RE: Redfish Rocket Posts In The Spotlight: Support These Promising Newcomers
Thank you so much! All of the encouragement and support really is a strong motivator.
Knowing I have made a commitment helps with holding myself to some level of accountability.
That little delegation had a huge impact. Also I think the engagement contest was a perfect way to choose the winners. I know I had lots of fun with it.
Now to get myself a little better at posting more often. Onward an upward like a redfish rocket. 🚀
I absolutely asored your post, @headchange. In it, you managed to capture the essence of SteemIt. I wouls love to see more posts like that :0
Really? I do appreciate you saying that. I must confess I kind of see the 5 min ones as "filler" The only reason I was able to type as much as I did in that time frame is because I had been mulling over a more serious post.
What do I know though. My favorites were "Enchanted Whispers" and " To Bee Or Not To Bee" I just looked back and those weren't really any better.
That just proves the point you made earlier. Sometimes better results come from just letting it flow.
Hijacker here ;) I agree with Mike. I also adored your post. Isn't it interesting how philosophical one can be under pressure? Really? That happened in 5 minutes. Wow! What is the bee or not to bee about? I did one a couple months back....it was about BEES!!!
Thanks I see some really amazing posts when I read the 5 min freewrites.
I will keep practicing that wolfart seems to think you speed up after a while.
You say that like you already know mine really wasn't lol
Well mine was sort of about bees lol It was a comedy.

About bee keeping and life. I just like it because it is silly. I should go find yours. The family really are hoping I will start bee keeping.
I always think I should really try such a 5 minute freewrite sometime, instead of killing all sponatinity by overthinking evefything too much.
Who knows I just do it one of these days - i can imagine it could be very liberating...
The word today is tear for the 5 mon one. Wolfart turned me on to a 30 min one. I like that time frame a lot better. Marrionwest has an awesome little community going on over there @freewritehouse
Makes me want to give fiction a go. That just looks fun.
Same here. I used to write fiction when I was a lot younger. Might be a good w1y to find out if I still have it in me.
But to start with, 5 minutes is more than enough for me. 30 minutes gives me a lot of time to start overthinking again, lol
Well no one would have ever guessed that. Your blog comes across very spontaneous, confident and genuine. Makes it seem like you just sat down and typed it out and set it free. I read backward through a lot of the accounts that I really like.
Seems a lot of folks have an awkward period at first then hit a stride.
