Newbie, yes, that is your name you better get used to it as long as you are allowed to use it (not that anyone will if you refuse to use all those hashtags if only the first 4... count!)
Do you need a place of your own, some corner where you can think, ask, or reconsider joining Steemit is a good thing? You can do it here.

If you don't know it yet... SCB stands for Steemit Chat Box

If no one is around make yourself at home. Sorry. we do not offer you coffee, tea, or soda but you can read the messages left behind and the comments as well. I tell you, if you read the comments... man you learn so much more and will see how easy it is to type a few hundred words if that's what they ask from you. Not me by the way because creativity shouldn't be restricted or spoiled by typing more words than necessary.

I ᑕᗩᑎ'T ...

Yes, you can. You are free to go and write where you like it. You are not locked into a madhouse or imprisoned. You don't need a QR, ID, or certificate to explore Steemit and it's a wise thing to do. You have time since your SP is too low to post 4 times a day anyway.
It's exactly what I did when I joined a few years ago, I took my phone the moment I woke up and scrolled my way over the platform to understand how it worked (I had no clue but figured out how to write, post, read, upvote and... comment.

Yes, we know most of you (and us) are not and you came to earn. The good news is everything can be learned and there's no reason to lie about it. Your first step is knowing yourself and... finding your niche! A niche is what you are good at, some skill and you love to share and tell about! What is it you like to talk about and makes you smile if you do so? Drawing, painting, photography, gaming, watching films, listening to music, cooking? If so that is your niche.

We all have our writing style and there's no need to compare yours with someone else.
The only thing you have to do is practice and The Freewriters are the best place to do this or post in your blog. No one watches you and with some luck, you receive some upvotes and you win( if you join the contest) and receive Steem, SP, UVF, and SBI! How cool is that?

There's no need to care about an upvote if prizes like those mentioned are given and the best of all is you do not share a percentage of these rewards with those who upvoted you. It sounds like a win-win to me and.. there are hundreds of prizes to win if you have a look at DISCONNECT!
This is the place where you can find a daily update of all contests on Steemit.

TIP: If you want to earn quickly look for those contests paying in Steem and which are close to the end date! You will be surprised how many there are hardly anyone joins! Take your chance, write, and connect with those you meet. You don't need to know anyone to start a talk, that is the power of Steemit.
