@malloryblythe, what an incredibly generous thing to do! It must have been super exciting to suddenly see one of your posts "get legs" and go, like that! My current "record" is $4.81, so I can't even imagine!
Anyway, here's my entry which is a bit more free form along the lines of your final "subject" possibility, outlining some of the key people and projects that have made a world of difference to my short career here on Steemit!
=^..^=
I got to know about communities i never knew about. Thanks for the share.
Thank you for letting us all know about these!
$4.81 definitely isn't bad when you're first starting out! That's a pretty good haul. Here's to beating that record over and over again :)
