What is @techslut up to now? Why I barely publish posts lately

in blog •  7 years ago 

A few months back I vowed to myself that I would be posting daily and commenting lots to encourage other authors to steem on. Well, I've failed miserably. But it's not because Steem and Steemit are not a priority in my life. It's quite the contrary.

I love writing. I often say that writing is like breathing to me. I simply can't help it. While I breathe, I write. So where are the posts? Where are the new chapters of Mistress of Magic waiting for @isleofwrite editors to make readable? Unfortunately, all of these were deprioritized in the past week.

So what am I up to and where does all my time go?

(Pretty much this)

Marketing & Social Media at @utopian-io

The brilliant @elear and his team are amazing innovators and developers. What they are not is marketers and content writers. I am.

While the developers do their development thing and grow and improve the platform, I post the occasional update to the social media profiles, answer messages and mentions, and help create marketing content and other documents that are crucial to the success of this amazing project. So much to do, but so much potential there, I just can't keep away even though it comes at the expense of my art and free time.

Content Writing and Mayhem at @buildteam

Another amazing organization I am proud to be of is the @buildteam . This whacky group of professionals with a liking for cars and all things crypto occasionally entrusts me with texts to write and edit, as well as abusers and scammers who need a virtual spanking on Discord. I always regret missing the oportunity to educate those when @furious-one takes care of that business by his awesome self.

Israeli Steemit Community

Back in October, and with the encouragement of @amiramnoam , I created a Facebook group for Israeli steemians. I even announced it in a post. At first, it was a trickle. Steemit users like me who were looking for a local community in Israel were happy to find a group to belong to. And then came the flood. The rumor of this awesome blogging platform and friendly local community spread quickly, and the group now holds close to 400 members.

The meetup I organized at a pub in my town took place earlier this week. Even though train lines were closed, over 20 people showed up to socialize, drink, and exchange opinions and ideas about the future of Steemit.

Meetups are nice, but there's a lot more to do. I onboard new users in private conversations almost daily. I help admin our Discord channel and Whatsapp group in addition to the Facebook group I admin. Although I have @yairdd to save me from getting overwhelmed, it's still a lot of time and energy.

Small Achievements

I now have 5,000 SP of my own, making me a Dolphin. The majority is delegated out to newbies and @isleofwrite . In addition, I've passed 2500 followers this week. I'd like to thank each and every one that is not a bot.

Not thanking the bots. SMH.

Bots are people too!

Wait...

Bots have feelings too!

Or they will, one day.
When you ignore them, do they not rise and try again?
When you kick them, do they not auto-join the channel again?
When they follow you, do they not unfollow and follow until you scream at GINA to stop telling you of it?

The bots are coming.
And they'll remember this day, Ilana.

Bots do not forget.
Unless you use robots.txt. But only good robots listen to that. And we're not talking about the good robots here.

hahahah, they sure are!

Damn! I mean, I have a general idea of what you do, but seeing it all laid out like this? It's a LOT. And that's just the public stuff, amirite? I mean, we've got a thing that's unannounced, and I you have more things cooking that aren't yet ready for public consumption.

You are a Steemit beast. No doubt about that.

<3

I owe a lot of it to you, you know. No one has ever had as much faith in my writing as you have. Maybe @mrlightning , but you're actually qualified to judge. :)

I got on the bandwagon early. I may have helped build the bandwagon. But it's a pretty darn crowded wagon now! Lots of people believe in your writing!

Wow... that's a lot on your plate.
With so much else dominating your life, it has to feel good.
I can't believe you enjoy giving up control like that.
Submitting to the whims of so much, beyond your own desires?

OK, enough about you... when's it gonna be about me?
I need more Mistress Of Magic.

(seriously... cheers and good on you. Totally get that you give so much and spend time helping others here on Steemit: well done!)

I’d like to thank each and every one that’s not a bot.

😂

Yeah I made that typo too...

I really know what it is like to be busy. I try to post once a day but sometimes it might not get done. With spring coming, the garden needs to be prepped for planting and seeds started. Then I have the small house to get done, then there are all the AirCrette house builds to plan and get worked out. It is called life, just do what you can and move forward. Steem On!

Congrats on the wonderful achievements!
Keep on rocking the Steem world <2

Hahaha.

thank everyone who is not a bot

:P Funny

It's nice to see people doing so much effort for steemit. But yes it deserves it. Steemit deserves so much more.

That facebook group idea for your city/country is a good idea girl. I think we all should do that. I will give it a thought. Thanks for this.

We people from india as well keep meetups every now and then :D

Keep up the good work :)

You are awesome!!!!!!

Oh and I said like a month ago that my goal for the FB group is to have 500 members by the end of March, I think we can achieve that easily :)

You do so much! And for their compatriots and for the entire platforms! Keep it up, such people are like gold, I always admire those who are so energetic. This is an important time for Steemit now. It is leaders like you that the platform needs.

You are welcome ^^

Sounds like you have nothing to be apologetic about as far as the "barely publishing part" goes. Can't do it all!

Not so much apologetic as updating. People who aren't in direct contact with me might be wondering why I am so quiet. I am never quiet, unless I am brewing something. Or a number of somethings.

good poste tu as dit la vérité . alors il faut qu on se méfie de ça

"I love writing. I often say that writing is like breathing to me. I simply can't help it."

Well I can only say that when you do write for yourself it reads very smooth. You do have a talent for words :-)

I hope so! Words are my bread and butter.

And some jam to add I presume :-)
You got one more follower.

Jammin' in the free world. Or something. :)

Back atcha. Try not to depress me with too much news.

Haha It's New Stuff Today and we're mostly visual.
I posted something for you on my blog. Hope you like it.

Funny enough whenever I am not posting a lot on here it usually is really due to me just partying too hard...

what is she up to 💭 💭
☺, hope you doing good.
kindly check @project-atlas we need support madam

Your message is actually what prompted this post. I am so very busy I can only say I wish I had the time and extra SP to help another initiative. I do not. :(

i understand all that, especially steemit some how being hectic with its projects everywhere . but never worry cause the man above is our guild, you have really tried for all of your helps to. community, support is the major key and you have done that and we appreciate cause every community and project on steemit made this platform grow.

I still haven't checked utopian, don't even know what it is... neither do i know what busy is, guess i only know what steemit, dlive, dtube, zapple are...
BTW what sort of people should join the @buildateam discord? I don't think i can contribute anything to the project...

Well sometimes we set out to do things and fail at times, that however does not overshadow our accomplishments you're now a dolphins and hit past a 2.5k milestone, this is amazing in my perspectives, it will be heavens for me to achieve this

Just your upvote is enough to motivate people. Thanks for checking out my grow i appricate it. I always try to stop by people’s blogs that show me love to show love back, but sometimes i forget to do so since life gets busy. So steem on your making steem a great place!

I also try so hard to keep my steemit account active. Although at times i get too lazy but i still push myself. Great to see you making giant steps...Steem on... :)

A tiny upvote as we steem press on!
Between death and taxes who has time for it all?

Now that you are dolphin you should have no problem at all swimming in that ball pit. Just remember to come up for air from time to time.

Thanks for you support on a few of my recent posts! It means so much.
Perhaps consider adding me to your auto-upvotes if you value my content as creatively sound. I will continue to be a solid force on Steemit.

Take care @techslut
