My First 4 Days on Medium

I am pretty happy with my progress so far.

If you couldn't tell I am new to Medium, I wanted to talk about my progress on this platform so far. I joined Medium because I got COVID (you can read about my experience here), and I wanted to do something productive from my bedroom. Honestly, I watched Encanto one too many times.

Full transparency, I currently have…

  • 29 Followers (nowhere near the holy 100)
  • 1 Email Subscriber (the stat I am most shocked by)
  • I am a writer for six publications (pretty proud of this one)
  • 148 Views
  • 81 Reads
  • 38 Fans (not sure what that means, please feel free to leave a comment)

I am beyond happy with these stats; I have put out two articles every day so far, I am not sure if that has anything to do with it.

Most importantly, I am taken aback by how welcoming and connected the community on Medium is. By far the best social media platform I have used in a long time.

The creative freedom and connecting with like-minded people is why I am enjoying it so much.

If you're new to Medium and like nature, hiking, photography, YA novels, gin, and analyzing social media stats, then let's be friends.
