![](https://steemitimages.com/DQmb2kd2939aus445eZriGLGxKQUXCP1NqKYv3JVgJj9JYE/image.png) Steemians! Tomorrow is Thanksgiving here in the states, and I just hit 250 followers. So I am doing a Thanksgiving GIVEAWAY. I know 250 followers is not much compared to others on here, but I thank you so much for following me, guys. It means a lot. https://steemitimages.com/DQmRLVWT5MdGybMgKF9Gt8tkrWa42TyFGbGfvC1joZBUT5L/image.png So, I'm obviously still quite the minnow in this space, but I try to work hard each and every day by posting daily, original content, and upvoting, commenting, resteeming, and engaging with others in this space every single day. Not once have I ever ASKED someone to follow me, nor have I done the "easy way" of following thousands of people in hopes that some of them follow me back. It's cool knowing all of my followers follow me because they generally saw something they liked and thought following me was worth their while. ![](https://steemitimages.com/DQmcMAwCGxEsX32qHkzsYE3hcgdUicgUQZJ7wkriUySZyzN/image.png) Specifically I have been posting on Steemit: - Live videos of myself playing mostly original music and some cover songs, many of which are for the weekly Steemit Open Mic competition with the openmic tag (-shout out to my open mic people!-); - My original paintings in the art tag ( LOVE seeing all your fantastic work every day guys!); - Informational blogs about medicinal mushrooms (from my website http://medicinalmushies.com) in the steemstem tag (love steemstem! one of the best groups on Steemit!); - Original fictional stories and nonfictionalal essays in the writing and story tags (much love, fellow Steemit writers. Keep writing!); And - Cryptocurrency related news posts (by the way, I am releasing a new book and website very soon called Cryptocurrency Trading 101. For now you can follow the facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/cryptocurrencytrading101/) (Keep at it guys. The crypto space gets more and more exciting each and every day and I am so happy to be a part of it!) ![](https://steemitimages.com/DQmSGScFCEuCTCxzoaUnvvX6g78SGPRby1ZuBdHXB8axo3F/image.png) Giveaway Rules As a thank you to you all I have decided to give away $10 in steemdollars AS WELL AS all the steemdollars earned on this post!
