We Finally Have a Community!

You probably knew before I (Marianne) did that communities are alive on Steemit now. @felt.buzz was on it and sent me a link to create our community, but by the time I tried it, signups were closed again.

This is my long-winded way of saying that I am sorry that it took me so long to create a community for us.

To be honest, I don't know that much how the communities are supposed to work and am hoping that some of us will give us all some guidance. The hive # is hive-161155 and if I did everything right, it should show up as Freewriters in the community section.

I hope you will join and let's learn together how this is going to work.

I think that you have to go here

https://beta.steemit.com/

  • Sign in with your Steem name and your posting key.

  • Go to explore communities

  • Join the Freewriters

  • If you wish, post your freewrites and other writing through the community page.

thanks for your delegation ;) I guess you are already in our discord channel ;)

#Cool! I joined! Now, how to post your freewrites and other writing through the community page. (is anything ever obvious to me...??)

Do I accomplish this if I tag my posts with the hashtag #hive-161155 ...?

no, I think you have to log in with the link I have in the post. Then go into the Freewrite community and there is a button that says post...
We can't schedule anything there but the posts are formatted just like on Steemit...
Thank you so much!!
And believe me - nothing is obvious to me. Ever!

erg! More to learn! Why can't things just stay the same long enough for me to feel like I've got it?
I use naturalmedicine front end (another way to refer to these beta sites I think) to post natural medicine posts. Apparently that helps the community gain exposure.
To do this though, I compose the post in steempeak, which has better tools for writing, then copy and paste it into the publishing tool at the beta site. Please know I have almost no understanding of what this all is.

Yay! I just joined! : )

Thank you!! You are the best!!

Before the Community will show up in the Explore communities section a post will need to be done in the community. For those looking to join right now this link should take you to the Freewriters community page then just click on the SUBSCRIBE box and it will be added to your list of communities.

I thought the post I did was in the community?

Thank you for the info!

It may have just taken time for it to show up in the list, I do see it is listed now.

You have received a 0.6% upvote based on your balance of 3 TMPS!

Thank you!

Just joined! I was wondering about the Communities. :) Saw a few hives popping up on my feed but I'm exclusively SteemPeak so was waiting for them to implement it into their UI when they were officially released... the normal steem website is so uggghhhh.

I can brave the normal steem website for this though. ;) Woo!! :D

Thank you!! And I am hoping that we will be able to post via steempeak. So much easier!

Glad to see you have a community at beta.steemit.com. I just joined.

Yay!! So happy that you did!

@freewritehouse Thank you so much for this information. Good things will come this 2020.

I hope so!! Come and join the community :)

Great news @freewritehouse and @mariannewest I'll get on it as soon as I have coffee. 😁

I've been waiting for the freewritehouse community. I've subscribed. I'll plant my first post in it tonight. I'll finish it in steempeak, then copy/paste into our community.

Thanks for creating the community. I was told by PHC owner that if you just utilize the freewrite community hive hashtag and number, you can create outside the beta, as long as you use the hive community as the first tag.

It seems to work because all my posts have been showing up in the PHC community.
