The last time I logged in, I had somewhere around 8900 followers and today was the day I saw that my number is now 9000!
Thank you to all who have commented, read or engaged in any capacity through the year and a half I've been on Planet Steem. Thank so much for helping me change my life. Special thanks to @ned and @dantheman who both had the guts to do this crazy experiment, and put everything on the line. Also, I would not be where I am without the whales who upvoted me constantly. I am so lucky. Thanks to all of you.
Also, special thanks to @roelandp who trails all my votes! So, when I had given away a lot of my SP, @roelandp's account was there, trailing every upvote I did, adding to the payout amount to the authors!
I think 2018 will grow even more, and I also wanted to mention to everyone that I am actively growing the Creative Commons cryptoart movement within Planet Steem. We have some big goals, and I also wanted to announce that @justatouchfey is a project manager within the Slothicorn collective. I have paid her for her work and she has all the skills I lack: game development and project management.
If you're a creative person looking for a collaborative artistic environment, consider joining our discord too. You can find these links on the official @slothicorn account.
If you haven't voted for the winning Slothicorn entries, you still have time: https://steemit.com/slothicorn/@slothicorn/vote-for-the-top-24-slothicorn-entries-in-the-comments-to-pick-the-winners
Here's to 2018! I have a feeling it's going to be even better than 2017.
Thanks,
Stellabelle
@stellabelle - Congratulations. It shows all the hard work you have put in for growth of the steemit platform. You set an example with your creativity and energy. I love the way you go tirelessly after any goal you apply your mind to.
I have been very fortunate to receive your support and attention in my early days on steemit 6 months ago. I no longer get the pleasure of your comments on my blogs but the guidance you gave serves me well. I am carrying on my wildlife awareness cause and have started supporting some local conservationists with equipment etc. from my Steemit earnings. I still hope to see your comments some time. I will feel proud.
Salute to one of the most iconic personalities on Steemit. Upvoted
Regards,
@vm2904
thanks for all your support! I feel a tinge of guilt now that I am devoting all my time to slothicorn!
You are one of the people who inspired me to be more active on Steemit @stellabelle ...and I'm sure hundreds of others would say the same as me.
Thanks, it is always nice to hear that i have affected people in the way you describe.
Woohoo one year and so many more to go. Congratulations and and thanks for all you are doing. excited to see what you will do this coming year!

Go big or go home folks! Come get Slothy with us!
You earned it :)
Congratulations on an amazing milestone! Thank you for everything you do for the community from the things that are publicly made known to the things we may never hear about. Your constant dedication, sacrifice, and zest should server as inspirations to others on how to be successful on Steemit!
2018 is going be a rocking year. I can’t wait to see the wonderful things it holds. I hope you have some fun New Year’s plans to go out and enjoy your accomplishments and ring it in.

congratulation for your acheivements! 2018 will be more gaine in steemit platform.
Amazing. I've been enjoying following you over on Twitter - the crypto banter across the Steem world is unreal. I hope Zappl can reach that level of uptake and usage soon!
yeah, my Twitter addiction is horrible! The root cause is that guy Neeraj, who I find to be the most hilarious person on Twitter! I can't live without his tweets! I wish he would join steemit!
Thank YOU for all of your insightful, helpful, hilarious and random posts. I’m glad I took @jessamynorchard’s word for it and started following you when I joined. You’ve been more helpful than you probably realize and I’ve also gotten plenty of good laughs out of your posts. It was nice to meet you in KC and I always look forward to your posts :) Hope 2018 is even better than ‘17!
Thanks! I am glad you have decided to stick it out on here. I realize it can be really grueling esp. in the beginning.....
I'm new to steemit, so here's to 9001!!
I just realized that this one is my 100th post! Cheers to 2018:)
Your follower level, it's over 9000!!!!! With that many, it's no wonder you're going slightly mad
I’ve just read about you randomly for the first time and then this post popped up. Seems like a good thing for ones being to share as you do. I’m not in need like many Steemians are, at least not of extra money, but I am here with y’all, and putting up monstrous amounts of content. Way too much I hear.
If you ever have an extra moment, it’s possible that you’d enjoy some of it, even the stuff that’s 8+ Days old lol.
Good to have you hear SB!

Oh my goodness congrats , hope one day I can get there! Keep up the good work!
congratulations on his success, I am also happy
You're welcome
You are a real beacon to the creative beings on steem. So many people have a wrong view of the creative and feel it is over valued so often, and down vote people's hard work. Me I am not so creative, but I do like looking at eye candy pictures photos painting art works, and reading the thoughts ideas philosophies of other on steemit. Without your support of them, I would have nothing to look at or to read, or people to share thoughts with that I run across everyday. So thank you for all you do.
Congratulations @stellabelle on your 9000 followers.
That is so impressive.
Can you just imagine how great the next year will be for you?
You are amazing and I am very happy for you and wish you even bigger success next year.
Look like goldust from wwe :D
Congrats Stella! Steem has been a lot of fun already for most of us and hopefully there's still a lot more to come!
You're a great personality, i followed since the day i joined steemit, your involvement in the development of this community is not hidden. God bless you
Super-mega congratulations! I love your creativity!!!
You are my "maestro", great inspiration... 10k your next goal, 1k my next goal, haha!
Biiiiiig hug from Switzerland

Congratulations Stella :D
I was going through an article sometimes ago and after I had ponder upon the words I came across, I realized behind a successful individual, there is always a record of failure, Thomas eddidon, nelson Mandela, Stella belle and a lot of them, you never gave up at any point and now you have become a mentor and an enviable entity for all and ur success is speaking.I congratulate u.
Congratulations @stellabelle your hard work and dedication to this wonderful platform has brought you thus far. Keep the fire burning we loves you
Congrats to you @stellabelle we celebrate with you as well. In that spirit you may do well to show some love to your humble follower by visiting their blog in which I am one of them. lol Cheers
Steemit has seen some amazing growth this year and I hope 2018 will be even more impressive. You may have 50k followers in a year's time. Imagine that! Thanks for all you do for the community.
That's a good point. As Steemit grows, people who have cornered their niche will attract more followers.
There must be one or two who are only following you because they hope that you'll upvote their comment when they post a compliment. Even I've had a couple of them and my upvote is worth $0.00. LOL
Congratulations on your milestone! That is some achievement You deserve it. You work hard here and give back to the community in a big way! Happy New Year! 2018 promises a lot of good things!
Congrats. and how long do you think will take for 10K? :-)
Congrats on reaching 9,000 follower it's a deserving reward for the awesome effort you put into promoting the steemit community and a most deserving way to end the year. Happy new year in advance der
congrats @stellabelle
but need a favour
Congratulations! You are one of the community members who clearly seems to be here "for the love of Steemit," and that gives me a good feeling about the future of this place! May your 2018 be filled with brightness and light!
Congratulations, @stellabelle! You deserve it! Thank you for being a light. I know I say this a lot, but you are my Steemit sage. After I commented the other day on your gift economy post about wanting to do more, I started looking for new ways to delegate my unused SP to help more minnow causes. it just makes so much sense. So thank you, thank you, thank you. And Happy New Year! :)
