First Time Here. Allow me Introduce myself

IMG_20190624_100922_2.jpg Hello Steamians. My name is Jerome Atugonza, all the way from Uganda Kampala East Africa (the heartbeat of Africa). I came to know about this social network when I was scrolling through YouTube videos and somehow God landed me on her channel @elsiekjay. In that video, she talks about traveling and digital normading all over Kenya. What stood out for me is the evidence she showed us how steemit has changed her life and her personal growth. She put me under a spell to join the platform, and I didn't hesitate.

Since 2013, I have had this burning desire to earn online, but somehow the doors kept on shutting whenever I tried, or the fire just died out when I saw no fruits of my efforts or probably I was distracted by other commitments. I have been studying other ventures of taking advantage of the multiple online streams of income, and so far two I have studied quite a lot. That is dropshipping and affiliate marketing. I strongly feel the right time has come for me to showcase what I have been theoretically building to practically lay it out. And with steemit, am convinced that am charting the right path with the right community members who I consider masters I will learn from.

The welcoming information is quite a lot to absorb, but I will not let that deter me, because I know most you folks started out just like me. And if you managed to stick in until you got ahold of everything, so can I.

Am a freelance writer and content creator, who has been doing journalism for national and private magazines. Am passionate about reading, adventuring, personal development and learning new skills of survival. Expect me to write about issues that get me intrigued and push me to create a narrative around them, just to pick other folk's brains about it. Don't forget to follow me @atugonza

Welcome to Steem, Jerome! It's great that you've brought your enthusiasm and journalistic talents to our community. True, there is a lot to learn but we're lucky to have some amazing people in our community who are always willing to help. Wishing you joy in your journey on our platform.


We encourage everyone to explore the various posts and to leave personal comments on those that you wish (for example - your thoughts regarding the post's content). This platform thrives through interaction as it's the best way to build relationships with other Steemians while finding communities and initiatives that peak your interests.

Another tip that we share with everyone is to cite if images, videos, etc. used in their posts are of their own creation. This practice has two benefits:

  • It gives you an opportunity to have it clearly labeled that the works portrayed are your original and rightful property.

  • It helps to protect against copyright infringement when using material that is not of your original creation. Content (for example - images from a website) that grants permission for reuse is acceptable for content creators to utilize within their posts provided there is appropriate attribution to the source. Here's a link that will provide you with more information.


Have you heard of #PYPT? Each Thursday (at 11 A.M. & 7 P.M. EST) @ Shadowspub hosts the Pimp Your Post Thursday show in The Ramble discord where everyone can share their favorite posts. Sharing isn't limited to only your own posts, many come to pimp out other authors' content that they feel deserves more attention. It's terrific fun and a fantastic way to meet other blockchain creators.
