is a private curation project begun by an unnamed Steemian to honor the exceptional posts she finds in her Steemit travels. The content here will feature a good number of posts from The Steem Engine group in Discord. Their customary post is titled The Daily Whistle Stops.
The unnamed Steemian is the curator there, and in that work she finds quite a few posts that are casual, interesting, well-written, helpful or just fun to experience (sometimes writers, sometimes musicians, sometimes artists), but because they are up against such stiff competition that day in submissions to The Steem Engine they can't be included in The Daily Whistle Stops. They also tend to be short, easy to read, easy to digest ... or maybe they just offer something special.
So, she brings them here and finds them a home -- because they deserve more than just a quiet decline and death ... an experience that is already all too common in Steemit. (I know I don't need to tell you that, but it's true!) Sometimes, there may be outside content, too ... from other intriguing people she follows. Sweet little "feature story" experiences and fun artistic moments of all kinds have their place in life -- and on Steemit, too. Please stop in and visit these guys ... and if you enjoy their work, show them you care.
I ... and they ... thank you more than you'll ever know.
You can find The Daily Whistle Stops at @thesteemengine -- and there is information there and here at the bottom of this post telling you how to apply to join. There is also another curation project run by both the unnamed Steemian and @catweasel on his blog. It's called The Magnificent Seven and it, too, features exceptional content we find on our Steemit journey. Each of these projects has its own theme, tone and focus. You will find things in both that are worth your time and effort -- and excellent new people to follow. I offer all these suggestions with pride. I know they will enrich your day.

these are links to other worthwhile curation projects.
@catweasel does a project very similar to this one called The Magnificent Seven. It is published every couple of days or so on his blog. There are about 27 of them so far.
@ethandsmith is doing podcasts about other pieces he enjoyed from The Steem Engine's membership. Look for ones like this ---> The STEEM Engine Express Episode 17 There are (obviously) others available.
The Daily Whistle Stops -- found at the @thesteemengine account publishes one of the best general audience curation collections on Steemit if I do say so myself. Go ahead, ask me about it. I'll be happy to say it again. There are about 105 posts to enjoy at the moment. The group itself is astonishingly new for the amount of raw talent assembled there. If you create exceptionally fine content and especially if you consider it undervalued, check this out. It could change your whole Steemit adventure!
@goldendawne is the head writer for The Daily Qurator. Again, if you're a producer of quality content on Steemit, you might want to join @qurator ... if you haven't already. They make it worth your while and they're a lot easier than I am to get along with.
@fiberartists has recently come home again to Steemit and is making a comfy nest for herself in several locations. One is *Fiber Ramble -- a weekly curation project devoted to one of her personal passions needlework and fiber-arts-and-crafts. Stop in and see what she's discovered this week ... and maybe contribute some art of your own!
@paddlingnature is a blog that started out to be a celebration of kayaking around in the wilderness by one woman with a sense of adventure and a love of nature, but it turns out she's discovered she really likes curating a lot. So while it lasts, you will make some wonderful discoveries of other blogs and interesting Steemians to follow ... just by reading her posts. Stop in and sample some treasures -- and encourage her to keep going!
Finally, @shadowspub does the redoubtable grandmother of all curation efforts on Steemit, The Steemit Ramble. You can find plenty of issues from it on her blog. She also hosts a Thursday discord feature (twice every Thursday, so you have a chance to catch at least one) Pimp Your Post Thursday. You can find out more about it also on her blog

Nice to see that @theinbox is alive and well, thanks for including my daily dose in this edition. Very much appreciated.

Well, we kind of ran out of material when Steem dipped so low. Submissions were down. Nobody felt like making much effort, I guess. They've picked back up some lately. Not as much as I'd hoped, but maybe people need a jump-start to get moving again. Still, there's been enough to fill up the inbox -- and tidy things up in a nice little post. I bring a lot of my favorites here, just so I don't lose them. I'm funny that way.

Well it is good that things are picking up, it does give you a better selection to chose from and the price of steem is going up. Have your own little filing system eh, pretty smart on your part.
until we meet again,

I'd like to say that scene looks way familiar. Only you don't have enough cats. I don't envy you though, trying to keep white hair off that dark sofa. I throw old sheets over ours. (The sofa, that is. I tried throwing sheets over the cats, but they just wiggled free. Gave me dirty looks, too. They have no sense of humor.) But the sheets come off every few days, get replaced, get washed ... repeat, repeat, repeat. I've learned it's the only way.

Our cats kind of tore up our couches. We figured they might not last long with crazy kids and pets and we were right. They still look okay at the moment. We got them dark so they don't show stains! Ha. The dogs stay off the couches so that helps with hair there...and we have the kids regularly vacuum because white hair is all over our house...especially when Kuru sheds!!

I must have 150 tabs open of things I need to read that I've saved through the week ... and the week before ... and the week before that. If my browser ever crashes, I'm a goner. No kidding. Don't forget to come back. You'll miss out on good stuff.

I know it's tough to get seen at all in Steemit. That feeling that you're just shouting into the wind can kill your motivation dead ... dead ... dead. So evidence someone actually read your stuff and thought it was great can be a literal life-saver. That's where I come in.

I am often astonished (more and more it seems) at some of the stuff our writers turn out. I'm a pretty good writer myself, so I am both an especially tough and and especially appreciative reader. And to watch people grow and change simply through the process of writing is fascinating. For that, I have a front-row seat.
