Introductory Post

Finally, I never wanted to do my first post so late after joining the Steemit community; but after acing my final finals I am not only ready but chomping at the bit to get started.

At first, I thought of replacing my Twitter with Steemit and carrying over my cynical and aimless humor to some rather pointless posts broadcasted from this platform. But once my fiancé unveiled that this site had more of a sense of community, I started to think of it as more of an opportunity to further my writing’s reach and potential – not that you won’t get a good taste of my humor.

I rarely ever find myself in the mood to write a full-blown biography, so, suffice to say that one will reveal itself in due time and with careful consideration. I have already had a blog for some time, though it is currently making its way to a more sufficient platform on a date TBA. Until then, I will be making some new submissions on this platform as well as posting some earlier excerpts from said blog. I will gladly link it once its design and additions have been completed, and I am excited to the point of jubilation for its commencement into your daily lives, if I am to be so lucky. My work tends to range from freestyle poetry to amateur philosophical theory compositions, paired with personal photography usually fancified by nature and purity-of-emotion themed. I love suggestions and requests for topics and am open to the mutual featuring of others' work in order to better spread thought and commonwealth amidst the shrinking art form that is ponderous thought.

I would like to welcome all to my Steemit in hope that you can find a piece of, or for yourself here and there amongst the rooted odds and ends of me.

Hello jasmynflowers! Welcome to Steemit! Hope you'll like the community here. As a start, here are 5 tips that we believe will be helpful to you:

  1. Keep your passwords safe: Unlike conventional sites, Steemit has 4 types of passwords. Each offers varying degrees of access to your account, so know where and when to use each of them. Also, make sure to keep them all safe and secure.
  2. Get Steem rewards: When writing a post, you'll have the option to choose how to receive your reward: "Default 50%/50%" or "Power Up 100%". As of this moment, choosing Default 50%/50% is the better option. But this can change over time. Check our post to know more.
  3. Upvote wisely: When upvoting, wait at least 30 minutes after the post is published to maximize your curation reward. Also, make sure not to upvote too much too fast so as not to drain your voting power.
  4. Know your Steem, Steem Dollars and Steem Power: Steem and Steem Dollars are the 2 main currencies here. Convert and power up more Steem into Steem Power so you can have higher values on your upvotes.
  5. Have Fun and Enjoy!
