I opened my steemit account July, 2019. Then I did not really understand what it was all about, so my engagement on the platform was very low until 2021 when my brother @ezunjoshy gave me a few hints on how it works and what to do. Ever since then, I have been trying to do one thing or the other.

The platform was recommended to me by my brother @ezunjoshy.

I am a member of the freewrite community and also a member of the world of xpilar community. I hope to join more communities in the near future.

Not yet.
I am mostly a member in the communities I participate in, but I hope to do more this year and reach out to other communities, connect and make friends.

I do not sell all my steem, I am more interested in the future plan. So, I keep my power growing. I sell liquid steem only on emergencies, maybe when my device needs a quick fix etc.

I mostly do writing that will motivate others, this is what I have been doing for a while now. I draw too, but I have not really had the time to draw these past few weeks. So, the writing has been my mainstay. I receive votes most times, few friends come around and sometimes they don't.

I have received upvotes a few times from curator but it is mostly because of the comments. When some of my post are engaging and the comments keep coming in, the curator would send his/her regards.

Well, I get a few engaging comments once in a while. @wakeupkitty is quite engaging too. I try to reciprocate most times to make the community lively and throw in a few votes too.

Then I was skeptical about the restrictions on some communities, this led me to stay put in the few community I know are safe so I won't be looking for trouble. But I hope to try out new communities, it will really help my work and exposure.

I will also say the introduction of a few games will help the engagement of the community, like in the freewrite angle, we do daily prompt. You write on a topic provided to you in 5mins and it is really interesting. This attracted me to the community.

@xpilar also tries some uplifting and engaging games and contest too. I participate in the story writing for some of his digital art, it's quite engaging and inspiring.

I believe if the community can do more of this games, it will help the community grow.

Thank you @xpilar for giving us this opportunity to share our steemit experience, it really gives a thought back memory lane and helps me see the things that needs to be done or corrected.
