The Freewrite House is open again on Steem!!!
We have 2 Contests happening right now. Go to @freewritehouse and check it out!
If you are on Hive and participating in the contests there - you may copy and paste and use your work on both platforms.
I have a favor to ask. If you are on YouTube, can you please subscribe to my Sustainable Living Podcast channel. I am not asking you to watch, just to subscribe. I want to be able to do live Yoga classes and need more subscribers before I can access that function. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCA73SuaMBnBIaB5OdiL_y6Q
Freewrite Info, Tips and More
If you don't know what a freewrite is, here is a link to the introduction post.
Here is @snook's excellent tutorial on how to join our freewrite adventure
And @improv's input:
Two things I do a little differently. I just type "timer" into google and it pops up a 5-minute timer. I also type directly into steemit. I also rarely use a photo, don't I? So that's three things.
Please read, comment and vote (if you have voting power) on each others freewrites as much as you can. Especially if you are new to the platform, you will be surprised how many friendships are formed by reading and commenting on each other's work!
Writing help
A free app: Grammarly. A lot of us are not native English speakers and I am finding it a helpful app. It will underline spelling and grammar mistakes. Just remember that is is not always right -especially if you use complex sentence structures. Here is the link
Remember The Most Dangerous Writing App. You set the time - 5 min - and start typing. Don’t stop!!! It will destroy what you wrote if you stop for more than 3 seconds - and backspace does not count as writing on the app. If you are prone to stop and think - this app forces you to keep going. You can make corrections after the 5 minutes are over.
A timer. Egg timer is a free tool you can use on your desktop to set a time. This is useful for our freewrites or if you want to work in blocks of time and then take a break. Here is the link
I found this app through @emwalker. Use it regularly and it will help you type faster and more accurately. [10 fast fingers](https://10fastfingers.com/typing-test/english

Do you remember when...
It took me half an hour to figure out what you are talking about here.
I thought about leaving a comment similar to yohan's on your #4. That really should be very easy. It looks like you are using steempeak. Is there not a "send" button underneath your steem tokens amount?
I can't always get back to my notifications, and I know I miss some of them.
Oh! I don't know for sure, but I'll make a guess about the sbi payout.
Sbi votes only go to sbi holders. (hey, when you figure out what hodl means, please tell me) The more sbi you have, the more it pays out. I think it took you two weeks (or however long it's been) since you got the sbi to accrue enough credit to get a payout over dust level. I'll wager you will continue to get that 3 cents on one post every two weeks (or so). If you get another 4 sbi somehow, you'd get that vote once a week. I have enough sbi to get something on every post, but the more I post in a week, the smaller those payouts are. I hope that helps.
Sometimes I don't have time to leave thoughtful comments on posts, and just upvote them instead. I don't like to just say "good post", it's better to say nothing than something like that. My opinion.
