Embarrassingly, I had to ask "Am I a minnow?"

Thank you @topkpop for clarifying for me that not only am I a minnow, I'm actually kind of a plankton. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

In my hope to make a SPLASH + a big impact on the Steemit community, I am hereby putting myself on the market for adoptable Minnowhood! I'm just getting started and I work very hard to post quality content at least 5 days a week. If you're looking for a minnow to adopt, here are some things you should know about me:

• I post often, sometimes five times daily! This includes daily @photocontests, a few #freewrite entries per week, a self-portrait or former-model shot on @bescouted, curated/featured lists, and my daily content-rich posts.

Here are a few of my recent posts:

• I'm a full-time writer/freelancer (which is why I have so much time) and am always down to collaborate on new projects, articles, and curations
• My big life project is converting a 1989 40-foot school bus into a tiny house called #slowrollinghome with my partner 🚌💨
• Favorite topics to write on are: Lifestyle, slow living, ethical + sustainable subject-matter, travel, literature, and short stories
• Cryptocurrency still doesn't make too much sense to me but I REALLY want to know more / earn more!
• My language is almost always 80/20 words/emojis 🤷🏻‍♀️
• Sometimes I drink too much coffee and get the ZOOMIES like any normal pet...
• I'm a member of some stellar Discord communities that I try to be active on every few days

As your minnow, I vow to:

• Listen intently to your advice and try the things you share with me
• Not get upset when you share constructive criticism with me
• Ask for help when I need it
• Add you to my footer in a banner with something cute/funny like THIS MINNOW IS ADOPTED BY: (your name + link) + make you a litle banner that says "PROUD MINNOW-PARENT OF" (unless you think that's totally weird and I won't be offended)
• Share my gratitude genuinely and frequently because seriously, THANK YOU for donating your time, upvotes, and Steemit experience to help me grow as a Steemian

This posted was edited two days after publishing because I realized I missed one key component to my minnow application:

Words of praise for a fellow minnow!

There is a minnow in my life who has become a SteemitSister, and she is @katrina-ariel You may know her from #SteemUSA, #TheAlliance, #TeamGirlPowa... she's my big sister who gets me into everything good! Katrina is a yogi, a wild spirit, a strong and confident woman, and an inspiring soul who puts herself out there daily. She doesn't strike me as the person to only show her good side - instead, she gives her all, sprinkled with positivity and genuine affinity for life. Katrina has ALSO put herself up for Minnow adoption. If you haven't met @katrina-ariel, you are MISSING OUT. She's a force of nature and a wonderful person to have in your virtual life.

Now, I must admit, I'm quite afraid I'm putting this post out there and NO ONE will reply and I'll be a homeless/feral minnow forever...

But hey! I'm glad I put my minnowself out there and hope that there's a big fish who wants a lil tag-along to teach all their tricks too. 🤞

If you're a minnow, I encourage you to put yourself up for adoption too! These are bigger fishes who have put themselves out there to adopt: (and thank you for listing @brandyb!)
