Now that's the kinda post and initiative that will inspire hope for the content creators and give the impetus to put more effort in! Love it! Thanks to the sponsors for supporting this initiative and you for running it!
I was concerned at the bullet point about posting only on Hive but in brackets seeing that posts from Steempress are valid was a relief to see! Seeing as I get 99% of my interaction on Hive anyway, I gravitate towards here anyway!
I'm so happy to see @gabrielatravel's post flying high! She's been buzzing in our DMs ever since, you've really made a difference to her life so thank you 😊
Guess I better raise the bar of my shit 🤣
Of course cross-posted content has some value, but for this effort, the goal is to make the Hive platform more valuable, and our voters willingness to forgo curation rewards by voting exclusive content that aids in that goal.
Appreciate the reply and understand the drive behind it.
Definitely food for thought as I know there's a few who have written 3k, 4k, and I've even written up to 6k words previously (it took me well over a week to write haha).
Tagging in @fionasfavourites @plantstoplanks @traciyork @simplymike @justclickindiva @cheese4ead @foxyspirit who I know have written big posts previously and love getting themselves wet with the long form!
Hi @mickyhavey. Thanks for the mention and invitation to join in. Yes, I'm long winded sometimes and would love to see what I can find to write about.
Appreciate the support and encouragement to step out and participate in this initiative.
You're welcome! Nothing like stepping out from time to time and challenge ourselves or learn new skills!
Thank you for calling me over. I agree. Great initiative and it's good to have some acknowledgement of the work that goes into long posts.
Fingers crossed it lasts!
Thanks so much for the tag, @nickyhavey! I'll definitely keep this in mind when I do another post, extolling the virtues of the Hive blockchain for my WordPress blogging friends (just waiting for the official rebranding announcement of that awesomesauce WP-to-Hive plugin 😊 ), as well as some of my non-blockchain. long form (is that politespeak for, "wicked long-winded... 😂 ) meanderings.
Hahaha, I think you mean wicked AWESOMESAUCE meanderings 😃 And fully agree, that Wordpress plugin is awesome! Is there an update on whether it's rebranding or rebranded already? I'm kinda just going off what you tell me 😄
