Welcome @jasonjohn!
I recommend that you change the first tag of this post from "newbie" to "introduceyourself". You'll get noticed a lot more then😉.
I'm a Steemit newbie myself : I started 6 days ago. Do you want to come over and check out my stories? Maybe we can help each other grow bigger!
Good luck with your future posts👍
thanks for the advice. sure we can
