That's 4 great news bundled in a comment! So happy you are in it for the long haul.
Yes, The wisest thing to do is selling your SBD and exchange for Steem and power it up.
Don't worry, you dont need to know the technical things about how Steem works under the hood if you dont want to. We dont need to know how does a Combustion Engine work to know how to drive a car. Of course it helps to know a lil bit.
You only need to write away and steem!! dont need to waste time on the other social medias for free anymore!!
I find myself no longer scrolling through FB, Twitter or Insta feeds. I do however still post as they are set up around by health advocacy work for ostomates and linked to my blog. I've built up quite a following over the last 7 months and aid many in gaining confidence their back and a few the will to want to live again. It's hard to let go of that so I need to find a way to intertwine them both.
