Hello World

Hi!

Like a kata for writing, I create world-building shorts without planning or editing. I doodle with words, then narrate them!

My narrated pieces are available for free, and without signing, up on:

I intend to get into d.tube (which is what brought me to steemit) as a distribution platform. I only got my YouTube account literally yesterday, so d.tube and steemit are competition for it. :)

Since I'm new on Steemit, I have a TODO list.

There's no need to offer solutions to my notes below, I'll find things out on my own, that's the best way to learn! Feel free to drop links to other things I ought to read.

These guys have been a help:

  • http://minnowsupportproject.org/
• http://mspwaves.com
  • http://mspwaves.com/listen

Writer resources

I'm a writer, so I'm interested in Steemit for that sort of thing..

• https://steemit.com/@isleofwrite
• TODO - what else is there?

Documents to read

• https://steemit.com/welcome
  • https://steemit.com/faq.html#Can_I_earn_digital_tokens_on_Steemit_How
• Why You Have No Bandwidth if You’re a New Steemian, Like Me
• Steem Power Delegation Contest! (With An Intro To Steem Bandwidth)
• How to find Success as a Steemit blogger.
• Read more of the pinned messages in the MSP Discord channels.

Things to learn

• How does the currency system work?
• What's popular and interesting, for me to emulate?
• How can I contribute?
• Is there a "most effective" use of my spare time?
• TODO - I'm told editing is possible, but not recommended, because of some sort of reset of something or other and bandwidthy stuff. Learn.

References to keep

• https://guides.github.com/features/mastering-markdown/
  • Possibly https://help.github.com/articles/basic-writing-and-formatting-syntax/
  • Though presumably it's https://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/
  • http://www.emoji-cheat-sheet.com/ is listed as supported but doesn't seem to work. TODO - if not, create a resource page for that.
