I don't have time for whale hunting and all of that. I just write! Over time I follow people I think are interesting, read their stuff, and write my own stuff. I'm interested in building communities and relationships with people on here.
The reason I don't use my real name is that I'm a pastor, and I think my church members would think it's weird that I'm getting paid a bit for these writings. I think they'd think it's odd.
Also, I'm a very curious person and have lots of interests, so I can't write about a lot of things on my personal "ministry-related" blog. So, here, on Steemit, I actually feel quite free to write about whatever interests me. People can google my name and not bump into these writings.
Anyhow, have a great rest of your Tuesday!
