Chapter One. INTRODUCTION

in introduceyourself •  7 years ago  (edited)

This is my first ever post on Steemit, so I guess I'll just introduce myself.

My name is Korina, otherwise kind of known as tinymischiefs, I'm 26 and I live in Lithuania.  I work as a senior specialist in a money service business' operational centre and am a clumsy, self-taught (and still learning) illustrator/doodler of sorts, who also likes to edit videos in my spare time and be creative in general. (And write long-ass sentences, so sorry in advance).


I was always doodling stuff, in boring meetings at work or on sandwich bags for my boyfriend to take to work. You know, stuff like that. But just recently I started posting my illustrations online.

I draw both digitally and traditionally and I looove drawing puns, although I don't limit myself to it. Sometimes I might throw in a portrait, a fashion sketch, a minimalistic doodle or maybe I'll just go wild and post a photograph. Who knows, right? Endless possibilities. Oh wait, no, but please don't expect a painting. Some markers, maybe, but no paintings, otherwise every inch of my flat and body would be drenched in paint, the whole situation involving some kind of a paint splashing accident, a graceless falling down, a lot of shouting and an unknown flying dog for some reason. I once actually broke my finger while painting. Weeeell, it was mostly like that (maybe I'll tell you about it some other time).


I've learned about Steemit primarily from my boyfriend nematosi who told me, if I remember correctly: 

'I think you should definitely join Steemit, it's a great place for you to be as an artist and content creator'. 

So after reading about it for a bit and watching a couple of videos on youtube I'm just thrilled to join in and see the amazing things that you people create and share here. Before I started posting here, I sat down, opened my notebook and thought what topics interest me and what I want to post, and that's what I came up with (although the list is probably non exaustive): 


If I needed to describe myself in 3 words I'd say clumsy and quirky ('and' is a word!) I also loove food, although I'm not too keen on making it myself. I sort of like going outside, but only if it's not raining. If it is, I prefer just stay inside wrapped in a blanket since I'm apparently a lizard person who is cold ALL.THE.TIME

I unfortunately don't do great when it comes to catching up with friends. Probably that has something to do with me being an introvert. Oh, but don't be fooled by my innocent looks and uncomfortable silence if we're ever in a room together - once I get to know a person, I turn around 180 degrees and become this unstoppable-overly excited-word blurting-three year old-thing.

My favorite pet in the world (that also happens to be my spirit animal) is a hedgehog. I don't own one now, but I'm intensely thinking about it (and you know, if you really really really think about something, and do absolute squat about it, it happens right? Right? haha).


Aside from Steemit, my TinyMischiefs account can also be found on Facebook and Instagram so you can feel free and follow me there. I also have a shop on RedBubble where I sell stuff with my designs on it. My personal instagram account is here.


So yeah, hi everyone, that's me and I really look forward to this incredible journey ahead!

XX, Tiny Mischiefs

Hello tinymischiefs! Welcome to Steemit! Hope you'll like the community here. As a start, here are 5 tips that we believe will be helpful to you:

  1. Keep your passwords safe: Unlike conventional sites, Steemit has 4 types of passwords. Each offers varying degrees of access to your account, so know where and when to use each of them. Also, make sure to keep them all safe and secure.
  2. Get Steem rewards: When writing a post, you'll have the option to choose how to receive your reward: "Default 50%/50%" or "Power Up 100%". As of this moment, choosing Default 50%/50% is the better option. But this can change over time. Check our post to know more.
  3. Upvote wisely: When upvoting, wait at least 30 minutes after the post is published to maximize your curation reward. Also, make sure not to upvote too much too fast so as not to drain your voting power.
  4. Know your Steem, Steem Dollars and Steem Power: Steem and Steem Dollars are the 2 main currencies here. Convert and power up more Steem into Steem Power so you can have higher values on your upvotes.
  5. Have Fun and Enjoy!

That is so nice of you, thanks!

Welcome to Steemit! I love your "purramid" drawing; it is so clever and cute! Do you produce music, by chance...? I ask because of the photo where you're standing at a mixing board with the t-shirt proclaiming "Less Drama, More Techno" (which I love!). There are quite a few musicians on the Steem blockchain, which is why I'm curious! Let us know if you have any questions or need help getting situated here! 😊

Thanks for the warm welcome @thekittygirl! I love the purramid as well :)
And about music - um, no, not any more. I used to play more music a few years ago, although I was never actually making music myself :)
