July 2023 HivePUD - Happy Eid

Eid Mubarak to All Muslims Out there.~

---

June was an interesting month, I didn't focus on any single thing through it. So, my recap of the month will be a bit diverse.

In the first week, I took part in LeoFinance's Zealy Campaign. I drew the art for three entries in their Artist Campaign, (Links below.) I spent the last couple of days of the campaign making Threads there and placed on Top 10 in terms of activity during them. See more about it in My Zealy Campaign Experience post.

Incidentally, I also took part in LPUD for the first time in forever. It's the LeoFinance equivalent of HivePUD, and I have high expectations for $LEO because of it.

Earlier this month, someone I know took a course in Brain Training and I listened with them to lessons about Visual Reading, a method of Speed Reading in which you turn your eye into a phrase-capturing machine instead of reading it word by word. I didn't train enough this month, but I'm putting this here to remind myself to train again.

Eid Al-Adha was near the end of June, and because of preparations for it, I've met with many of my relatives that I haven't seen in a while. Sadly, one of my distant relatives died just before Eid. اللهمّ ارحمها.~

During the last week of the month, I went back to engaging with the community on DBuzz. I got the 5th place in the Hive Engagement League so I became pretty confident I can get the 3rd place if I tried harder, and that's my current goal for the next month!

I got another owner for one of my Digital Funding Tokens, if you want more info about it, check this post: "Help Funding My Works by Buying DFTs."

Finally, this June was the month I started to publish my new series "59 ÷ 31 = 0" ^{<-- yup that's the name.} It's one of my darkest stories but I planned for some wholesome chapters too. Let's see if I can finish that series this July.

What's Next?

As I said above, I'd like to get 3rd place in Hive Engagement League at some point this July.

If you're new, I recommend you check the "Where to Start?" post about my fictional works. I write in many genres so you'll find a story you like.

For now, I wish you all a blessed time, until we meet again in another article.
