No time for negativity

I log on to Medium to check my stats and read articles. I grin and shake my head, do people read this stuff? “ How to hack Medium to get more followers. Do this to get higher earnings, Do what I do, and you too can make thousands of dollars a month.”

I don’t know about anyone else, but if I was making thousands of dollars on Medium, I would keep my mouth shut. Why would I take money out of my wallet to put it in yours?

Focus on your writing, you’ll be happier

Another thing that annoys me, folks write articles bitching about Medium. They then post the articles on Medium. What the Hell? The problem is folks are looking at this the wrong way.

I have struggled writing for years. My first attempt at writing a novel will never see the light of day. I took an online Creative Writing course when I moved to South Carolina. I learned a lot, but I have learned more since I became a writer for Illumination on Medium.

I will get there, it just takes time

My writing and my stats have improved since Illumination added me as a writer. I’m not making hundreds or thousands of dollars.

Making money on Medium isn’t the point. Learning the craft of writing and writing something that people want to read is my focus. I quit worrying about making money and my writing improved and my earnings increased.

Focus on learning and being the best writer you can be

My advice? Don’t worry about algorithms and claps. You need to concentrate on producing the best content you can. That includes using the Grammarly APP and a Dictionary. Your article will be published faster if it had fewer errors.

Take writing seriously. Listen to the editors when they want you to make changes. Use Medium as a learning and growth experience and good things will happen.

Final thought:

You get out of it what you put into it. If Medium isn’t working for you, you should examine yourself and decide what you want from the platform.

I want to be the best writer I can be. I’m not there yet, but with the help of the editors for Illumination and Medium, I will achieve my goal.
