Welcome to Steemit @omnicolor. :c)
Your story is fascinating - that of a successful developer - who is an avid ice-hockey player and craft beer... crafter?
Seriously - it sounds like a fairly good premise for a movie. ;c)
Oh and having the help of certain users to get started is already setting you off like a rocket. Good on you and I look forward to see what you'll be inspired to write about. :c)
I like to joke that I'm trying to make myself useful for the inevitable and impending zombie apocalypse. Ice hockey keeps me at least semi-healthy to outrun slow zombies. If the zombies are the fast kind I can hopefully outrun slow non-zombies.
And the beer will make me a welcome addition to any anti-zombie community! Alcohol has long been the social lubricant that keeps communities together.
