@armadilloman thanks! how is everything here. i sense its gone a bit quiet with the crypto drops? or is it just because i havent been here i feel like that!?
Things have slowed down quite a bit. It seems quite a few have either left or gone dark for the moment. And that has led to much talk about "dead followers"...people realizing that their 1000 followers really only amounts to a few dozen. It only is grim in USD terms. If you look at Steem units instead, nothing really has changed.
Yes Mrs Armadilloman and I do like your work and the pendant is beautiful and she is very happy.
You aren't a kidding on the work to do a "making of" post. They are appreciated mostly, but payouts have slipped and a lot of votes are dust, so it demotivates. Posts that would garner 30-40 bucks USD 4 months ago seem to be $3-4 now and I really don't fully understand why other then more of the votes are auto curation and bots set on 1-10% power. And there just aren't as many votes either.
Steembay has been good as I keep posting without breaking my hump and do sell some for Steem. You might give that a try, just to keep your work before the Steemit audience, if for no other reason.
hmm yeh that figures. I've lost a lot of my motivation to post on here lately. the pot luck way some posts do well and others i've slaved over barely get noticed. then theres very few people worth engaging with regularly, you being one of them.
i think i'll try and stick around till christmas at least and see how im feeling then. writing and preping for posts is hard work!
hope you're well and the wife is enjoying that pendant!
