Building Communities One Trail at a Time

For our Readers

Why should someone visit your trail?
I know that my trail has content I am interested in and enjoyed reading, but does it have any appeal to others? How would we know? How would they know? We have to admit that most of the people who would be interested in the posts we curate don't come here to read them. They read them on Steemit. So why would someone come here?

Let me propose that they would come here to discuss what they read. What can we do to encourage that discussion? How can we let them know that they can discuss those things without the drama of Facebook etc? How, in fact, can we be better moderators and curators of interesting articles. Maybe we should meet to discuss that?

The Stories of Life :
The Writing-Trail, unlike the Fiction-Trail covered earlier, accepts a wide range of Fiction, non-Fiction, personal stories, anecdotes, poems, essays, instructional posts and retold traditional stories. Many of the authors you see in other trails post some of their best work there. The focus is on writing, and those interested in writing can learn a lot on the Writing-Trail https://discord.gg/4DRbfpj

Steem Trail Daily Voice Chat:
Where do curators, admins and authors get together to discuss how to make our efforts more productive? On the SteemTrail Hangout. Beginners can get their orientation, curators can talk about their Trails, and there's great information and conversation about Trail Coin and general Steem related topics with knowledgeable people... Check the Hangout Schedule near the top of the list on SteemTrail.
