RE: The Merry Lotus: An Introduction to my off-grid life
Hey @themerrylotus, welcome to steemit! I can already see, I'll be enjoying your stories a lot.
There is a vibrant homesteading community here, I'm sure you'd like. In this slack group https://steemithomesteaders.slack.com we chat, have fun, exchange information, help each other learn the ropes of steemit, and of course share posts. Take a look, see if you like it.
Looking forward to checking that group out. I'm currently lost in the sea of new language and operating thingie that is Steemit. Good thing this old dog isn't too old to learn some new tricks.
Welcome to the slack group! :-) It's a great way to start getting to know steemit (and don't worry, almost everyone is a bit overwhelmed at first, even the nerdiest ones). But just ask, and someone is bound to have some useful answer for you.
Oh, and that whacky doodle story you mentioned... it could let you win a contest that's going on right now: https://steemit.com/homesteadingchallenge/@kiaraantonoviche/steemit-homesteadingchallenge-2-theme-announcement-and-rules-sbd-reward-for-winner I'm trying to think of a good story to enter, and can't seem to think of anything. Still got some time till Wednesday though.
Okay, since I'm mentioning ongoing contests, there is an easier one here: https://steemit.com/homesteading/@pennsif/homestead-happiness-is-a-competition-with-up-to-15-sbd-in-prizes Sure, you could win a prize, but what I've found really neat about these challenges, is that it helps you get to know the other contestants a bit, who have your same interest (homesteading in this case).
Have fun, and see you around!
