What I’ve Discovered About Medium Writing
After 130 stories
After 130 stories
Use the word “MEDIUM” in your title. That's why we're all here after all.
Do not mention “HUMOR.” One man’s humor is another man's disgust.
Make your story SHORT, under the 150-word mark for quick hit and run reading.
Make your story 7 or 8 minutes long so that it might display gravitas and be curated.
Display your street creds that you may be qualified to show us the path to enlightenment.
Show us your empathy and vulnerability that we may grope out the path together, as a community.
Publish as many stories as you can.
Concentrate on the quality of each of your stories
Promote your stories.
Stay under the radar that you might not be commercial and spammy
Combine 2 or 3 sentences into paragraphs rather than look like a children's book.
Leave plenty of white space.
I hope these secrets will serve you well.
Thank you for your time.
P.S. You could read my profile, but even better, you could bust on over HERE and I’d be happy to send you a note whenever I publish one of these “stories.” Don’t miss out!
