Looking back, Dreemport is where everything started for me. It was still not yet public then as I remember. Fate has it that I was looking for a place where I can have people to engage with my writing.
Dreem instilled an idea in me, "Leave memorable comments and you will get one in return."
It was perfect for me!
Writing for me is a passion, getting engaged with my readers, and having genuine comments is a must if I was to improve myself. Dreemport gave me the chance to find people I can engage with randomly.
At the start, I used the excuse, "Hi! This is Khoola from @dreemport..." Just so I have an excuse to drop by and say something honestly. Now, it is more of a habit for me and I come and comment like it's perfectly natural for me.
From this point on I started to find people to support, familias, friends, and communities that I belong to.
Having friends means getting tagged here and there to join something... Truth be told I feel really bad if I can't finish writing or drawing in time, or it gets pushed back because another project's deadline is fast approaching, or I am just plain burned out. ๐ซ
But I write everything in the wall to remind myself of the things I need to finish and I will finish them. ๐ค
Another great memory from Dreemport is the challenges. I am focusing on my fiction writing but here I found myself blogging. The first challenge I remember was the Dreemport staff shoutout where I started cultivating my talent in making "banners" ๐คฃ. The second was the dreaded "Freewrite" ๐ where I first felt that I am not just a fiction writer but also a blogger. The third was fiction writing... got to polish my skills there!
And now gardening!? I never thought I would be showing my garden skills! ๐ณ
People who know me personally say it is out of character for me to be raising roses and sunflowers, I am too manly they tell me! ๐ช LOL! (that reminds me that I need to find time to go to the gym... my abs have turned to flabs from writing too much. decided to slow down on writing.)
Anyway, here is a link for week three of the Hive Garden challenge GroVid22 Challenge 3 for HiveGarden with DreemPort: Why We Love Gardens!
Else,
Pimp Your Post Thursday by Shadowspub every Thursday on Dreemport Discord (Yep. it's on Thursday don't ya forget it).
Why it is special to me?
Simple it is the first time I joined a group voice chat, on my own accord... I am not the social type (I am not so fond of social media platforms) but because I can keep my identity to myself gives me a bit of courage to speak up ๐.
Now, I can join the riot and promote post I come across that I think is interesting enough to share, without worry.
You guys can come in too... there are prizes now! LOL!
Here is a link to last weeks PYPT check it out!
From here on out I see more great things from Dreemport.
The pictures and the banner in this post is of @dreemport and is used for this community celebration contest only. In the cases when they were taken from other sources I stated the source in the sub-caption of the pictures.
I really enjoyed reading your post and the sincerity of your words. I like to know the stories of those who have more time in Hive and the support they have gotten by finding the communities where they feel comfortable. Even how you are encouraged to do things out of your comfort zone, many times the good company makes us brave. Nice to read you.
Thank you very much I really appreciate you dropping by!
Agree, it is my friend's support that made me take that extra step and do things that is out of my comfort zone. ๐
Anyway, I am a curator of the tribe proofofbrain (last four days for this months curating block for me). I always see your post in the terminal. if you have a spare in your tags would you mind to put #proofofbrain so I can upvote it? Will be upvoted by POB and VYB tokens tho and some Hive.
If you want...
Thank you for replying to my comment @khoola. The truth is that despite the time in Hive I think I have not yet mastered the correct way to place the tags. Is proofofbrian the same as pob? Thanks for your help. I hope you have a nice day!

Fantastic write up!
Thanks to @samsmith1971 who introduced me to DP, i've found this wonderful community. Can't thank her enough she's badass.
Btw one question, how did you put that line seperater in your posts to make sections in a post?
Thanks!
haha thanks Jin! You're pretty badass too my friend! Not sure what Mat uses but looks like what I do and I just use a single or double dash line, the symbol that appears alongside the underscore symbol on the same key.. Hope that helps...
okay testing
did it work?

If anything, hive in general got me out of my comfort zone. I'd say keep exploring, yesterday banners and freewriting, today a gardner, tomorrow a strip dancer maybe after getting the abs back? ๐
