Welcome to steemit! I found your post through @thehoneys entry to the ongoing Pay it Forward Curation Contest. Here is the link if you're interested in joining us.

I also belong to several Discord groups here that welcome, support, mentor new and not-so-new folks here. I'd be happy to pass on some invite links if you're interested. Establishing community is key I think to being successful here, or at the very least, it'll keep you company when you need it :) Cheers!
