I have accepted a mission: to explore strange new blogs, to seek out new posts and new minnows, to boldly go where no Steemian has gone before! yes, I'm a geek...

The Mission

I will be trawling through this very platform hunting out those hidden gems, the undiscovered countries of newly arrived promising authors, freshly spawned minnows if you like. I wish to put a spotlight on those I think are deserving of a much wider audience.

I have decided to write these posts Monday to Friday, so expect 5 per week.

This week's first pick goes to @sammosk

https://steemit.com/poetry/@sammosk/the-egg-and-the-hydra-an-original-work

His posts are always well written and thought provoking, I particularly enjoy his pieces on philosophy.

Next up is @pulpworx - selected for the Sci-fi series ELRON AHURA - Space Detective 2369 AD

A great read if you are a fan of good old fashioned sci-fi dime novels of yesteryear.

@choogirl is a recent arrival to Steemit, originally from Australia but now living in Panama.

She has a great sense of humour and her posts reflect that, especially this one regarding the Steemwars currently underway.

@thedgt joined just yesterday and I was quite taken with his writing.

https://steemit.com/fiction/@thedgt/nicholas-nettle-s-curious-trip-to-nowhere-chapters-1-5-11-000-words-of-original-fiction-i-would-really-appreciate-some-feedback

Here he presented a great read, an original fantasy story he asked for feedback on in order to improve as a writer.

Please check out their blogs and, if you agree with me, give them a follow. I am sure they will appreciate it and your feed will be filled with more great work in the future.

Do you know of any undiscovered gems worthy of sharing? An artist, writer, blogger or singer/performer who could benefit from appearing in these regular posts? Drop me a message in Steemit chat with a link to their work and I will consider them for future inclusion.

I have also begun a #steemgig where I will pay you 5 SBD for every post submitted by you that I feature on these posts.

See below for details.
