Thanks for the mention. And that bread does look tasty. I made banana bread tonight but didn't post a picture. Perhaps tomorrow when I turn it into french toast.

There is a bit of a bread community on Steem. I just use a bread machine, but it's good to have it totally fresh.

Thanks for the shoutout @steevc, always glad to have my content acknowledge and get a little more support in this blockchain that we are building! It's support like this that keeps me in the blockchain and makes me want to keep grinding away and powering up more and more STEEM! Thanks so much! Glad to be part of the family :)

Some say it's just about the money, but we need more than that. It's the people who keep me coming back

I followed all your peeps. Few are posting daily, and few are posting to contests and challenges. These would be my two strongest suggestions for all of them.

Freewrite, photo challenges, contests, are all good ways to get posts out quick.

Also esteem and share2steem give good upvotes to newer accounts.

Getting on twitter is another good idea for new accounts. We have a few big guys out there tweeting #steem and giving support to newer accounts.

I'm so glad to see this initiative, @steevc. The more people succeeding here, the better.

I don't have time to keep up with all of them, but I'll look out for those who post on topics I'm into. We have to keep it fun for us too. Thanks for supporting this.

I can keep up with few here. I just got ginabot and it helps, but there is still so much to do. I am always having fun. Hence, my name :)

Hi, Thanks for the follow!
While I was unemployed I managed to post every day, but now I have a job again (and the gig-going has increased again) I'm lucky to get three out a week. Time is the enemy. I'm trying to discipline myself to write faster and finish at least one sentence without distracting myself...

That bread does look nice!

I'll make a point of checking out some of those people.

Great contribution in the Discord show yesterday btw.

Can't believe I'm still a red fish! Really need to climb up the food chain from now on ... uhm... bad example! ;-)

Your posts are doing well, so just keep it up

Good session last night, you did come across as quite nervous.. but as I said to you.. 'much better than I could do'. I went through some of those potentials today and found some good ones.

I'm a lot more confident speaking then I would have been a few years back. I've done lots of music performances and you have to go for it

You're doing a great job, guys. To help the minnows to bloom is great, they are the future of steem and like the baby plants we have to take care of them! In my daily upvotes I pay attention to the minnows because I think they need to stay motivated to be here , more than the older ones. There are a lot of interesting minnows to follow ^_^

There are lots of great minnows, but the big people tend to get the attention. I'd love to see more creative people like you doing well on Steem.

Those are a great group of people you mentioned there. I need to try to make an effort to reach out to some of the smaller accounts. I actually kind of still consider myself small, but I know that isn't the case all thing considered. Cool to see a fellow @helpie gave you some support!

Looks like I missed your "brainstorming" post, but thanks for the mention! :D

This is a really cool projects you are starting, already followed a few of the mentions here.

Cheers. If you converted most of your Steem Dollars to Steem and powered up you would become a minnow. We want as many people as possible to do that to show their belief in Steem and make the numbers look better.

yeah, I've been very conservative with my SBD/STEEM movements. Now that STEEM is lowly priced I should follow your advice.

You could power down again if you really need it, but it's not a great time to be selling. May as well power some up to help others and earn a little more from curation.

BTW you should give the votes to other people who need them rather than me. I get my share anyway.

OK, thanks! I never powered down so far, sort of defeats the purpose of growing on the platform (at least for now), and yeah powering up now is good advice

BTW you should give the votes to other people who need them rather than me.

:D

That's the spirit! I think we can make a lot more minnows in the next few months. We aim to make 250 in the next month.

I was under the impression that minnows were the lowest rank, so I'm reading all the posts I can find on this initiative with the aim of getting up there
Thanks to everyone who created it for supporting we redfish

I'm not sure if everyone below a certain level was classed as minnows originally, but then there are a lot of accounts doing nothing, so now it takes some work to earn that title. We are doing what we can to improve Steem.

Followed a bunch of the mentioned people, and was followed by a few as well - so all good!
Sorry I missed the meet-up - maybe next time, as it's not that far from work...

I'm sure there will be more meetups and that's a good venue. Our efforts to boost the minnows are going well :)
