Hi Steemit! I'm Echo

BY: @echo-bat | CREATED: Sept. 29, 2017, 3:09 a.m. | VOTES: 109 | PAYOUT: $6.59 | [ VOTE ]

Hi, Steemit! My name is Echo. Happy to be here.

Thanks @web-gnar for showing me the glory of Steemit!

I guess I should attempt to describe myself. Let's seee...

I'm a creative person. I like to make music, draw, paint, write, book-bind, collage, sew, and basically just create things with my hands.

Some books I've made:

Some things that I like:
* adventures big & small
* dreams & psychic experiences
* punk & post-punk
* open-minded people
* tiny things
* Italian beef sammiches from Johnny's
* pink hairs
* when a president is black
* encounters with ghosts
* learning about the brain
* books
* skateboarder-conspiracy-theorist-artists with French names
* the maxxx
* lord of the rings
* star trek
* archery
* cryptocurrency
* Earth's animals
* reading tarot cards
* cooking rice
* especially autumn

Some things I dislike:
* cilantro
* people who have become evil
* fakeness
* dusty wind
* bloated sacks of protoplasm
* my ankle hurts
* a side of fresh fruit that is mostly melon chunks
* high-heeled ankle boots
* alopecia
* 9 to 5

I'm not exactly sure what I will be posting here on Steemit, but... I think I'd like to treat this as a sort of creative journal. To share creative projects and things that I find inspiring with the people of Steemit.
I learn a lot of interesting facts at work, so I'd like to share some of those with you, too. For example, today I learned that Batu Khan (the grandson of Genghis Khan) lived in an ordo (a yurt/tent on wheels) that was decorated with gold and big enough to fit a thousand people inside.

I had some trouble uploading a profile picture earlier, and one guy said that the easiest way to upload one is to drag it into a post and then use the picture URL from that post to make it your profile picture. So, I'm going to put that here, if you'll pardon me.

Thanks for checking out my first post! Bye for now. :)

Here a few tips for starters snce you probably won't get any advice from those who comment under here, here's what I gathered thus far.
It's tough to make money at first so if that's your main cause to be on here grind that into your head straight away, that doesn't mean you shouldn't post content, you should, but enganging with others in the comment sections to grow your following is your best bet. Which categories?

Probably the introduce yourself one and the photography section but you can choose things that you have knowledge about too and then go from there just know that there is a lot of crap on here so plowing through that just to connect with others can be tough. Cheers.
