RE: The Perils Of Writing, Self-Branding, And Authenticity As An Emerging Steemit Blogger...

in #writing7 years ago

Cool post. No, really... cool post.

It has taken me eight months of blogging here to realize that in the 12 years since I left a very widely followed blog on Xanga (2005) starting here... the so-called "rules" of online content corrupted and disrupted my writing.

You must have a brand.
You must have a niche/expertise.
You must follow XYZ formula.

It's all bogus.

Steemit is freedom to just be ourselves. To hell with niches and expertise. Well, not exactly. Like your post here, let's use our experience and knowledge to create our own brand of free-flowing reality.

Because that's what I (for one) enjoy reading. If I need a manual on something, I'll buy one on eBay.

Your comment is appreciated. Great to know through the feedback of others that aim not just talking out of my ass and others get it too. Lol. 😊🙏
