This week, my beau brought up a very important concept in his first few days surfing with his new Steemit profile: You post a lot of content on Steemit, how can people see it all?
Good question, bae!
Truthfully, I like posting as much as I do but I have this nagging suspicion that because I post so much, many of my posts get lost in the shuffle. Whether it's my followers having a full-feed at prime time, if I'm not using the right categories, or I am simply posting something you don't care about when you do feel like engaging.
In an effort to combat some of my work being lost to payout-oblivion, I'm trying something new:
Weekly Compilations
Similar to my blog's newsletter, consider this my weekly dispatch of my compiled published works on Steemit. Some weeks I focus more on the Slow Rolling Home, others are dedicated to iniatives like Ladies of Steemit and Women Taking Leaps. I'm even dabbling in beverage recipes and travel blogging...
As my blog grows on Steemit, I hope the posts you enjoy the most reach you when you want to read them! Here are my published works from this past week - and the first of the Weekly Compilations dispatches.
Week of February 5 - 11, 2018

Ladies of Steemit, Volume 3 | The Female Perspective
This week, we're seeing the world through a woman's eye in four very distinct photographic personalities. Steemit has a flourishing photography community that sees creativity without bounds, and these four women each make exemplary contributions to the Steemit art experience.

This week's freewriting prompts took me to many places, including Santa Monica, through Renoir's garden, and down Memory Lane...
How to Spend a Day in Santa Monica
As a primer, Santa Monica is a small portion of Los Angeles, near Venice Beach. I chose to visit Santa Monica for one street: Abbot Kinney Blvd. This is the coolest, local-business-filled shopping and 'seeing' district in Los Angeles (in my opinion) and I only had one day... so I spent it there. Read the full post...
Additional freewriting adventures this week:
- My Father the Antique Dealer | 5 Minute Freewrite, Day 109
- Essence of This Afternoon | 5 Minute Freewrite, Day 111
Though this one wasn't inspired by a prompt, I published Poem ~ Self Portrait as an ode to my endless frustration with curating life/social media.
@Photocontests Entries
annike, sun goddess | portrait photography
One of my dear friends modeled for me on the beach in downtown St. Petersburg, and now she is pregnant and newly married to the love of her life!
I also shared a photo of my new mantra on the back of my favorite magazine for Red/Monday and my adorable greyhound Gallow for an entry to Animal Photography. Gallow is a retired race dog from Derby Lane in St. Petersburg, Florida.
Thank you for another wonderful week on Steemit!
Celebrating my first month on this platform was quick and joyful, though I hope to write a post about my first month's experience soon. Stay tuned next week for Slow Rolling Home updates, another installment to the Steemit Beginner's Series, and another installment each for #LadiesofSteemit and Women Taking Leaps!
