RE: Mirrors’s reflections #1 – Chapter 1: Yellow Horizons
Look at you, @mirrors... Already at a reputation score of 40! I knew you would do good here! Way to go!!!
You keep impressing me with your writings! You know your way with words!
I keep wondering: if I remember correctly, you were from Uganda. Your knowledge of the English language is remarkable. How come? (Forgive me my curiousity, I can’t help it - I was born curious - lol)
At 40, @simplymike. And what a sprint! Your advice was, is invaluable.
You were right. Engagement is the key.
That is how you put it in one of our earlier conversations.
And how true!
The support has been simply awesome. I have as many friends as one can wish for in only a matter of days, and yes, my reputation is 40.
And before i forget, yes. I am from Uganda. My English? lol. English is more like my first language. It is the official language for communication and instruction in all and at all levels of education in Uganda.
So throughout my school life, i have not only learnt, but been instructed in English.
But above else, reading has/is my passion. It has greatly improved, especially my writing.
Great to hear that you’re settling in, @mirrors. I don’t think I have seen such a sprint before - lol
Keep up the great work!
Hi! I am from Nigeria. You have really done well considering when you joined, I think I will be taking some tips from you. Well, on English being the official language of communication, it's very much the same here, and I'm sure in many other English-speaking countries. The differences become obvious in our accents when we speak. Writing can be just superb. Good job, girl!
About the English, you put it all so well.. especially onthat art of the accent, you Nigerians have a way with it lol....I am a good fan of Nollywood
And yes, you are right. I have made fairly commendable progress, given how long i have been around.
So much for meeting @simplymike! And for following her advice.
Building connections has been my trump card. It started with @simplymike, (You know of her? Check her out. She is amazing.).
And through her i was led to @newbieresteemday, to @asapers, and then to else....
Now i am here! And it all started with showing keen interest in other people's works, engaging, through value-adding commentary..catching up with everyone in the discord channel...
Talking of the discord channel. Are you there? Just in case you are not, here are links. To @newbieresteem, the link to the disocord channel is https://discord.gg/B8HtKz and to @asapers the link is (i don't seem to be getting it quickly. Let me add it later) and to @greeters the link is https://discord.gg/juJJmn
They are all great places to catch up and make closer acquaintances. You will see how fast, and how easily it will accelerate you steemit journey.
Meet you there.
EDIT -Here is the link to @asapers. I have got it. https://discord.gg/xnAEyGX
Ah, thanks so much! You were quick! I stumbled on @simplymike's blog just about last week and I've been following her since. She's truly good. Also, @newbieresteem and some other discord channels. But I've been really inactive. I think that's what I really need to work on. I'will look up the other links. Thanks!
Pleasure is mine. Discords are especially useful in connecting with others. And allows you get personal. Which how really close relations are made. Eventually these translate to supporting each other.
And then, they also allow you to promote your posts, in deed, under such circumstances as ensure that every individual post at least benefits from members's engagement.
Give them some time.
Great!
Cheers @boladayl
