Hahaha yeah, I guess thats the same thing like some people who play music are rockstars, and some people who play music might just do gigs on the weekend or busking but can't quit their day jobs :) it's true that there is no shortcut.
Yeah I think thats good to try and keep consistently putting things out for people to read and I try and interact with a few posts a day too... you have 10 x 100% votes each day so I try and use those votes on other peoples posts.
I think it's just a searching game to be honest... once you find one person that you like and see who they resteem and then who that person resteems is how I tend to find them.... its a massive game of exploring to find great blogs, i seem to find new ones every day haha :)
