When you first introduced me to Steemit outside Max in Skellefteå I had no idea of what would come out of that short conversation. To be honest I did not believe that it would work as well as it has. You were talking about making a living from posting on steemit and I did not believe that would be possible, at least not in as short a time as it has been - it's less than a year later now!
You have made it big here on steemit and I am very happy for you!
I still have a long way to go, but I haven't done anything as crazy as the Steemit Roadshow to get noticed either. I do believe, just as you say, that the only good way of growing is to let it happen organically, one comment and follower at the time.
