The Up Rising Trend of Writers on Medium. You Can’t Afford to Miss.

A Trend can start in a matter of days, but the one that can last weeks or months is setting the trend. For me, I tend to catch trends early for the things that I’m aware of.

In life, we have to constantly choose and make decisions on the bits of things happening in or around our daily routine of motions. (as many of them are pre-assign to us based on the identity we choose to be or the responsibility that is attached to each role we play in)

I ask myself to read, write stories, and to read and write more stories.

It’s a cycle and the trends behind it will be visible to those who are looking.

The pace you learn is the pace you progress. In this post, I’ll share 5 writers that would help you increase that pace at a faster rate.

One Writer

As life it about making progress in the moment. Give yourself 2 minutes of breathing room as Sohaib Mustafa mention in one of their latest post say a lot about how 2 minutes of your time can mean a lot more than you think. But I would like to highlight another post of his instead, which I see as a turning point in interacting with the reader and a concern that most reader has with not getting the encouraging claps that they are hoping to see.

Btw he just turned 14.

Two Writer

I would say if you get to talk to your most inspirational creator. You save yourself a dozen of books to read.

The same goes for if you get to know and understand the workflow of the Medium writer that you deem impactful to you. You have just also saved yourself a dozen steps towards the development of a wanted framework.

I have noticed a writer in the background but have not gotten to dive deeper into their work. Who I am referring to is Boysie Gordon, who I still haven’t read enough but from a metric standpoint, I would consider readers to check out his work.

If I had to choose a post, I would choose this one as not many people will look into your past post as we are all trying to keep up with the now in life.

Three Writer

There isn’t a qualification to the list but I see a few common things that they do to get to where they are.

• Consistency in writing.
• Engaging with help or reminder to others.
• Thinking outside the box but within the context of relevance.
• Build authority by showing you can help yourself first to receive the benefits of others willing to listen or read what you have to say.

Jijo George has been on Medium since mid-October. What I realize is that he has been consistent besides the few gaps in November. I think his work is worth relooking at or visiting if you haven’t and is surely underrated.

This is the very first post I can find on Medium. Just read it and read any of his latest post and you’ll see how progress is made.

Four Writer

I first saw Sílvia PM, PhD 🍂’s work under a post on how “Engagement, Done Wrong, Will Hurt Your Medium Account”, while I was trying to rephrase the title but found that it was already optimized to its best I could.

I suggest learning from her title formatting as the Title is the main driver of a post if the post is going to be viewed or not.

It has sparked me to write a post about the same subject to alert my followers since I have been encouraging writers to engage more often with other writers to get more visibility and build connections.

She has been on Medium since June 2023 but is a member as of October 2023. A strong reflection point I see is with this post.

Five Writer

For Ryan Canady, he has been on Medium since 2021, and a member since December 2023.

Which I like his end-of-year post, where he describes and sets a 2024 goal of reaching 5,000 followers. While starting a full-time job as well. I would say there is never too much to do, just that we need to know our captivity and limits so that we can push it and break through.

I realize in that post he mentions Boysie Gordon as well. Which I say (“not great minds think alike” but rather “great stuff everybody likes”.)

Real and Raw is the current trend. And thanks for writing a post to mention me more than 5 times.

The list goes from lowest following to highest to represent Growth, Progress, and what you can become and greater.

If you think that you are alone, then think again.

Every tide has a wave of people who are on a similar path that is unconnected, your other job is to connect them as you go.

A Flat way I measure or pick out the rising trend of writers is by comparing their past 2–3 weeks’ posts with their last 5 posts to see if they are performing above their average. (based on # of people who clap, overall clap count, and # of comments per post, which is the only data I have)

There are many more that I want to look into but the time is just not in my favor. So I would tag the one that comes to mind as the next wave of writers that is just as good of a read.

The Wave of Writers you should check out before you get left out.

Mike Sansone | Ethan Ginsberg | Ayesha Amjad | Nia Nour | Brandon | Martynas Ki. (@strangecash) | Daniel T. | Seongwon | Sam Krämer | Aidan McCarthy | Yohan J. | Alina Pitt | Edward Swafford | Mike Lewis | Pablo (Ascendance.dev) | Serhii Kucherenko | Emy Knazovic | Martin Kessler | Scott Wood | David J.H. | Harsha Gurnani | Josh Hinton | DannyOnDemand | Cyn BehindMind | John Pearce | Lucian Ioan Chirilă | Eduard Nicoara | Arpan Kaur | Ripton Green | Tina Here | Nanette Lai | Alessio Michesi | Ashley | DeryaSefer

If you are not on the list, it doesn’t mean you’re not great, just that I can only see what I see, and my knowledge is limited to my lens.

So reach out so I can see you.

P.S. I didn’t mention Carl Jeffers because he’s already a legend in my view.

Thank you for reading. (and I haven’t got the chance to reply to many comments, will be doing that later tonight)
