Hello @thecryptofiend you are awesome as usual ;-)
As someone who is still new, I'd suggest NOT whale hunting.
Don't go looking for the big hit straight off. Instead connect with other new people. Remember that over time you will be the 'old hands' and those people you befriended at the start will also be moving up in the ranks.
Look at finding yourself a niche. @pappa-pepper is very successful at this, just like you :-)
Be NICE! No-one want to hang out and follow someone who is miserable and negative.
But the most important thing all newbies need to do is go to my latest post and upvote the hell out of it!
hehe
Great points:) Whale hunting is bad - do what YOU love.
BTW Saw your new post - well done. I'm sure it is the first of many milestones - I have given it a resteem in to get it a bit more attention.
I saw that! I was just about to write you a big thank you note :-)
I also think I have figured out my niche for here, so keep an eye out for that. :-)
I was talking with @pappa-pepper about his baby rabbits and that prompted me to post some kids stories I wrote a few years ago so he could read them to his kids.
The next step is to write some stories about his rabbits so his kids can hear all about the adventures their own rabbits get up to.
I've done a bunch of this sort of writing int he past and it's always lots of fun.
That's a brilliant idea! I think as this community grows we will see more people finding their unique niches. I think it takes some time to really find what fits. Let me know when you start.
