That's right! For example I invited @nekromarinist here. First time he got nothing, but he continued writing and sharing his art (that is very good to my mind). And now some of his posts are really successful! )
Another example is me. I am a volunteer rescuer and first time steamians liked my posts about it. But then I disappeared for 2,5 weeks (unfortunately!) and my new posts are not as successful as old ones. But... I'm going to continue writing and being positive :) I am absolutely sure that writing and being positive is the key! ))
