I’ve Moving To Substack

Why I’m moving to Substack.

Dear reader,

I know. You’ve probably seen this coming, or at least seen the trend. Writers of Medium are transitioning to other platforms. I didn’t want to join them. I wanted to stay here where I’m comfortable. Here, where it’s so easy to write articles and publish to the multiple publications that I’m a writer for. Here is where I desired to grow and saw potential as an independent writer. Yet, like many others I must also expand my reach and say farewell to my time here at Medium.

I am thankful for the opportunity to join multiple publications and submit my writings to these amazing platforms. Yet, the truth is, even with a following of 100k from a publication my statistics would rarely reach over 100 views. My profits were maximized at under $2 for an article and the engagement was very little to none.

Writing is a passion of mine. It is something I do to learn, share, connect and find a minor income from. Medium has proven to be a platform that offers a seamless system for writers but not a system for financial or social media expansion. As those are my goals, I must part ways with Medium and give Substack a chance.

If you’re interested in reading about personal development, societal conditioning, and mindfulness then I’d love to connect with you here. I’m hopeful that there will be growth and change there.

Thanks again for being here!

Meet me over at Substack and lets continue the conversation.

Warmly,
