i'm also looking so thanks for this post.

She's a writer. Romance-based novels. And she also does photography of places she travel as well as some cooking-related posts.

https://steempeak.com/@jlsplatts

A handyman. Posting variety of DIY content from homesteading, practical household maintenance, and sometimes STEM stuff.

When @enforcer48 sets his mind to it, he can churn out some pretty cool stuff. I vote for him.

@minismallholding is everything you're looking for. Detailed, quality posts about homesteading on a small, residential block; homeschooling her two girls, and community building on the chain. 
She works tirelessly to encourage and support genuine newcomers, and has shown nothing but wisdom and kindness in the 2 years I've known her online and then in person at the Adelaide meetups. 

Great topic. I haven't been around for a while so I'm not sure who's still here but there were a lot of us grinding back around a year ago. Interested to see who makes this list.

You may want to define underappreciated. Some suggestions are featuring authors with around 100 votes and earning over $4, and that is certainly not a lot, it's much more than most undiscovered writers here.

I’ll get you a list 🙂 thanks for the tag!

@steemchiller  is the first that comes to mind.

He is very underappreciated for the enormous service he provides for the community. STEEMWORLD is the most important app of them all in my opinion.  Without it, I would power down and leave. I use it every day.

He is struggling to get paid the costs of the necessary server every month.
He can't even afford to run a witness server, because this would lose him 40 bucks every month in the beginning...

@natubat get's very little attention but I have been supporting her for the best part of a year. She's been gone for a while but has just come back.

I know for a fact she's invested when the price was higher but doesn't get the recognition she deserves for her work.

She's a crazy hiker, climbs mountains in the Scottish highlands and presents us with great detail and maps. She's also a big commenter, something which as you know, is going to recede now.

I have been following him for about a year. He helped me get into steemit and  showed me how to find my way around.
I think he hs been here almost two years.

Most interactive person on steemit.

I think @Crosheille deserve more attention. She make an incredible job for the needlework monday and her sewing work is incredible and she explain very clearly how she make this or that piece :)

@silviabeneforti is a great artist that had been here for a long time she doesn't get a huge support but her stuff is awesome.

@ginnyannette writes incredibly creatively but again struggles for support.

@wojtczak.photo

He's a Polish photographer who posts high quality landscapes and seascapes. I've been following him for a few months. He doesn't engage much but his work is worth much, much more than what he has been getting except for a few of his last posts that were discovered by @curie. I'd keep an eye on him.

@wojtczak.photo has put out a lot of posts that have earned ridiculously low rewards for their quality. He is not at least currently powering or transferring anything out.

He appears to be a professional photographer whose web page is this:

@makerhacks and @martybostick

i struggle with concept of what is undiscovered on steem. is a 1$ on steem undiscovered? or is 5$? or maybe someone that is constant but gets nothing? when curie (or 3speak now) comes i feel discovered when not well :D
a lot of people i follow are here for some time and are in that 1-5$ so not sure  

@borjan is fairly new here and posts some incredible wildlife/creepy-crawly photography around which he creates imaginative little narratives. He's always entertaining and it looks like he puts in at least 110% effort with both his posts and engagement.

I would suggest @northwestnomad. He is posting his original comics on Steem and just makes cents. I discovered him shortly after he joined late last year. I am one of his few commenters, but he nearly always responds. He is sticking with Steem despite the small rewards.

He is one of several comic artists I follow and most make very little really. This is the sort of content that keeps the average person coming back each day. Most are not interested in cryptocurrency. There are other comics I enjoy that are not on Steem and we should make it an attractive place for them to join. I'd love to see xkcd, The Oatmeal and others here. @joyoftech were here, but gave up.
