Welcome to The (Almost) Daily Sneak!!!

Come for the crypto, stay for the community! We took a couple of days off, but we're back!

You can earn up to 5 SBD per accepted submission for guest curating The Daily Sneak. Submission requirements are published at the bottom of each edition of The Daily Sneak.

Today's guest curator is @randomwanderings.

Author Gene here. I am a Curie Curator and in my searching for exceptional content, I come across many great posts that might not fit the Curie guidelines. I hope to use The Daily Sneak as an outlet for some of these posts that still deserve more attention then they might be getting on their own.

The History of the Hammer Horror Industry.

A great history of The Hammer Horror Films put together by the author, @crazybgadventure, discussing everything from their beginnings over 80 years ago to the present day.

Ableton Live Jam - Paranoid Paranoia

Sticking with the horror theme a bit... This amazing original music from @tea-man started off giving me a Pink Floyd sort of vibe but then quickly shifted to be eerily reminiscent of a horror film score. It reminded me so much of Halloween III: Season of the Witch. Definitely enjoyable to just sit and listen to it.

A journey into somewhere most will never go. Don't try this at home! Wow, so dangerous, yet intriguing to watch and read as @praada ventures deeper into the mines.

Conclusion

I really enjoyed these selections curated by @randomwanderings. I always wonder how random his wanderings really are... but if they find content this great, does it really matter?

Submission Requirements

On to the submission requirements for The Daily Sneak:

1. You can choose from 2 to 5 articles for your entry. Submissions with only one selected article will be ignored.
2. All articles chosen for curation need to have been published within the last 5 days before your entry. It may take time for me to publish your curation, and curated articles need to be within the reward window when your submission is published.
3. You cannot submit your own post for curation. Selections from nsfw will not be accepted.
4. Selected posts should have less than $50 in total rewards and have not previously been curated by The Daily Sneak.
5. We try to spread the love around, so while selections from authors that have been highlighted before are welcome, they might not be included if the author's last inclusion was recent. Similarly, if you include two articles from the same author in one submission, we will typically highlight only one of the two.
6. Be sure to include your personal bio for me to introduce you to readers, and make sure that each selection has commentary. This can be just a few sentences about why you think the selection is worth our attention, or what is great about it - something that will make people want to click through the headline and check out the actual article. English is preferred, but other languages will be considered as long as English translation is included.
7. Please use this web form to submit your entry. https://goo.gl/forms/VH2MGIMEgqZmd9ef1
8. Including image links to the source article is not required (and we prefer to leave some mystery if photography is highlighted and the article has only one photo.) However, we like to include images in The Daily Sneak, and not including any image links may decrease the likelihood of your submissions being published.

If you include more than 2 articles in your submission and not all are approved for publication, your submission may still be published into an edition of The Daily Sneak, as long as at least 2 articles are approved. This could happen for several different reasons. If you are unsure why an article was cut, please review the submission guidelines again. If you are still unsure, feel free to ask politely why it was cut.

Submission Reward

A brief biography of each guest curator will be included in the edition that uses their submission. In addition, each guest curator will receive 1 SBD for each article from their submission that is highlighted in The Daily Sneak. That's up to 5 SBD for each accepted submission!

Right now @sneakyninja's upvote is not worth as much as we are paying for guest curation. Why do we pay so much for guest curation? We believe that quality curation is very important to Steem. Paying our curators well encourages them to spend more time reviewing content and picking out the best pieces!
