Hi @wakeupkitty, it is an interesting article and my feeling is it is address to someone particular. It is difficult to guess to whom you are addressing it. I do not know what was the aim of this post, is it something that you want "the person" to read then it is better to name the name of a person, otherwise there is no sense.
I agree with you that creative people and artists they deserved to be promoted but on other hand those people should do their best to promote themselves too. Why how others should know about "the artist" and his existence if the person is not being around and not communicating with others.
The place here on blogging platform is no the right place if a person decided simple post and sit and wait that someone will visit him/her. This is a platform that needs engagement and communication with others. Taking active part in other activities and showing themselves.
Everyone here can build up his blog and his reputation with his own wiliness, working hard, investing time and their creative ideas.
Hmmmm.... I kinda understand your stand here. Though, I've been within the steem community for a while now and what I've seen within the community overtime has really made it difficult for me to be so expressing and engaging. I could remember the days of getting flagged just because you made a harmful comment underneath a post. Trust me, it's been crazy!
