Can I buy a yacht now?

I’ve been working on it for a few weeks now. I have to confess that I have frequently checked my profile in recent days to see if I had magically crossed the threshold.

Then, a couple days ago, it happened. I checked my followers, and the magical little number had converted to triple digits.

My Plan to Get Here

I didn’t do follow for follow, but I did follow back all who followed me.

I leveraged the power of this amazing community, commenting on other writers’ works, attempting to add value to the conversation while forging relationships.

And now, I’ve made it. Milestone achieved. But, let’s hold off on that yacht for a bit longer.

100 is Just a Number

I am now enrolled in the Partner Program and have the ability to meter my stories. That sounds great, except for one problem.

My stories aren’t being read.

Those 100 followers won’t be bringing me the Benjamins if no one is reading my work. So, while I am celebrating my accomplishment, I know it’s just the first step on the road.

I’m just beginning this journey.

My Plan Now

It’s really the same plan that got me here. Engage with others. Forge relationships. Add value where I can. Be a consistent creator. Allow things to build, little by little.

To those of you on the path to 100, know that it really is just a number. Celebrate when you get there. Then get back to work. That’s my plan.

Best of luck to you with your writing!
