Often there are more great posts than can fit in TDWS. There is simply a limit on how many can go in one issue ... both in terms of number and in how many our group account can presently support -- especially given the current price of Steem. ***The Inbox Runneth Over*** offers a place for you to find more fine reading and art -- since work of this caliber is often sadly lacking on Steemit -- and a place where your creations are surrounded by fine company. I know how demoralizing it is to consider just plunging into the general stream and trying to find something worth your time. As with *TDWS*, the mission of *The Inbox* is to provide an oasis of goodness you can always count on. With your help, I have managed to give *The Inbox* a solid 52+ rep and its own legs to stand on -- enough SP to minimize the dreaded "bandwidth problem." With further support, it can become not just another place to showcase our members' work, but another source of decent rewards for them, too. Right now I can't manage that nearly to the extent I would like -- or they deserve. So please consider visiting and supporting *The Inbox* for the quality work it features. Your follow and upvote would certainly be welcome, but for sure give meaningful engagement and rewards to any posts you find that interest you. There will be plenty! To those who have already stood with me in building *The Inbox* to its present level, you have my profound, continuing gratitude ... and you guys are on my Christmas list for sure! Here is the latest issue of *The Inbox* -- so ... get yourself something good to drink and maybe a snack, too. I can pretty much guarantee, you're going to love what you find. Our members -- you and all the others -- are the greatest! ![DQmXqw84F3KCSJEJ5D6pWQzEB8s41KGWZjzo3sKx4aNmNhm.png](https://steemitimages.com/DQmXqw84F3KCSJEJ5D6pWQzEB8s41KGWZjzo3sKx4aNmNhm/DQmXqw84F3KCSJEJ5D6pWQzEB8s41KGWZjzo3sKx4aNmNhm.png) [The Inbox Runneth Over -- Issue #18 Where hidden treasures come to light](https://steemit.com/curation/@theinbox/the-inbox-runneth-over-issue-h6-h67-where-hidden-treasures-come-to-light) @theinbox ![cws.gif](https://steemit-production-imageproxy-upload.s3.amazonaws.com/DQmTAsshkx1rQWeA1tXd9X7eYwZcQBRPNzCNJjEuamii7fR) **Would you like to join The Steem Engine's Voting and Curation Trail?** This link allows you to auto-vote on all our group members' posts, the ones The Steem Engine votes on. Set your vote to a very small percentage ... like 1% so as to not drain your voting power. (The group account usually votes on between 35 and 50 accounts a day. 50 votes at 1% would be half a full upvote from your account daily.) This, of course, will help our group members grow and you will gain curation rewards. (Do be sure you know what you're doing before you activate this request. You will be auto-voting from your account on all the posts from members of The Steem Engine at whatever percentage you choose.)
