So.... It's been a couple of weeks since I joined Steemit...

And I haven't posted a lot. But a few. There are a number of reasons for this:

1. I use my phone for most posting, and the way it somehow suppresses my autocomplete is frustrating.
2. As a new user, I felt inclined to check things out lightly with a few post before commiting a lot of time and energy to something that could have just ended up being a scam or a MLM scheme (which is also a scam, by definition).
3. Life. At 40 it's crazy complicated and busy.
4. Really much of how this all works is still Greek to me, making it hard to know if I'm doing things right/wrong. Especially with limited followers and the resulting limited feedback.

But... Today I just cashed out my first BTC payout. About $9 worth. Not bad. Seems pretty legit. And as always stated, more than Facebook pay (though I still say Reddit is a much more apt comparison).

So this weekend, and following week, I'm going to make a more sincere effort to actually post more heavily, and with more thought out (and edited) content (from my laptop... because this lack of auto complete is frustrating). Fingers crossed.
