Dan, I am in for the long haul with my project as this platform is the only of its kind that has ever compelled me to participate. That being said, it is somewhat difficult to have a clear understanding of exactly how things work. Doing what I do, not knowing the operational parameters can be wickedly deadly so I try my best to gain as much knowledge as possible. I have had a rather difficult time in gaining information about best practices with regards to creating content for the steemit platform.

I dearly want to participate and grow with the platform, and to do this it would be very helpful if there was some forum for authors / content creators to be able to gain very precise and clear knowledge of how to work within the operational parameters... information that is simply / clearly not available and for the novice in this platform such as I, very confusing.
