<h1>OCD DAILY - Issue #40</h1></center>
<br>
<center>Welcome to the 40th issue of  **@OCD Daily!**</center>

Issue #40 highlights content from eight (8) marvellous yet underrated Steemit Content Creators! The OCD team on its journey continues to search tirelessly throughout Steemit for undervalued gems as provided by relatively new users.

Today our (20) curators, under our steadfast leader, @acidyo, have delivered nine wonderful pieces of original content to share with you! These works as provided by newer steemit users don’t have the audience in which their content deserves. @OCD strives to provide that audience and to showcase Steemit users that put in the effort to create quality content.

<center>***The nomination process**</center>
*A curator will **FIND** a piece of work (typically from newer users), within 24 hours that piece has been submitted from the curator to the @ocd team, votes tallied and the pieces with the most votes are placed into the compilation.**
<br>

We encourage you to visit these blogs and to show these great Steemians your support and encouragement.

<center>*If you enjoyed their work give them a **Follow** or maybe even say hello*</center>

All of the content as chosen by our curators is undervalued, but there is always one piece that rises to the top. That piece is seen as universally appreciated and valued making it OCD’s Top Nomination of the Day.

For the second day in a row we have an art post getting the first place of our comp! This time it was @ma1neevent who found the post made by @web-gnar.

Well, why imagining if you can see the whole process by clicking [HERE](https://steemit.com/painting/@web-gnar/studio-update-7-gnar-gallery-show-at-conscious-cup "HERE")

Fantasy and science fiction are genres that are underrated here on steemit and @gmuxx is here to stop that. Among all the poetry, historic stories and personal writings, @geke stands out with a fairytale that transported me to middle earth while reading it. Click [HERE](https://steemit.com/marveloustales/@geke/marvelous-tales-9-the-bane-of-abeyance "HERE") to read a superb piece which happends to be the first part of a larger project, but be careful, you can get hooked up and the author is still working on the sequels, so you´ll have to wait! Better follow her huh?

@suesa always surprises us with a lot of surprising topics where we end up learning something new and this time is @dber´s turn! Even though he states he is not an expert and this post shouldn´t be followed as a guide, I might as well take his word for everything he writes because he does it perfectly.

On the last weeks we have seen a lot of users from Venezuela join steemit and this pleases us as it expands the variety of the content we read. @anomadsoul stumbled upon @laflacasings´s introduction where she tells us all about her intentions on steemit. Very well written and refreshingly pictured, click [HERE](https://steemit.com/introduceyourself/@laflacasings/a-a-slightly-loooooong-introduction "HERE") to get to know Oriana.
