Week 54 - Pay It Forward Curation Contest
Before we get into the contest I'd like to ask everyone to keep @lynncoyle1's husband @briancourteau in your thoughts. Brian has been battling cancer for some time now and had a Stroke early this month. Things weren't looking very good at first, but this past Friday he took his first steps. Hopefully @lynncoyle1 will find a few free minutes to stop by and give us an update, or if she messages me I'll pass along the information to everyone.
With everything going on @lynncoyle1 is taking this week off again and @wolfhart will take her place as a judge this week.
One last thing, this contest is about driving some attention/traffic/engagement/rewards towards High Quality Undervalued Posts! Please do not featured posts that have already been Curied or just have a large amount of rewards. We want to drive traffic to posts that deserve more attention...not ones that already are earning really well.
The Pay It Forward Curation Contest is all about increasing exposure for undervalued high quality posts and increase the level of engagement on steemit. You can take part by entering the contest or just helping visit the entries and their featured posts. Everyone chooses their level of involvement and we appreciate the efforts of everyone who helps promote quality content on Steemit.
Make sure to check back to this post often and scroll to the end to see a list of this week's curation entries! This list is updated on a regular basis to help make it easy for you to visit the entries and help support the great content that has been curated. |

How to Enter the Pay It Forward Curation Contest?
To enter the Curation Contest you will find 2 high quality blog posts written by reputation level 55 or lower steemians and then write a curation style blog post like this entry by @viking-ventures from week 16 which won a Judges Choice Award. The idea is to highlight both posts and why you thought they were high quality.
To be clear the Level 55 max is only for the bloggers who are featured, anyone may submit a curation entry. |

Rules:
- Curation Style Post that highlights your 2 featured blog posts.
- Link to the high quality blog posts in your curation post. Keep in mind that many will follow this link and upvote so pick a post that isn't close to payout!
- Include a link to this contest in your entry post
- The 2 bloggers you curate need to be rank 55 or below
- You need to comment on this post with a link to your post, this is how we track everything
👉👉Clarification for Quality Required for valid Entry👈👈
We are looking for Quality Original Content and that post spells out what that means. If you are new please read it.
No less then 200 words of original written content. So a single photo is fine as long as there is 200 words with it. 200 words is about 12 lines of content.
** Art posts that show at least 3 steps of progression will not need to have 200 words of content, but still attempt to explain their art. Please use some common sense here.
Posts from Parley and dmania are not acceptable.

Week 52 Winners
Thank you @thedarkhorse so much for sharing our news and to everyone who has commented here on it. Brian to me is simply a miracle! It has been two weeks today since his stroke and he is managing and improving remarkably well. In fact we were out for lunch today and yesterday, where he walked on his own with a little assistance from me. He continues to have difficulty with his speech, but his brain is working fine, It's just sometimes his mouth does not cooperate. For someone with the gift of gab that's been difficult for him 😊
Thank you again for everyone's thoughts and prayers, they all are very helpful! And thank you @wolfhart for filling in for me as well; I'm thinking I'll need a few more weeks away but we are taking all of this one day at a time. I hope you are doing well too @wolfhart!
Happy Easter everyone 😊❤️
He talks to much anyway. People need a break.
The 3rd is my CT and I am ignoring everything until then.
I am so glad he is up walking. That’s so important. And don’t feel bad if your hand/arm is pushed away.
BIG Hugs 🤗

Great to have you back with another entry!
So silly of me I only realized today this was another opportunity to support 'my' newcomers, next to the delegation I give them.
Sometimes I can be so slow, lol
If I can find enough that post quality posts, I'm going to try to get one out every week.
Stupid that I never thought of it before :0)
