In any case, it would be better to include a picture, and have a parting word / signature at the end of it. Or else, it could look like a copy & paste job from some website.

Have fun!

Writings could take a while more to receive attention. Just continue your love for writing. We still need more people populating Steem to meet the supply and demand of all sorts of articles. Invite your friends!
