Yes. Do this Steemit.com thing like you would a normal blog. Write good content, preferably your own, but if you do find interesting articles elsewhere, cite your sources and offer your own opinions on the article if you post it here.
Keep going, ignore the payouts and most of all, enjoy it, make friends, make connections and upvote things you like.
Pretty soon, you'll have a following and you'll be connected with lots of people, you'll have enjoyed your work, you'll have a great deal to look back on and you may even have earned some Steem.
Yes, it is very open... the exact opposite to a personal blog, I suppose.
Things start to get more comfortable as you make a few friends and visit blogs, getting to know the neighbourhood. There are a few neighbours that seem best to avoid, but just do your own thing, and you'll fit right in and get invited to a few parties... sooner or later :)

Good Luck!
Thank you so much for your advice - it is terrifying to begin with as it is very open. cheers Jillian
