cont'd from above: 'The Farcaster Settlement'

The village needs all kinds of people. It needs poets & writers like @arjantupan @danicaswanson & @pichi . It needs peacekeepers & social facilitators like @ted . It needs town criers like @nounishprof & @adrienne . And it needs lots of support from 'regular people.'

The point of my illustration to this person was to help them feel that the way to find your place on FC is to serve the village--to do something that helps the good of what's happening here. 

That's how I found my place & call this settlement home. I dabbled, but eventually took something I like & am good at & filled a need (in a small way) to serve the village. 

I don't know if the illustration helped the person who was struggling & wanting to give up on FC. I don't know if it's even the right illustration for FC, but it made me 'feel' what it looks like to find your place on FC. And working out ideas is what /firstdraft is for. 

If you got this far, I'd welcome other illustrations or ideas.

Great analogy, and I appreciate the emphasis on service for the greater good. Fill a need in the village by doing something you like and are good at.

Thanks for the shout-out, too! I've got something in the works behind the scenes, taking shape slowly but surely... :)

ah, glad to hear you are cookin' something....didn't think we'd hear that with grant writing.... glad you found this helpful.

That's why I made sure to add the "slowly but surely" caveat. It's anyone's guess when it'll actually come together, because the grant writing class will have to take priority until June.

But I'll work on it whenever I'm able!
