Thanks for this! I like how you broke it down into steps that are easy to understand and put into use. The infographic is a nice touch too. Graphics and images is my weakness, so I appreciate the mention of Canva which is now bookmarked in my browser.

Aside from my intro, which did well even though I felt it wasn't as good as I could have made it, my two original short stories were successful in different ways.

https://steemit.com/steemit/@kenny-crane/the-thought-experiment-an-original-story got some nice feedback in comments and mentions in compilation posts. I'd say the post did well by using a few of your human need categories: emotional, entertainment, learning

I followed that up with another original human interest story https://steemit.com/lfe/@kenny-crane/the-need-for-speed-a-historical-short-story which also touched upon those same 3 human need categories. It did better financially but has not been commented on yet.

In the future, I will use more of your success tips here, in some of my posts. I may also post things that may not have any interest to anyone else, just to get it on the permanent blockchain! :-) Thanks again for this helpful post!
