My Future Steemit Plans

The few of you who read my blog regularly have probably noticed my infrequent posting the last couple months. I'm here to talk a little bit about what's been going on with that, and what my plans for the future on Steemit are.

For much of this year, I actually ended up using Steemit as my primary source of income. It was, well, really nice. Got to set my own hours and write stuff I'm interested in. (Which is a huge change from your normal writing gig.) Lately, though, with the price of Steem declining, I simply haven't been able to afford to dedicate my time to Steemit in that way- gotta find some way to pay the bills. (It didn't help that my internet access went from top notch to slow as hell lately.) I picked up a few extra writing gigs here and there to help pay my way, though that wasn't enough on its own. I ended up actually having to start powering down my Steem Power, which is pretty unfortunate. On top of all that, I ended up moving as well, after horrid amounts of mold were discovered lurking in the vents and walls of my old place. So that was a lot of stress and a lot of money.

I've actually ended up picking up a real person, leave the house job. Which, ugh, leaving the house is the worst. It should be able to help me get back on my feet relatively fast, at least. The secret project that I've alluded to a few times before on Steemit is also chugging along- with any luck, I'll start making some money off that as well soon. (Still can't give any details, except that it's another writing project!)

I'm currently planning to start posting on Steemit much more regularly again. I won't have the time to do many science posts, given how time intensive they are. (Except for my weekly Nature Identification posts- those will be back pretty soon.) There'll be a few science posts still, but not a lot. You can, however, expect a lot more book related posts from me. And, with any luck, maybe an announcement about the secret project.
