In this acronym story, let’s dig deep and consider 7 reasons why it makes sense for authors to take advantage of this platform.
AUTHORS: an acronym story
ACCUMULATIVE EFFECT
One of the benefits of writing on Medium is that you can actually build your book on this platform. There is an accumulative effect as you drip out content. It adds up. And before you know it, you’ve written a chapter or more.
UNDERSTAND YOUR AUDIENCE
Writing this way allows you to understand your audience. You understand what kind of stories they want to hear. And your audience will give you instant feedback via claps, highlights, shares, and comments.
T EST AND TRY NEW THINGS
I like to call Medium my personal laboratory. Writing on Medium allows you to test and try new things. How did one story perform over another? If you’re developing characters for a book, pay attention to your readers’ reactions.
HONE YOUR CRAFT
Consistent, content creation on Medium allows you to write your stories and test what is resonating with your audience. But it also allows you to hone your craft and find your voice. You become better by doing.
OPPORTUNITIES
The are many opportunities available on Medium. One is sharing in publications. Publications are groups sometimes centered around a specific topic. Others, like ILLUMINATION, are made up of a wide range of topics.
REVENUE
Writing on Medium is really a no-brainer. With all of the benefits I’ve listed so far, why wouldn’t you? But if you’re still not convinced, this one should seal the deal. Medium pays you for something you are going to do anyway?
S ALES
As you have been creating content, testing what your readers like, and getting paid to do it, the icing on the cake is you can prepare your readers to purchase your finished book. Sales are waiting for you.
