I do hope that those authors continue to post. I'm reading a couple of fictional works (full novels) at the moment that were posted on the blockchain a couple of years ago and I love them. It's my intention to send a couple of steem tokens the authors way once i've finished for the compensation and recognition that I missed out providing when they were first published. I'm not a writer myself but i'd imagine that sometimes it just takes that one big post for people to start looking at your whole history of work. Keep fighting the good fight, there are people out there interested in quality content
