Just a quick one today. Yesterdays blog took me hours... I cant be dealing with too much of that!
Typically it managed to generate more rewards than my previous weeks blogging but Im not sure whether that was because of the improved content, or whether it was just the title that captured the votes, or whether its just blind luck? Who knows maybe I could write 3 words and get my highest payment ever? .... Im not genna risk that....not just yet...
Im writing for #HiveBloPoMo which is an initiative to get people blogging this April

And the rest.....
As ever I appreciate your upvotes. Every little helps (in the immortal words of Tesco supermarket). I think these posts are all still live so feel free to flick back through them and spread your Hivey love all over my wallet.

Dragon quest today. I love the dragons! It seems I had success combining dragon and fire today. How classic.
Why do people still use big health monsters in the equalizer ruleset? It gives my exploding dwarf insane amounts of POWER!

Very satisfying victory beating Grum Flameblade with a Quix Life-sneak combo. All I had to do was keep repairing my armour...

Beaten by a very impressive defensive low mana team

A nice chonky battle where Grum takes the brunt of their magic damage while I take out the backline in various devious dragony ways

7 consecutive days of blogging
Dont you feel exhilarated? enlightened? Inspired?
I don't blame you. I don't exactly either. I feel tired....and like I have to clean my house. I may not even manage a blog tomorrow because I have a weekend of socialising to do so I'll probably be away. I dont crypto on my phone. It would tax my soul too much.
BUT there we go. That was my first week of consistent hive blogging.... EVER probably, in 5 years of loitering and lurking. Im fairly sure I never did 7 posts on 7 consecutive days so thats an achievement of sorts. Good old me.
Maybe I'll do it again next week....
Maybe this is the last time I ever blog....
Who knows?
The anticipation must be killing you!
I've managed to qualify for #HiveBloPoMo without intentionally trying this month. I just post most days anyway. I did it previously by powering up small amounts some days. I just like getting badges.
Do you play @risingstargame? It doesn't require much time and you could get your music into it. I want to see a Basil card there!
I need to do my #FollowFriday post later.
Have some !PIZZA
I think you've had the right work ethic from the start steev!
I managed to get my sister in to rising star, I think she still plays it most days. So maybe I can surreptitiously sneak my music in through her account! haha
If you do start playing I can send you a few cards. It's free to play anyway. Thousands of players now and I'm 8th in the league.
8th! my goodness
You could become a professional Esportsman at that rate!
LOL. I don't think people would really want to watch me playing as I click a button a few times each day. I know various people do live streams talking about it, but I don't watch those.
It can be overwhelming at some points.
Passion for your subject of work will surely keep you writing daily.
thanks for the supportive comment my friend : )
I guess my passion must be a bit fickle and spontaneous, which is why I find it easiest to freewrite! That way I dont get bogged down and blocked trying to articulate a certain subject
