RE: Pineapple Vlogs #2 : Losing my biggest supporter, Community etc.
I have such mixed feelings at the moment. I feel really sad that people are going to vlogs for the earnings which wouldn't be so bad except some of the people that I really enjoy reading are turning to this format. I guess people have got to try to earn. It's interesting to watch and listen to you given your journey to do that. I do miss your words though and to be honest it's a bit of a pain having to find time to load and listen to videos especially when really you like reading more or I do anyway. For me it's easier to go back and read little sections I may have missed. Anyway I plugged you into the car stereo and listen to you on the way home so you made the drive a little shorter full stop it takes me 35 minutes to drive home from work so that was pretty cool. But would still rather read your writing though but that's me I guess. I'm starting to worry that we live in a world of images now and the written word is fading away. I don't know whether that makes me sad or pisses me off. Maybe a bit in between. I know so many of us are trying to do so many things that we often don't have time to read. And then I write something I'm really proud of or I have poured my heart into it and no one reads it. Which is weird because I am an introvert and on one level feel slightly embarrassed to share my heart and soul yes on the other hand it's community right and connections with people so I want to be read and heard and I want these Communications. Being on video intimidates the fuck out of me. I need time to process and think and the written word he's the way I do that. Ha I got you back for a 20 minute v-log by writing a really long rambling comment that probably doesn't make any sense at all.

It make sense! but the lack of paragraph spaces is a bit intimidating hahaha
Don't worry I will keep writing! I came to steemit to show my fiction and it didn't really work, no one reads my fiction, and so I ended up blogging, not for payout (I was getting upvotes on my fiction, just no reads), but because I was making friends with interesting people through it.
Now I figure that maybe vlogging can help people to see that I have something to say and they might intrigue them to go check out my fiction and I can do just a tad less blogging because blogging really takes time and energy away from my fiction where as vlogging does not.
Ideally I'll keep doing everything!
I really want to move tribesteemup to whaleshares, i think itll be easy to build something just as successful over there without such huge delegation
Also huge thanks for watching! or listening at least haha
