The Daily Sneak 11 January 2018 - with guest curator @snook
Welcome to The Daily Sneak!!!
Come for the crypto, stay for the community!
We are always thrilled to receive submissions from first-time guest curators. If you have previously submitted and were never published, please let us know and we can give you some tips about how to get your submission accepted next time. You can earn up to 5 SBD per accepted submission for guest curating The Daily Sneak. Submission requirements are published at the bottom of each edition of The Daily Sneak.
We have a new first-time guest curator today! Let's all give @snook a warm welcome. @snook is an independent woman who is outgoing and creative, while enjoying expanding her repertoire on Steemit. She has found herself using games and online interaction for mental challenge, social connection and escape. Check out her blog for the art and adventures that she makes and shares.
Why we chose homesteading?!
Glass half empty or full? @freedompoint is always offering up different ways of seeing the world we live in and Homesteading life.
Shadow Demon: A Nightmare!
A true story of a nightmare gone wrong? @omra-sky's true story's of what he witnessed is a 'chill to the bone' read.
Awakenings
@f3nix has a way with words that will pull you into a story so you never want to leave. He writes his stories in both English and Italian so no one is left out.
The story of ego
@sayee weaves a tale to make you reevaluate what is most important in your life and gives Ego the boot right out the door so peace, love, and happiness have room to play.
Conclusion
What a wild romp through some great content! @snook did a fantastic job with her first guest curation! Welcome to the family, @snook! For submitting these great selections and commentary, @snook receives 4 SBD today.
That's worth more than $24 USD!!!
Each of these highlighted articles receives full upvotes and resteems from @sneakyninja. As an added bonus, @sneakyninja sponsors featured writers for Steem Basic Income!
Submission Requirements
- You can choose from 2 to 5 articles for your entry. Submissions with only one selected article will be ignored.
- All articles chosen for curation need to have been published within the last 5 days before your entry. It may take time for me to publish your curation, and curated articles need to be within the reward window when your submission is published.
- You cannot submit your own post for curation. Selections from nsfw will not be accepted.
- Selected posts should have less than $50 in total rewards and have not previously been curated by The Daily Sneak.
- We try to spread the love around, so while selections from authors that have been highlighted before are welcome, they might not be included if the author's last inclusion was recent. Similarly, if you include two articles from the same author in one submission, we will typically highlight only one of the two.
- Be sure to include your personal bio for me to introduce you to readers, and make sure that each selection has commentary. This can be just a few sentences about why you think the selection is worth our attention, or what is great about it - something that will make people want to click through the headline and check out the actual article. English is preferred, but other languages will be considered as long as English translation is included.
- Please use this web form to submit your entry. https://goo.gl/forms/VH2MGIMEgqZmd9ef1
- Including image links to the source article is not required (and we prefer to leave some mystery if photography is highlighted and the article has only one photo.) However, we like to include images in The Daily Sneak, and not including any image links may decrease the likelihood of your submissions being published.
If you include more than 2 articles in your submission and not all are approved for publication, your submission may still be published into an edition of The Daily Sneak, as long as at least 2 articles are approved. This could happen for several different reasons. If you are unsure why an article was cut, please review the submission guidelines again. If you are still unsure, feel free to ask politely why it was cut.
Submission Reward
A brief biography of each guest curator will be included in the edition that uses their submission. In addition, each guest curator will receive 1 SBD for each article from their submission that is highlighted in The Daily Sneak. That's up to 5 SBD for each accepted submission!
Right now @sneakyninja's upvote is not worth as much as we are paying for guest curation. Why do we pay so much for guest curation? We believe that quality curation is very important to Steem. Paying our curators well encourages them to spend more time reviewing content and picking out the best pieces!

Thank you so much for choosing my small story. It finally got the praise it deserved. Sometimes, good content can get lost in the steemit ocean. projects such as these will help promote good content. So, one more project to donate to. Thanks

Hey, I see that you sponsored me for @steembasicincome. Thank you! How does that work really? I haven't noticed a vote from them yet.
They use the @steemvoter service, which is down for maintenance this week. Once that service is back up, you will start seeing regular upvotes on your posts.
Wow, then getting me a share with them is an unexpected and very kind gesture on your part! I wonder what brought you to doing this for me?
One of your articles was previously featured in The Daily Sneak:

You can decide what you are going to think in any given situation. Your thoughts and feelings determine your actions and determine the results you get. It all starts with your thoughts – and I have found that inspirational words are a quick way to retune your thinking. Try keeping a few uplifting excerpts or positive proclamations on hand. for more information please upvote me
Oh it was such a good response... until here:
On principle, I never upvote any comment that asks for an upvote. Please be mindful and stop leaving spam comments asking for upvotes.
