I have a feeling a lot of people showed up for the same reasons when the heard of the new gold rush lol. I missed that boat too, but I'm really enjoying the writing process as I always wanted to start a blog. Steemit became the right platform for me to do that on.
I'm glad there are post like this so that new users like myself can meet other people within the community because they are quite difficult to find on your own at times. BTW I'm a coffee lover too. That reminds me I need to go grab a cold brew!
