The comeback is, well, about me re-entering the Hive universe after a couple of years break.
The challenge is a 30 days writing streak like the ones you've been seeing from me here (if you're in Hive at least for 7-8 years).
And there's no bar, it just felt like a catchy title.
Now, let's take it slowly.
The Comeback
A few years ago I decided to sunset my witness node and take a step back. It was time to let other people enter the game and try to push things further.
What changed?
Nothing, related to the witness node. I still don't want to run one.
But I am back writing. You see, when I left, my social media exposure was at a top high level. I was a little bit oversubscribed, so to speak. Too much information, too little time.
Slowly, I started a detox. I traveled around and moved to Asia (first, South Korea, and latest, Vietnam). I had tons of real life interactions. I studied and launched a couple of small projects. Some of them in real life, some of them on-chain.
And now I'm at a balance point. And I miss writing.
The Challenge
If you're here for at least 7-8 years, then you might remember my 30 days writing challenges. Some of them were about onboarding new people to Hive, while others were just about anything - as long as you wrote consistently, every day, for 30 days.
Many writers on Hive have been part of those challenges. There is something about committing to something for 30 days straight. It helps in other areas of your life too, not only in the area covered by the challenge.
So, starting tomorrow I will write for 30 days on a variety of topics. What you can expect to see here? Well, pretty much everything, from politics to tech, and from fun to just life observations.
If you want to join, all you have to do is to post a link to your post in the comments. I will try to highlight some of the most interesting posts during the challenge (although I cannot guarantee that).
That's it.
Man, it feels good to be back.
30 day writing challenge!
I remember your challenges. In fact I think I met @melinda010100 one of my dearest Hive friends during a 30 day writing challenge from you 🙂
You may be right! I went for several years publishing daily! ❤️
Welcome back! I can't dedicate myself to daily writing at the moment, but I have earned a few monthly author awards from HiveBuzz.
Welcome back @dragosroua
Wow! Long time no see. Welcome back! I'm glad that everything is OK.
I want to read about your off-chain experiences in this last year(s) of discovering. That's for sure !pimp
It's good to see you back and glad that the break did you good.
Now down to business....
Please start your Dapp again, it was the most used Dapp on the chain and will be again!
First post back and someone wants something from you lol
Best wishes with the writing challenge. It's just what the chain needs right now so your timing is perfect!
Have a great weekend :-)
Thanks, it feels good to be back!
By my "Dapp" I think you mean hive.supply. I might have the codebase somewhere in some repo, I'll have a look and see if it can be revived.
Glad to see back again!
Glad to see you back dear friend. You have been away for a while
Glad to see you back after this hiatus! A detox is good from time to time. Interesting travels... Looking forward to your 30-day daily posting streak.
Hey! Great to see you again. You may see a few changes and some new faces. Hive is still fun for me. I actually have your running book on my pile to read and I will get to it eventually.
!BEER
Welcome back! I have heard Vietnam is a pretty cool place. There are a couple other people I follow from here who live there. Good luck to people with the 30 day challenge. I know for sure I can't do it. I had to cut my writing back to five days a week after about my second year on HIVE. I realized I was going to burn out otherwise. I still make the occasional comment on the weekends (like this), but I try to reserve those for gathering content to write about during the week.
It is great to see you back! I've taken on far to many tasks to have time to publish every day, but if I can support your initiative in some other way let me know!
And what for those who have been here for nine years?
And yeah, I agree with @nathen007. Resurrect hive.supply it was indeed the most used Dapp on the chain and will be again!
What can I expect to see? Uhm, well, I dunno. I'll have to keep an eye out and see with what kind of twisted sense of humor you're coming up after being missing for two years.
