Medium Writer Introspection Time

Question time for myself at my 200th story.

“Because it feels so good when I stop,” is definitely NOT the answer to Why do I write for Medium?”

There are a couple of answers that are the real reasons, I find as I look inwards for the reasons.

  1. It’s fun.
  2. I will benefit from having this portfolio in one accessible spot.
  3. I will benefit in ways possibly unknown by exposure to new readers.
  4. I am not very good at writing, so I hope all this practice will help me.
  5. I might build my mailing list.
  6. I might be able to sell a book if I ever write one.
  7. I hope to increase traffic to my other sites.
  8. I am making a couple of bucks.
  9. Well, OK… it really does feel good when I stop.
  10. I hope I eventually make a few buds who will actually talk to me.
