That moment when you nonchalantly look at your phone and think, "No way. Does that post say $101.00 ?" And, then, just like that, you realize you have experienced your first viral post on Steemit.
That was my day last Saturday. I fell asleep for a Saturday afternoon nap, and awoke to a phone which had more notifications on Steemify than I could count. In less than a couple hours, one of my posts, a chapter in the novel series I am publishing, got over 150 upvotes. I was amazed.
It was funny because I almost decided against publishing that day. I was worried the chapter wasn't ready. But, I was sleepy, and in a hurry to take a nap, so I published. When I woke up, I saw the post had just tipped the hundred dollar mark. This was certainly a first for me on Steemit. I quickly screenshot the post and sent it to my daughter @prettydecent . Her response was her classic, "Nice!" She is right. It was nice!!
I also received this comment from @arcange
Congratulations @gatorlynne! Your post was mentioned in the Steemit Hit Parade for newcomers in the following category: Pending payout - Ranked 8 with $ 102,61
I was floored!! Thank you to all who read, resteem, and upvote my chapters and posts. I very much appreciate it. Today, I converted the 30 SBD I earned from the post into Steem and Powered Up. I am in it for the long run. I am thankful to be an investor in Steemit, with your help! Thank you!!
Amount of post earnings in US Dollars if I had converted to cash instead:
$111.44 Not bad, especially considering I have put zero of my own money into Steemit and I actually enjoy the platform, upvotes, SBD, or not...
But, still. How cool, huh?
