I've been on Medium a little over a year now, and have just written stories based on personal interests (about 300+ now). I've taken some down over time too because I thought they were outdated. But its time to transition to something more practical. Making $3 a month on the platform is not a viable use of my time any more... The most I ever made in a month was around $11. That's ridiculous...
I wish the platform would give more attention to the writers with just a few hundred followers. But they don't seem to care much about us, though we are probably the vast majority, and prop up the whole system through our monthly fee.
Thanks for the encouragement and advice Kristina.

Hey Ray, could you share the link to your profile? I'd like to check it and share some (unsolicited) advice 😂
P.S. In Janaury 2024 I'll open the the doors for a Medium and Substack for Beginners course. Zero to hero :D Maybe hat will be something for you.
