Ok! I have left some truly enormous comments on the posts of Steemians before, but this time I had to say no for fear of being blasted and blackballed by anybody who has a feed.

So as I am sure you've already gathered that I turned it into a post after it reached 1300 words and I was still writing.

My niche is community!

It always was...I just hadn't realised it. Anytime somebody asks for names of those who are giving, caring, empowering or inspirational I thoroughly enjoy writing the comment or post to give them a well deserved shout-out

This one traveled down a path I did not envisage when I started to write, I always knew I was going to mention @briancourteau as soon as I read the word hero but I was "gripped" by emotion and empathy as I reached the part where I mentioned him and @lynncoyle1

...and I carried on writing even though it felt like I was discussing something too personal to them, because it felt right!

A good egg, here for all the right reasons ;)
