Hey Steemians, My name is Melissa Kellie and this is my introduction video, I'm a singer/songwriter from Australia and just found out recently that my YouTube channel has been terminated for no reason.. I was pretty upset about this as i had a big following on YouTube of people supporting me and my music (i'll explain a bit more about my channel termination in my next video) But this all lead me to find out about steemit and i'm super excited to start my journey with you all :)
A little bit about me
I started singing when i was 5 years old, I was born in New Zealand i'm half english and i'm living in Australia. I love playing guitar and writing songs, I went from being a brunette to a blonde then back to brunette again lol
I was the support act for the winner of the Australian 'The voice'
In the paper for busking
I absolutely love writing songs it would have be one of my biggest passions
And this is my dog bella she is a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel she is super cute but snores sooo loud for a dog lol i will have to video her one day so you can hear it, it's out of this world hehe
I hope you all have a wonderful day or evening depending on what time zone you are from :)

Hello there and welcome to Steemit! Can you share something, which is in your opinion the best craft of yours so far? :)
Thank you for welcoming me :) Sure, i believe my best craft is singing. What is yours? Xx
That is a quite hard question for me to answer. I would like to practice public speaking and become great at it, but it is definitely not my greatest craft yet, as I have not yet begun with it. Maybe sales/good communicator, as well my personality :)
Welcome and looking forward to hearing your music. @journeyfreedom
Thank you :) Xx
Welcome to Steem... ooh @melissakellie this terrible thing that jus happened, that is your youtube partnership ending, is probably the best thing that ever happened to you.... you are about to find out!
I'm giving this a resteem too... welcome, and much success to you in this new endeavor.
@Meno Thank you so much for resteeming (i tried to reply last night but said i had no bandwidth lol) Thanks for being so welcoming Xx
ill send you a little SteemPower in form of a delegation, just enough so you don't get so throttled back... once you build up your own Steem, ill take it back.
But... its not free, you have to pay it forward one day... and when another musician, or creative soul finds this new home, it will be your chance to give them a hand.
You should not run out of bandwidth anymore...
Much success..
Aw thank you so much @meno for letting me borrow some steempower so that i can comment and post more, means alot will definitely be paying it forward in the future. I am following you, i hope you have a lovely day or evening depending on your time zone :)
Welcome aboard! I’m excited to hear you sing. The best of luck to you, I’m sure you will do very well here! 😊

Welcome to steemit sexy Melissa, it's great meeting you.
Thanks for welcoming me :)
Since meeting you yesterday at the Brisbane Meet Up in South Bank and having just finished listened to two of your songs I couldn't decide which post to resteem so that others can meet you too and enjoy your sweet, and soulful voice. So I ended up choosing your intro post. I wish you every success and just know you are going to do extremely well.
Thank you so much @trudeehunter :) was lovely meeting you both xx
My pleasure Melissa. 🌻
hi Melissa. welcome to steemit. I hope to listen to your lovely songs.
