Hello @arturevans Hi from Hive and welcome to our bloggers paradise, we are thriving and now you came along and joined ! That’s great.

The beginning can be daunting but fear not all went through the same difficulties.

I have to warn you though, it’s highly addictive , but we will understand we are also addicted, not on the least because you decided to join! So again Welcome to the Hive.

It’s a true movement and blockchain, and I love that you decided to join us here. You will have fun blogging and vlogging I promise.

For all interests there is a community place where you can meet , read and leave your written piece. Gotta be fair it’s not a GET RICH QUICK thing here! the beginning it’s hard and new and maybe you need help. We have amazing people here on the platform that help in discord if you need it. I love blogging, been here for three years already. But one important warning always be carefull with all your passwords, Never give those up !! I speak from experience !

Good luck with with hive experience and I Will See you around and may you find here what you are looking for. Just remember that all good things come in good time and never giving up is THE key to big succes on the Blockchain. Also you could join the the Terminal discord, as I said before we help there with problems or questions, for free don’t worry. Or visit @heyhaveyamet for more new arrivals, all are in the same phase that might be helpful or reassuring. Newbie exposure in the beginning is very important, so looking up friends in the same stage might be a good thing.
