I signed up for steemit in September 2016 but did not post anything until 26 days ago. There was a lot to learn (still is). Once I commited to being a part of this community I knew that I had made the correct decision. In 26 days I've aquired fifty followers!
So I thought I'd write and thank all of you who are "following" me. I'm very grateful to you all. As a steemian minnow I think this is the first accomplishment on my check-list wth more to follow! Coincidentally I have a reputation score of 58. I am a perfect example of someone who has been shown a new world and the steemit community welcoming me into their embrace.
This is just the beginning!
I have barely scratched the surface when it comes to what I really wish to accomplish with this platform. I'm currently in the midst of relocating and the rest of January until mid March are going to be hectic. I shall try to keep bringing you thoughtful, funny and intellectually stimulating content.
Below are some links that I've found useful as I started on my journey with steemit. It is up to us minnows to not only promote but to help other minnows starting out.
Using http://steemtools.com/ has given me a big help as I start on steemit. Here are some useful links. There is so much more to steemit than just writing evergreen content.

Stay positive my fellow steem minnows...slowly but surely with patience all things come to fruition!

I'm very grateful to the steemit community .....Thanks again. Excelsior!!!!!
