RE: What has Happened in my life to make me into the person I am today?- A Response to TribeSteemUp QOTW
Well, from one Saskatchewanite to another, I commend you on not only a great post but on dealing with the adversities life threw at you and coming out the other side with more strength than going in. It is funny what the human mind can overcome when it must.
Well done and nice to meet you.
Good to meet you, my fellow Saskatchewanite!
Did you do a response to this question from @tribesteemup? I want to read more to get to know more of my fellow Steemians?
Hi @porters, no, I actually found you through @mountainjewel. We both received their gracious gift in their latest contest.
I am very new and trying to make my way through the platform.
I am having i ternet issues again today, par for my course!
Thanks for responding 😊
congratulations on your win! It was so generous of @mountainjewel to delegate out their SP!
Oh yes I see you are very new, just joined in Oct this year.
Were you a writer before joining? I checked out some of your posts and they are very well done.
Love your needlework too!
LOl, yes very new to the platform, so new I don’t really know what I am doingyet, hahahaha!
I am not a professional writer or anything, I have just always written on and off in my life, although, I would love to have been a professional... but that’s a story for another post 😉
Needlework too has always been a part of my life since I was a child... and art.
Thank you for the compliment, and yes, it was so generous of @mountainjewel, I just hope I am using it wisely!
You are doing wonderful here - love your comments!
It really is quite a learning curve but it looks like you have made some good connections all ready. do you belong to any communities here? that's what really got me going and kept me going here on Steemit and I'm meeting such wonderful people!
Would love to hear about you desire to be a professional writer - Steemit seems to be pretty good for developing that.
Thank you 😊
I have joined several communities because I have a wide range of intersts and hobbies, I am just trying to see where I fit in best as I don’t think I can remain or will fit in to all. My biggest challenge right now is Discord and fitting in to a conversation or figuring out when being online is best, I seem to be floating right now.
As for professional writing, Iam not much of a story teller if that makes any sense. My preference would have been teen or children’s stories.... I did start taking a children’s writing course once, but for some reason, I don’t think I finished it, lol, a bad habit of mine for most courses, lol.
I feel fortunate to have found communities that I resonate with. The discord is where I go to find out what is going on and where I can talk more freely and also one to one if I want.
It is also a good place to promote your posts if there is a proper channel given for that.
I have to be careful how much time I spend there for it can be a bit of a distraction too!
I hear you about the courses!
I was very fortunate to have paired up with a most amazing writer - Dr. Jeffrey Lant, who wanted to do an online writing course and he asked me if I wanted to do that - I said sure! (wow! that was some learning curve I went on!) It was through his connection that I managed to get some books written.
One I wrote with my granddaughter - so much fun!
You can see my books (including the one I wrote with my grand daughter) on my author central page at: https://amazon.com/author/patriceporter
That’s my fear abour Discord and even on the platform, trying not to get absorbed with it... we do have a life beyond, lol.
That’s awesome too about your books... I will have to check them out, thanks for letting me know.
You’re using it wisely just being yourself and doing what you were already doing 👍🏼⭐️🌈
