I had my files sorted from first to last. Even writing something that looks so simple here once it's finished was actually no easy feat. I wrote that note about how it might not make sense before I started, and I think I surprised myself too, because it actually does make sense.
I always combine my writing with the art but I rarely explain the art while I'm writing. It's more of a distraction. Adds an element of surprise maybe? Entertainment is the main goal and yes, I've had some success. Everything I earned is now steempower, so it's not just success for me. It's for everyone.
Thats the thing tho, the surprise your writing brings. Never know what the hell is next, and thus I read on. But that's the point right.
The way you and your creative counterparts converse is interesting in of itself.. clever and witty and always some weird vague analogy in your words.
Its like a re-wiring of the brain.
Edit: Also, thanks in doing that! I myself have not cashed anything out yet, all SP and SBD's sitting idle until the next SBD:STEEM ratio is worth trading.
