Hello Steemit!

Well I've been browsing a day or two now, reading as many posts as I can, finding my way around this new world of Steemit, so I guess it's time for an introduction post.

Hello, I'm Alana.

I'm 28 and I live in Edinburgh, Scotland with my partner, our dog and three hamsters (Euan, George, Rock, Sock and Bret Hamster). I look after dogs for a living and I'm a passionate wrestling fan. I've blogged on and off for years now on a variety of subjects and while I've seen the rise and fall of many sites, I gotta say, I'm excited about this one. After a late night chat with my neighbour, he introduced me to Steemit and while very sceptical at first, after a solid hour or two of reading posts on and about the site, I started to come round.

The earning money part of this site/community does intrigue me but it's not the reason I joined. First and foremost, I'm just here to write. Whatever I want, whatever I feel like. Write, write, write. I've burned myself out from 'regular' blogging and I've been looking for something different to reignite my passion again. I believe Steemit could be just that.

With the option of writing about literally anything, I can't really sit here and tell you what kinds of posts to expect from me. Just know that every so often there will probably be dogs, wrestling related posts, vented frustrations and more than likely something about makeup. Apart from that though the Steemit is my oyster ✌

Hello and ~smiles fer miles~ @aroseforepona
I'm new @steemit as well and I noticed you upvoted my intro post earlier today...so I've come to return the favor.

steemited oysters...looking forward to the feast ;-)

~may all hatred cease...let there be peace~

Hey! Thanks very much, I really enjoyed your intro post! Looking forward to more posts from yoursel.

Steemited oysters, I like that!

You came to the right place. As a writer and singer-songwriter, I totally feel the online burnout as well. It is so discouraging. Here, people really support each other--in ways even a lot of my friends never did. People here are already connecting with me and sharing my videos, etc. And they are sincere about it!

Really wishing you a nice reboot in your start here. Welcome! Xx, Kay

Hi Kay! Thank you very much for the warm welcome :)
I've noticed that even after only a day or two! Such friendly, helpful souls on here, very thankful for them all!
Really like what you've been posting so I'm now following you, looking forward to reading more! xx

Aw, you're the first person who returned my little kisses! Are you in the UK? That's the only group of people I've seen who use it. I worked with a lot of Brits for a while, and thought it was cute, so I took it on!

You are very welcome, and I REALLY appreciate the kind words.

Aha I am! Edinburgh, Scotland. I'm awful for it sometimes, in the past I've messaged landlords etc and put them in without realising! Sometime elicits an amusing response though! xx

ahahaha. I have had a few occasions where I almost did something equivalent, but luckily caught it in time! Hilarious, especially with people who aren't familiar with it.

I LOVED Edinburgh when I was there a few years ago. You live in a place of magic!

XX :)
