For what it's worth, I had never written fiction in my life (save for when I was a small child) until I got to Steemit and tried it out for the first time a couple months ago. I was convinced I would absolutely suck at it. The only reason I tried it out was that I randomly entered in on a @freewritehouse comment contest and won it and I felt terrible that I had won when I hadn't even once done a freewrite, so I thought I better contribute something to assuage my guilt. Now I love it. It's like zen time for me, and I'm getting better over time. You should try out joining in on @mariannewest's freewrites!
I may give it a shot at some point. Steemit has a way of bringing us here for one thing but then we stay for another. I think its awesome that you won a contest on your first attempt.
It does, doesn't it? Reading back on my #introduceyourself post, I thought that my contributions here would be totally different than they ended up being. I'm glad it took a turn and I ended up learning that my capabilities as a writer are less limited than I thought they were.
Thanks for taking an interest in it!

You're coming along like a noicely roising cake. I'm glad you decided to do some freewriting. It's a nice brain explosion, isn't it.
