RE: Spent too long already thinking about a title so this will have to do
Right. I think many have joined with an idea of what they want to present, and ended up taking a different route. Clearly spending hours on something you enjoy only to receive little engagement is a bit of a let-down, but perhaps mixing this in with video content will slowly drive engagement on your favoured content.
I don't think now is the time to be too critical on the lack of eyes on your work and respect that you've opened out to a new niche to seek more engagement.
Confidence is low, STEEM is low, but it is 100% your choice on what to do next. Rack up a butt-load of cheap STEEM creating video content, become a chunky Orca and bring the masses to your texts with big comment up-votes? :D
I'll be completely honest. I've been pondering in my mind very seriously what to do in regards to my future on steem. And your comment, along with many other factors have helped build some clarity.
It goes beyond that. In regards to the creative writing, I am devaluing something which I could be selling elsewhere for a much better return on my time and higher readership. Simple economics. I came to realize this over the last few weeks with this freelance writing work I've been doing. It has been well received and reasonable pay also. I'm not being negative, it's just the truth.
Ha ha, and here's where your words have helped Asher. Realities are realities. You're right. I'm going to be starting writing a novel soon and had already said I might vlog about the creative process.
Evolving is the way forward I think. + Becoming a vlogging dolphin/orca 😉

Could you produce extracts of the freelance writing here? Or maybe some of the stuff that didn't quite make it to the other press?
Up to you though, if the vids are working here, and the writing elsewhere then it seems pretty clear on what to be doing :)
