Thanks a mil. Consistency is just habit. Free writing could start you off as you have something to potentially post about everyday and they don't have to be overly verbose. Then pick some communities you are interested in and start posting and engaging there.
It took a good while to build the momentum, but once it's built, you create the habit and can continue growing and eventually the curation rewards become more noticeable.
