Hi Everyone!!
This is my official application for The Alliance. ( #thealliance)
Now you all do realize that #snookmademedoit
So anything I say that is not in line with what would or should be expected from a serious person is her fault!
Just making sure this is made clear prior to answering the three questions.
Where did u hear about us?
Well, I would say "Blame 
I heard about the alliance back many moons ago, while I was in the Team Australia chat room, when someone mentioned how they had been accepted into the alliance.
I read a bit about it and figured, "Well, I'm no novelist, so I guess it's not for me".
However as time has gone past, I see that people are beginning to catch on to the fact of how 99.999999% of people on this earth are no Shakespeare or Stephen King or Harper Lee.
Lucky for them, because if everyone who thought they were a "good writer" were to be anywhere near the great writers that we all know and admire, then these writers would just be average and not worth mentioning!
So, now that I actually see and believe that the majority of us are getting a little more realistic and mature about our "expectations" of average Jo Blo's like myself and I see that The Alliance has become a lot more than what some people presented it as "Just for fantastic mind blowing post writers" I can actually see myself as a member.
Which gets me to question2.
Why do you wanna be here?
Well, once again, because #snookmademedoit.
But apart from that obvious reason which I shall keep yelling for ever, mainly because it is kinda true, I believe that what The Alliance has become is something that I agree with.
"People helping people"
Isn't and shouldn't be an "obligation" it should be natural, a normal part of life for every person.
We can understand that people have lives full of obligations that can detour us from the things we want to do and we are not robots. Something that I see is understood by the members of The Alliance.
So yeah, not only does all this fit into what I believe in, but it also in many ways fits in with how I try to do things.
Easy to talk the talk, but walking the walk can be a tough one on all of us and it is a lot easier when you know that there are others out there who understand and are willing to be there for you when you stumble along the way.
Hell, we all know how popular people are when everything is going right, but we all also know how tough and lonely it becomes when you don't make it or when you do fall over and SHTF. Man, do we all know it!
So yeah, this is exactly WHY I would like to hang out with like minded people.
Ohhhh yeah, and did I mention the fact that "snookmademedoit ?
What do you feel you can contribute to the platform/alliance?
Me, myself and I.
With all my qualities and all my quirks.
Not much more that I have to offer.
I know it's not much, but heck, it is what it is, either take it or leave it.
Surely, that is the most honest and sincere answer I can give to this question without talking about all the stuff I have done and plan on doing and how I believe it could all fall in line with most of/a lot of what The Alliance is.
People are what matter and yes, this old bugger Jack Miller is no robot or superhuman.
I can only offer to be who and what I am, to do what I honestly feel I can do without making empty promises.
One step at a time, "step by step" as I have often said.
and if you do accept me into The Alliance, know that whenever I do anything wrong I shall always mention the fact that #snookmademedoit !
Just so you all know in advance!
Now, seriously, without the formalities.
I am working towards achieving a number of goals, among which many shall be of good to many Steemians.
& what better way to make sure the most is made of them, then to share them with supportive people who understand what reality is!
So there it is in the short version.
Everything is a lot easier in life and better for everyone if we have good, hard working people in our company!
Thanks for reading and don't forget, #snookmademedoit.
