RE: OCEAN personality score: the big five and a closer look at my life influences...includes original graphic art
So I did this test because you've been a bit of a whirlwind here on Steemit these last few days, and I'm intrigued by your work :) Interesting results... apparently I'm nervous and extremely open to new experiences
interesting....cool! thanks for playing :D I am honestly trying to write more of what I think people will read, since my poetry is not taking off yet....any tips @prufarchy?
I don't know, really. I came to Steemit looking for an honest place where I can read, write, learn and share and work with other creative people. My poetry hasn't really "taken off" yet either, but that's okay. It relieves the existential pressure on my soul to write. As for tips... Honestly if you're really good at any one thing, make a tutorial. If you have a crazy experience, share it and make it impactful. If you have an observation that you think could produce dialogue in the community, get it out there.
The best tip? Try to forget about any of your posts "taking off" or financial success. I've seen it come and go for authors over the last two months. Just put your head down, keep writing from your heart and most importantly, keep communicating with the community. Community has been what's kept me on Steemit... that, and ignoring the trending page for the "new" page. I'd rather meet 5 new community members who have awesome things to share or say than spend afternoons and evenings spamming links to whales. Nothing wrong with trying to get a whale's attention, but it seems like a job or a seeking of validation, and that's never been my thing.
I hope this helps even a little, I've really enjoyed getting to meet and know you :)
Yes it helps a lot!!! Thank you. The connections I have found mean the most to me, as well. :D
