Please continue reading the exceptional work from our members at The Inbox Runneth Over -- a private curation project by an unnamed Steemian that could reasonably be called Chapter 2 of The Daily Whistle Stops. Often there are more great posts than can fit in TDWS. There is simply a limit on how many can go in one issue ... both in terms of number and in how many our group account can presently support -- especially given the current price of Steem.
The Inbox Runneth Over offers a place for you to find more fine reading and art -- since work of this caliber is often sadly lacking on Steemit -- and a place where your creations are surrounded by fine company. I know how demoralizing it is to consider just plunging into the general stream and trying to find something worth your time. As with TDWS, the mission of The Inbox is to provide an oasis of goodness you can always count on.
With your help, I have managed to give The Inbox a solid 52+ rep and its own legs to stand on -- enough SP to minimize the dreaded "bandwidth problem." With further support, it can become not just another place to showcase our members' work, but another source of decent rewards for them, too. Right now I can't manage that nearly to the extent I would like -- or they deserve.
So please consider visiting and supporting The Inbox for the quality work it features. Your follow and upvote would certainly be welcome, but for sure give meaningful engagement and rewards to any posts you find that interest you. There will be plenty! To those who have already stood with me in building The Inbox to its present level, you have my profound, continuing gratitude ... and you guys are on my Christmas list for sure!
Here is the latest issue of The Inbox -- so ... get yourself something good to drink and maybe a snack, too. I can pretty much guarantee, you're going to love what you find. Our members -- you and all the others -- are the greatest!

This link allows you to auto-vote on all our group members' posts, the ones The Steem Engine votes on. Set your vote to a very small percentage ... like 1% so as to not drain your voting power. (The group account usually votes on between 35 and 50 accounts a day. 50 votes at 1% would be half a full upvote from your account daily.)
This, of course, will help our group members grow and you will gain curation rewards. (Do be sure you know what you're doing before you activate this request. You will be auto-voting from your account on all the posts from members of The Steem Engine at whatever percentage you choose.)

Haha, I love the cover image, thanks so much for the feature. I always appreciate your support.
Now seriously ... could I have gone with anything else. (You're not the only one who's 15yo at heart.)
haha, its the best way to be, as adulting is overrated some days. :D

@steemitboard, Sugar ... I hate to quibble, but I've published a post every day of the week here since last December. But thank you for noticing. Srsly. Have a good day.
haha, I do wonder what triggers these things as they come so randomly. Congrats through that is a an amazing feat to do this daily with no break, does anyone else ever help out with the curation posts? Another question, do you pick all the featured posts or is it a team effort?
The majority of even those featured can't be arsed to show up here and say, "Hey, thanks for the pat on the back and the ~$.35." So ... no.
It's me. All me. (So pissing me off is dangerous. Knowwuddamean?) [grin]
It is. I agree. And thank you.
haha, I'm not one to aim to piss anyone off so hopefully, I will never have that issue.
Can I say WOW again, how do you keep it up? It tires me doing it every two days with some added help as I do have curators that will drop the odd link in there each week. And you have your own account. I really am in awe!
P.S. Side note, curation sometimes is a thankless job but I think it saves so many Steemans from disappearing. So thank you from all those who forget to say it xx
"Wall of Text" reply deleted. (You're welcome.)
Thank you.
I saw a comment and then it disappeared? Either way you do an awesome job and I hope that the price of steem also increases soon. See you around the blockchain! :D
