I think you can expand a bit further on this comment @taliakerch, and turn it into your next post! lol

That's really the thing though. With other sites such as facebook, people are not generally looking for a monetary reward. Many of them (granted, not the ones retweeting/facebooking their every bowel movement, who seem more interested in the attention lol ) are just posting about things they know about and are passionate about.

On STEEMIT, you're basically expanding on those posts and ideas, and presenting them to an even wider potential audience that can potentially reward you if they like and appreciate your work. And granted, there's an "ebb and flow" just like with everything else, from life, to the markets, to those who read your posts, right down to your "writing inspiration". It's best not to force it, and just "go with the flow" of how you feel. If you get stuck, try writing about that!

And who knows, but it might just turn out to be one of your most "appreciated" posts, a "work of art from the heart" that many others relate to as well! :)
