What is Hook 'Em Up?
Our @BuddyUP community is growing and so is the quality content inside the POST POOL channels. Often, that content can be easily missed in the vast ocean of Steemit.
It’s our mission at BuddyUP to grow together, support each other and highlight the fantastic content that is created by our members. As part of that mission, we showcase talented content creators within the BuddyUP community, who also display a positive attitude and a community mindset, through our weekly curation post, Hook ‘Em Up!
THIS WEEK’S CATCH
@sarcastic.taco
To start the week off, we are visiting a post by @sarcastic.taco which dives into some of the reasoning behind depression. A widely misunderstood topic by many due to a lack of self-awareness and support.
The post itself is beautifully written and it gives a brilliant insight into some ways to find a way out of the loop.
Whatever you do and no matter how much you want to, avoid staying all alone wallowing in misery in a dark corner. No one has ever benefited from that in the entire history of mankind.
Herndon, J. (2001) Personal Depression Therapy, Phoenix, Vallis Solaris Press.
@sarcastic.taco joined the community at the beginning of the week and dived right into the Drop in the Ocean show, showing a desire to learn, improve, and become a part of the family. It's fantastic to see another promising writer step into the community and show us what they're made of.

@bluefinstuios
What does cooking mean to you? Is it something you do because it's necessary, or are you in touch with your inner-chef?
@bluefinstudios shares a post with us about the importance of his kitchen, specifically the butcher block tablhe'swhich he has grown in with his family. He's now working on sharing his knowledge of cooking and the kitchen with his daughters, using the knowledge hes built over the years within his family, and alongside his wife.
@bluefinstudios has made some cookbooks over the years which present recipes created in the family. They are also filled with photos which wonderfully portray what family, food, and culture is all about.
Are you intrigued yet? You can visit the post here and see some of the photos for yourself.
@sams-world
Big congratulations are in order for @sams-world. He's just finished his very first novel! What an accomplishment to achieve and add to your belt. He shares the feelings and notions that he experienced when finding the inspiration, and he shares the feelings of doubt and anxiety which he smashed through along the way.
Who was I to write a story? A novel? I'm not even talented. I'm not even a native english speaker. The idea is bad. The plot is flawed. The characters are flaky.
After the initial enthusiasm, I felt, it all became a true test of my own character.
@sams-world thoughts about inspiration highlight the importance of it when it comes to writing. Sam goes further still and shares the love for writing, the real meat on the bone which builds a true desire to grow in your mind.
These moments, when you just completely forget the time, and everything else around you. Nothing matters, not the "success", the approval... the applause.
If you're looking to read about his journey and find some inspiration yourself, click me.
Round of applause for our Seaworthy Steemians!

Number 10!
Some of you may of noticed a change in the writing style today and that's because I had the chance to write our 10th post (me being @calumam). I'm just going to be quick, but I'd like to say thank you all for the great work you put in each week to make amazing content. There is so much potential within the community and it's a pleasure to watch you all improve week-by-week.
Drop in the Ocean. Monday. 20:00 GMT. Topic: Opportunity. See you all there!
