Thanks for the mention in your steem news pennsif. And noticing our new staff member @carolkean. I'm excited to have her on-board as she's a long term active steemian, prolific with comment engagement, and a former editor at a sci-fi magazine. She's perfect for what is developing into one of the best steem creative Writing hive communities 🙂

Hi @stellabelle, I heard there was a problem. But I believe it has been rectified now - but not 100% certain on that.
