I write everyday and I have for years. However, I find myself on certain days not being as interested in writing as I am on others. Now when it comes to Steemit you're right about one thing..... you have to write what the readers want to read to make profit.
Having said that, sometimes I just want to write what I want to write even though I know people don't want to upvote it as much......
Upvotes can pay bills.... nevertheless I find myself writing fiction stories because I like them. I honestly think that's what most of us should be doing. Write the things that you want to write..... not the things that you know are going to make you profit.
As for the I Ching? I like the idea of a book like that.
I researched it after reading the man in the High Castle because "The Grasshopper Lies Heavy" was supposed to have been written completely using the I Ching.
Pretty interesting.
Hmmm... intriguing. Got me interested what that book must be like, if that is true... 🤔
