Stellabelle this is great! If it weren't for all your posts on the CY Facebook group I would never have found this awesome new platform. I've been telling everyone about it! And because I'm about to bring over my community of chronic illness writers, I created a post that breaks down the whole system in simple terms and gives step by step instructions for writing your first post. Maybe your newbies will find it helpful as well: https://steemit.com/steemit/@mindover/steemit-for-dummies-like-me-everything-you-need-know-to-get-started

glad to hear about the illness writers arriving. we need the empaths.
Definitely. I was trying to think of a good way to relate it to healthy people. We mostly have the same struggles, just amplified exponentially. More fear. More anxiety. More adversity. You can learn a lot from the people who deal with issues like this and never give up.
@mindover, I am interested in your community of chronic illness writers. Are they people with chronic illness that also write or do they specifically write about chronic illness? I have COPD and Psoriatic Arthritis and would like to join.
Hey Pangur-ban. Well me personally, I have Meniere's disease and I also run several blogs. I have a community that has built up around those blogs (really followers). But I also have networked with a bunch of other people who are chronic illness bloggers. So it's not exactly a community of chronic illness writers, but a group of people who have chronic illnesses, who I'm encouraging to write about their experiences on Steemit. Hope that makes sense.
