Nice work on your first post. Welcome to steemit. It can be a fun ride. Keep am eye out for the communities you can join. It's the best way to keep steemit fun for you. Here's a few you can check out:

#whalepower, @minnowpond @minnowsupport, #mydailypost.
Also if you write an #introduceyourself and or #introducemyself post with your picture and a "hi steemit "sign with the date in the sign. You'll get a lot of responses automatically. Just use it wisely cause those tags are limited how many times you can use it. :) Good luck and welcome.
