You sound just like me when I got here, @kharma.scribbles. I am really a weight loss coach and tried to post my message in big posts when I got here. This went nowhere.
I'm writing 35 a week, not each day. I try for 2-3 on each of my 3 three blogs daily. I use steempeak for admin, but never post with it. I use dApps that pay with upvotes if you post with them.

There are many more high-paying dApps here. I just do not use them. I do not do video for example, and some people do really well with it.
I almost never post my own stuff to a regular post. I fit what I do into contests and challenges other people run. This way I support them and have a chance to be seen. So, I post to things like Wednesday Walk, freewrite, and food photo challenges etc etc etc so I can get the posts out.
Sometimes my message is there and sometimes not. My message has evolved by this process anyway.
I have a lot of contests listed on a recent "whale tips" post on my fitinfun blog now if you care to take a look and try any of them.
How I got to this is that in Nov 2017, a big guy who is not here now made an offer. He would vote up to 5 posts a day if you got on his list and posted them. He was trying to help little blogs learn to post here.
The votes were about 60 cents, I think. This offer was open about 8 weeks and made a huge difference for me. I was able to do 2-4 most days and that really changed everything on my blog. I only had one at the time. And I was only posting a few times a week before this. His offer kicked my butt in gear.
I have been writing like a fool since the age of 5 and I am 60 now. That is millions upon million of words with only 4 books on Amazon to show for it. I am just happy to have a place to post, be seen, and earn now :)
