Hello there.
Thank you to @anikekirsten for nominating me to take part in the Chart Your Course challenge, started by @dreemsteem. I'm very new to Steemit and right now, writing is more of a hobby than a career for me. But here goes.
What is your Steemit goal?
My Steemit goal is to use the platform as another way to show my work. Making money from it would be nice but ultimately, that's a bonus.
Prioritize these three aspects of Steemit for you:
- Posting
- Curating
- Commenting
Posting is my main priority, followed by commenting and then curating.
Name up to 5 groups/communities that help you to achieve your goal:
On Discord, I'm a member of two writing groups;
- The Writer's Block
- Scribes and Scribblers
I found Steemit through The Writer's Block and the help and editing advice I've received from the other members have been a big boost to my confidence. Thank you for that.
Name at least one measurable future goal for:
1 month: To reach my 15,000 word goal for Camp NaNo and complete the second draft of Daydream Express.
3 months: To finally finish recording and editing my audiobook for The Adventures of Henrietta and start work on editing Sam's Diary.
6 months: I'll have started university then. I'd like to have Sam's Diary ready to publish, but we'll see how the editing goes. I have another book idea that I'd like to start planning too.
12 months: Admittedly, I haven't got that far yet. It depends on how buried I am in university work.
Name your favourite dessert:
Either raspberry cheesecake or cherry pie with custard.
Challenge 3-5 people to chart their course:
I nominate @tinypaleokitchen, @bex-dk and @therosepatch.
Best wishes for university and the books. You've got this.

Lovely!!!! As I was reading, I just kept nodding my head in agreement!!!
Well... Not about university... That's long past for me! Hahaha
But your outlook, your focus...
even down to Daydream Express.... Hmmmmm curiosity strikes!!!! Lolol my name IS dreemsteem, after all 😉
But I won't peek into whatever that is... until I finish writing my story that involve "dreEms" 😉 I am way too susceptible to other ideas when I'm writing and I never realize it early enough hahahhaa
I love that you're already using Steemit, and I'm sure that as your work in University increases, it will become more difficult to balance Steemit life. My hope is that you'll find even small bits of time to dedicate to your craft and stay active on Steemit, as you can!
I'm so glad that you did this challenge and I hope it becomes useful as a map to keep you on the right course!!! 😊

Thank you! Daydream Express is very much a WIP right now and it'll need a lot of editing when it's finished. But I'm staying optimistic.
As far as Steemit goes, I'm still pretty clueless, but I'm sure I'll pick it up as I go along.
Thank you for setting this challenge up. It made me think about what I want to achieve over the next year. I'm also curious about your story involving dreams...
Good luck to you in achieving your goals.

Ahhhh not dreams.... dreEms 😉
And I think we are all pretty clueless on steemit hahahaha but we do keep learning one day at a time! So you're in grand company! 😊
And you're more than welcome to take a look if you like!

It's also a work in progress.. but I don't think it will ever be published. I'm choosing to tell a story on Steemit, acknowledging that there are serious limitations in doing so.... But very much preferring the benefits of storyteller/storylistener interaction!!!
That's a pretty sweet benefit of Steemit that's typically lost when you publish IRL.
I guess it just depends on those goals we listed hehehe
By the way... If you do take a peek, it might be a little confusing to read starting at chapter 6. But there are links at the bottom of chapter 6 for previous chapters. No pressure! Just an honest suggestion 😊
Most are past their payout and I like that just fine. Let's people know I value their interaction, not just their upvote 😉
