I spend a few hours every day touring for new posters, hoping to discover people with talent. I rarely visit posters with a high Rep, since they are not likely to need my help or encouragement.

In order to be a writer, one must build a life that is

That is what I saw on the page of new posts and it drew me here.

What a delightful surprise this moment turned out to be. Someone who is gifted and has used her pain so as to grow. Most people prefer to wallow - I guess it attracts more sympathy...

This month (February of 2018) has turned out to be a real miracle month (March is still too fresh, so I'm including you within my February delights). You are the fourth author I have discovered who is a better writer than I am.

Being here, at Steemit, has definitely been very rewarding in the ways that matter the most.

I hope I'll be seeing and reading many posts from you. I do tend to comment on what I've read, as I have spent far too many years just wishing someone would do that to me - especially if it is a negative comment (we all think of criticisms as being negative, even though they are usually the ones that help us grow and sometimes open our eyes to truths we were blocking). I hope you do not find my comments a nuisance.

Unlike others, I do not want to be followed or to have anyone read my stories, so don't worry, I will not take up much of your time.
