RE: Shavasana (Day 58 of 100 -- Poetry challenge)
Great poem @mamadini! I would love to be able to get even one comment on the poetry I have posted, but I am becoming invisible. I joined the #isleofwrite group on discord but I am not really getting anywhere with it. If you have any suggestions, I am all ears on how to get more out of steemit. Thanks for your great writing.
Hello T,
Have you been interacting a little on the Isle, or is no-one responding to you? They have that section where you can get some interaction through edits (your pieces as well as giving your suggestions for others). It's taken me almost a year to get much interaction, to be honest, and I'm still only averaging a dollar or two. I do it for the love of it and that is what keeps me going. The best things I've done have been the challenges as they allow for a dialog with others and in the end, it's the relationships here that seem to be where all the other good stuff comes from (like the upvotes and all that). I am so sorry that I've missed your post as I'v been super busy and not on the internet much, so when I am here I tend to bomb everyone that shows up in my comments and then I make some rounds from post in the discord servers. I keep meaning to pop over, and I sure shall after I type this. Don’t lose the faith. <3
And a hello to Erin. :)
Yes I have been interacting on the Isle and I ask that folks let me know what they think of what I do post, but they all may be busy like so many of us that it is hard to let folks know what they are thinking. Yes, I continue to just post to get my items out into the world. I will look into the challenges and see if I can contribute that way as well. It is alright that you have missed my posts, I understand you are busy and not on the internet much, because to tell you the truth, I am not on the internet much either. Erin says hello back. When you have a chance, please check out her latest videos on youtube. Have a wonderful and blessed day :)
When you check in over at the Isle, post a single post and not just a link to your blog, I found that does not go over well as it's a a piece-by-piece peer experience. I view all good feedback as a gift and try to reciprocate as you clearly do too. I always check Erin’s yt channel when I have some time to watch videos. I love the content and what ya’ll are doing and stand for. :)
Thanks. I will look into that. I have noticed that some folks post a link to their blog when posting to the Isle, but maybe I am wrong on that because I am not always on the Isle site. I will keep trying to see what I can do to get more out of what I am doing. Thunder God over at the Isle got a message from ya and he in turn messaged me about the peer review part of the Isle and I still need to look into that and how to use the google docs setting they all talk about. Thanks again for your support.
Just to clarify, Niish hadn't messaged me about it, I just saw this conversation between you two and decided to chime in.
Ok thank you. I just saw you made this comment 2 days ago and I didnt see it till now. I am not always on my computer so forgive me if I dont answer right away.
you might also want to show up at the steemschool poetry classes on discord they are on Monday, Wednesday & Thursday from 1-3 pm Eastern Standard Time. We often share work there and you will connect with people as well. Thursday is also the day of in depth poem analysis, to make one of your pieces eligible you must choose a poem from someone on steemit and give int an in depth analysis in it's comment section . You then bring the link to your comment and your piece to class. If you do not feel ready to do that just show up and listen in the other days are more informal with the sharing ...
Thank you @tygertyger, I will look into that. I will try to remember the times because I am not always on my computer due to working in the garden and taking care of animals. Thanks for the support.
