My One Year Medium Anniversary Is Today
Why I Enjoy My Medium Community

Medium Anniversary
I started writing on Medium a year ago today. It has been an interesting year as I have met so many wonderful people, and I have learned so much. Of course, I do not understand the Medium algorithm.
I had 100 followers by my eleventh day, and I have written almost every day. Since I had been writing on other websites for several years, reading and commenting was natural. I quickly learned to clap and highlight articles too.
I have received 5 top writer awards, but I don’t think I’ve ever had an article boosted. I have had articles curated, so I wonder what the difference is. I had an article go viral, but it primarily had views that were not from Medium writers.
Organizing My Days
I try to write evergreen articles, and I wrote an article about what that means. I also write challenge articles based on Keeley Schroder’s and prompts. Sometimes I write on challenges from other people.
I recently wrote about how I organize my writing. I have two documents set up, and the first is called Plan Moving Forward, where I write all my ideas for new articles. I have a second document called New Challenges, and it is where I write all the new challenges I find, which have been plentiful lately. I start writing at 4 or 5 AM.
I currently have 507 articles. I have deleted a few articles and rewritten them with new information added, plus I am now using Grammarly to improve the quality of my writing. I have revealed more about my life on Medium than I ever thought I would do. I write from my heart.
I’ve found nothing is more important than connecting with other writers for success, and it has been so rewarding. I feel like I have some wonderful friends here. I have received so many thoughtful and sweet comments
These three articles won top writer awards using the tag “This happened to me”. I wrote them several months ago.
