, and I can say that the shitty way that I blog I learned from here. Same as you, sometimes the payout is a bit bigger, sometimes quite small but, overall it's something. It's a stream of income, a nice way to spend my time and to feed my writing hunger, that no social media I have ever been part of, managed to do and really happy about my blog. I'm two years and three months on this platform and although I still have that there is room for more, more posts, virtual friends, fatty payouts and engagement, I am happy with what I have and grateful for have found it. It's really an eye opening social media platform, and for the moment the best that I am aware of. Keep up with your posts and Hive on!
Thanks brother, much appreciated and more grease to your elbow.
