Holy Sh*t, I just hit 1K Followers!

When I started back in September of 2022, I had no expectations nor experience with Medium. I had intentions to find something new, something different to do, something that scared me. And I found Medium.

A little about me

I am not a writer. Writing is a hobby of mine. I do not write in journals or diaries. I prefer audiobooks. How I discovered that I enjoyed writing was during my school years in English class when my mind just kept my pencil writing. Moreover, I’d like to say that I write better then I speak and I can express my feelings on paper better than I do, vocally. Same difference, I know.

I’m not a complete introvert, but I have introvert tendencies. Alone time is a reward and I can be a hermit for days. I avoid those awkward conversations at social settings or public places. I know I sound like a rude human being, but I’m not. Really! I just like my space and prefer to not engage if I don’t have to.

Ironically, my profession is to engage, connect, and create culture. And I think I’m pretty good at it. I can project myself very well as an extrovert and that part of me is real, but if I had a choice, it would be at home, alone, in my mixed matched clothes, in silence with a hot cup of coffee.

Thank you, to all those who may have read my previous and current articles. Greatly appreciate the feedback and the claps, and lack thereof.

I’ve reach a goal I set for myself on Medium, 1K followers. And I am truly happy. My intentions on Medium is probably the opposite of most. It isn’t to make income. It’s a space for my thoughts. And one advice I would give to writers on Medium (new or old) is that if you enjoy writing, do just that, write. Don’t over or under think it, just write.

Thank you for reading this far and if you enjoyed any parts of my article here, please support my writing journey by giving it a clap and follow. I’d love to connect with you.
