Our @BuddyUP community is growing and so is the quality content inside the POST POOL channels. Often, that content can be easily missed in the vast ocean of Steemit.

It’s our mission at BuddyUP to grow together, support each other and highlight the fantastic content that is created by our members. As part of that mission, we showcase talented content creators within the BuddyUP community, who also display a positive attitude and a community mindset, through our weekly curation post, Hook ‘Em Up!

THIS WEEK’S CATCH

@pechichemena

Music is a universal language and fortunately there are a multitude of talented musicians here on Steemit, including our member @pechichemena. Upon visiting his blog, you will be met with some great tunes to listen to and if you're interested in fine tuning your talent, or even trying to learn to play guitar, he's got some lessons there for you as well.

In his Cover A Steemian post, @pachichemena offers his entry into the #coverasteemian initiative by playing for us a cover of "Come My Way (My Great Escape)" by another musically talented Steemian, @lillywilton.

This particular song of her I really loved and I thought of making my little take on it :D . Hope I do it justice !

This is one of those songs that will get you right in the feels, @pechichemena covers it beautifully. Just close your eyes and let the melody flow through your ears and soothe your mind. The lyrics are well written, thought provoking, and deep.

and she lived for the night time
it made her sick for the day
I thought that she was my something more
But it ate her away

Dance on over to @pechichemena's entry into a great initiative, listen to an awesome song, and show our musical buddy some love!

@sultnpapper

Our member @sultnpapper is not only a '29er', he is also left-handed which makes him a very unique Steemian. He just became a Top 10 player on the Steem Poker League and honors us with multiple topics in his Daily Dose posts.

A ‘29er is a person born on Leap Year day, February 29th.

In one of @sultnpapper's Daily Dose's, he shares with us the stuggles of his lefty disease. Things such as using a pair of scissors or power tools, driving a car, and writing are seemingly difficult for our lefty friends and family. He does share with us one advantage to being left handed.

Most of us will never know the difficulties of living in a right-handed world. It's easy to take for granted some of the simple things we do everyday that aren't so easy for the left-handed population. Do you remember those right handed desks we had to sit in at school? Try to imagine being a lefty in that desk...

Did you know that a lefty on average dies three years younger than right handed folks, with all else being equal?

Swing by our buddy @sultnpapper's Daily Dose, learn a little about out left handed friend's struggle, and leave him a nice warm hello.

@swolesome

Who wants to play a game? @swolesome is fairly new to our community and he brings with him a proud, outgoing and generous spirit. If you're looking for some fun on Steemit, he has a game on the blockchain that you can play called 'Dust and Shadows'.

Dust and Shadows is a game and in which you are your own character. In @swolesome's story, he puts you in different situations where you have to pick from the choices he gives you to progress through the game.

He slides a small stool towards toward you a large engraved knife and an engraved bow lie on top of it.
"Choose one and it will never leave your side even after you die."

---

---

It's an easy and laid back game to play. All you have to do each week is make a choice. Your choice determines where the game will go, but be careful... make the wrong choice and your character could end up laying lifeless on the ground. There is a small price if you'd like to join in the fun, just a couple SBD will get you in the mix.

Get on your horse and gallop on over to check out what's going on in @swolesome's creative and interactive game, Dust and Shadows. Send a couple SBD and join in on the fun.
