Got your posts ready to share?
Ready to network, meet some new friends and have a few laughs?
Then you’ll be happy know — today is THURSDAY! And time for Pimp Your Post Thursday.
Over on The Writers' Block a Poetry Academy has been introduced for those who want to work on poetry. The first workout is writing limericks. Seems there is a limerick crazy happening so here's a couple to give you a chuckle:
from @damianjayclay:
On Thursday there's always a scramble
when promoting our posts in the Ramble.
The speech is quite free
on PYPT.
Just don't give a lengthy preamble.
and from @tinypaleokitchen:
Miss Shadows is a cat-loving lady,
a writer, not at all shady.
She spends lots of time on curation,
supporting us minnows, her passion.
And Fawnya and Dawn are her babies.
Okay get those posts ready.
If you haven’t done so already, mark 11am EDT on Saturday so you can attend the witness chat in the Ramble discord. More information here
Have you visited the ports of call for the Treasure Hunt this evening (see below)?
Today is the day for the very popular Pimp Your Post Thursday. Dust off your favourite blog post and bring it along to show off to those in attendance.
Treasure Hunt This Evening
At the Evening PYPT our lovable pirate Cap’n @Dreemsteem will be selecting the winner of this week’s Treasure Hunt. If you haven’t visited the ports of call she has been publishing all week to find the words needed to create the winning phrase, you better get busy:
If you haven’t visited the ports of call, read the posts, found the needed words and left a meaningful comment — you wont be eligible for the 10SBD prize pool up for grabs. GET READING.
Tonight is the finale of this series of hunts. They will return. Cap’n Dreemsteem is taking a break and planning the next round.
It’s great fun to watch and people enjoy taking part. So get over to those posts and read them carefully :) You also may meet some new Steemians
What have you been working on this week? Do you have a great post you want to share?
Bring it along to Pimp Your Post Thursday today at 11am and 7pm.
Come on out and share those great posts at Pimp Your Post Thursday.
Promotion Channel for PYPT Attendees Only
Don’t forget. When you attain the role of PYPT Attendee for attending a session then you can post any of your posts to the #pypt-attendees-post-only channel on the Ramble.
I encourage you to regularly check out fellow attendees posts to upvote and/or comment on. Don’t forget to introduce your post as you post it.
Broadcast on the SteemStar Network
PYPT is also being broadcast on the @SteemStarNetwork thus expanding the audience you will be presenting your post to. Visit Steem Star Network for viewing options.
As always you come to the Steemit Ramble Discord to participate and present your post.
PYPT is About Networking and Sharing
Growing your audience on Steemit is partly creating great content and the other part is networking to get to know others and they to know you.
PYPT is an opportunity to network. We’ve had some great sessions so far, come join in.
Get your post ready to go and bring it along to either session. You’ll get a turn to present your post and let others get to know you and the content you create.
Come on over and join in at 11am EDT and/or 7pm EDT
Feel free to hop into the server and the voice chat at anytime to test out your connection or just say hello.
I Can’t Do Voice
Some people are not real comfortable on voice, you can use text if you wish. Some like to just listen in, that is okay too.
If you are going to present your post in text, prepare your comments in advance and be ready to copy/paste them into the text channel when called on.
The Pimp Your Post Thursday FAQ
What is Pimp Your Post Thursday?
It is an opportunity to share your post on a voice chat with other attendees. You’ll get to present your post, talk about it and let others have a look at it. Your post does need to be in English
Where Will This Chat Take Place?
It will take place on the Steemit Ramble Discord Server in the voice chat channel Pimp Your Post Thursday. Join the voice-chat-text channel for the text to accompany the voice chat.
When Will This Chat Take Place?
Thursdays at 11am EDT & 7:00pm EDT. To convert to your local time. (Right click on the link and open in a separate window to stay in this post).
What Should I Bring?
— Have a link to your favourite post ready for when you’re called on.
— Know what you want to say about the link.
This will let other people know more about you and your blog. Listen carefully to others when they are talking. You want to be heard when you’re talking as well.
If you’ve not used Discord, you can use it in your web browser, on mobile or through the desktop app. Most people seem to find the desktop app works best for them on their computers. You can find it here.
So, come on over, invite your friends and let’s see if we can get to know each other and the content we create.

Yeeey, I can not wait. I will probably be late today because I am going to visit my father in the hospital but will definitely come. Better late than never, right? ;)
Ha, the limericks are flowing like cheap wine through the halls of The Writers Block. Looks like it's already spilling out onto Steemit as well.
Haha, love it! Thanks for including the limerick in the post.
but, but, I never know what I want to say......well I do but it never comes out the way I want it to :D LOLL
Good stuff.
I know, I know I must attend . As it sounds like a real blast. I need to put this on my priority List. Thanks for doing this great event @shadowspub.
It means a whole lot to a whole lot of Steemians :)
Great rundown, @shadowspub. I'll be attending both PYPT and the Treasure Hunt for first time today.
Cap'n and @andysantics48 may force me to walk the plank if I miss again... and this last one for awhile. Pressure is ON! ;)
I love what you're doing on Steemit!
You guys really seem to mean it.
Sincerity is rare,
So I'll get outta your hair.
Oh! And it's great that you also knit. : )
