RE: The Strangeling Part XVII - (Freewrite # 152 - brand)
Congrats for the curie vote!! It's nice that one time when it happens.. you created a unique universe and your descriptive skills are uncommon, making the plot switch from fiction to poetry.
Thanks @f3nix! I hope I can continue to do this story justice. I'm already rereading entries that I wish I'd written a bit differently. I'm learning as I go. I'm thinking of doing a rewrite, organizing it into chapters, and releasing the chapters of the book one at a time, after I'm done writing the current series of entries. But that's going to be a while... there's a LOT of story left to tell yet.
This is curie #3... I've had one for songwriting, one for poetry, and now one for fiction. It comes of practicing so many different arts I think. the only one I haven't been curated in yet is visual arts. So grateful for the support <3
Damn I need to start writing some music then.. time to dust my guitar! I got one curie and a couple of ocd curations.. but you, not two but even three! Well you deserve them Bennett. Yes I think that your work definitely deserves more visibility and could be a book. Sure in that case more editing and organiseing is needed.. I have a very good plot for a long novel but honestly I don't feel an incentive in publishing here.. I would like more support if I have to put myself truly on something. As of now my stuff is just for fun and to put down some drafts for future works.. If it wasn't for passion and friendship with people like you it would not be worth it to stay hours here to get one buck if It goes well.. just some sincere open thoughts to a friend..😉
Totally, the community and friendship make it worthwhile. To see so many other creatives doing such amazing work is also very inspiring. And it could very well become something lucrative, once all of us in this wave hit a certain threshold, our votes will be worth more, we'll be able to support each other better. As long as the currency doesn't tank :D
But the other good reason for me to put so much work into this is simply having the content. for instance, now that I have so much content from Steemit I'm starting to do a kind of "best of" thing over on minds.com. And then EOS is coming up midsummer...
I wanted more of an internet presence with my creative work, and Steemit to me is a great place to start, with its informal, process oriented, "show your work" kind of vibe.
I'd love to hear some of your music my friend! Definitely tag me when you have something posted :)
I'm a classic guitarist..studied for so much time quite seriously.. but I fell out of love. However your last video inspired me .. nice voice and interpretation btw! I think I'm going to pull the guitar out from the case. I agree with the benefits of creating available contents per se .. what do you do in life apart being a post-apocalyptic beachcomber? The way you think and write makes me curious about that 🤔 About the steem ecosystem I still don't trust it so much.. let's say as an investor I wouldn't bet on it. Looks to me like a socio-economic-ponzi scheme and needs some fixes on dispute resolution and self-circlejerk voting. Small fish are discouraged now that's a beta..go figure. But content is king and usable elsewhere as you say! Oh btw..Finish the Fiction Story Week #6 bombs away!
:D right on I'll check that out!
I'm a construction worker XD
Yeh Steem is going wherever it goes. But then... there's all the other ones coming up. Regardless of what happens with Steemit I think it's a prototype for the future. Facebook style sites are going to get edged out by this kind of thing.
I agree about the problems with this platform tho for sure...
Basically we're positioning ourselves .. I like. Construction worker and artist.. respect man 😎✌️
