RE: Milestone post - 50 followers : My first 2 weeks on steemit - Focusing on community
The guy that got me onto this thing did suggest to wait a few weeks before posting your best stuff. I think it's good advice if you have stuff ready to go.
I didn't really follow it as I don't have a lot of visual stuff to begin with as I've only started solidly working on that recently so I've just been posting as I go. Haven't been doing nearly as well as the posts about steemit and helping new users but I never had delusions of being of mainstream interest to begin with and if I was in it for the money I wouldn't even be doing this (the project I'm working on) because it's thoroughly freaking exhausting! XD
Well I don't know why I'm telling you, you'd be familiar with all this, maybe I just needed to organise my thoughts or express it to someone else who gets it XD
Congratulations on the half century and good luck with the goal :D
Yeah, there are different ways you could go about doing it. Of course its a good idea to connect with more people, try searching for (and inviting new) sci-fi and fantasy fans.
If you have any stories written, you could serialize something, give us really small pieces every 2 or 3 days, like release a chapter over the course of a month at first, slowly introducing us to the world. Each one could have a sketch of a character or world, not necessarily a really perfect one, maybe just a rough draft for the time being, or maybe you can use the same one every time so we can identify that it's part of the same chapter or short story . I know I am really busy and focused on other things but I would love to find time to learn about the world you are creating, so shorter is good. I like what you did with your suicidal fairy character. I think if you keep it up with posts like this you'll be able to develop your characters and story while at the same time building more interest. It would be cool to see a few posts like this that are serialized and numbered in order though! It doesn't even have to be from the main story, just side stories to introduce the characters!
Once I get a few more followers I want to do feature posts on other steemians, I will be happy to do one on you.
I'm working on an animation so it will be a while coming as I have a lot of stuff to work around and there's just me (because I'm stupid like that XD). I have enough material to keep me going for a while and a hell of a lot more where that came from once I get through this first lot aaaaahhhhh.
That's pretty much what I'm doing right now, though it's a bit Pulp Fiction as far as chronology goes as I'm just drawing whatever I feel like at the time in between 3d-ing and everything else I get up to, no rhyme or reason behind it XD
