Come back the next day with fresh eyes, read what you wrote the previous day, and I m sure you ll find ways to make things better. Yes, the quantity still matters. So, don t get hung up on perfection. You don t need to publish Pulitzer level stories on Medium every single time. But learn to identify when something is mediocre and when it s much better. Good, even Good… is good enough to publish . Try to strike a balance between quantity and quality, and be intentional about trying to polish your pieces before publishing. Also, when you take the time to write good things, other opportunities may present themselves.

I ve talked about how some writers find freelance clients on Medium. That happens when photo editing servies you write good stories. I know writers who ve gained tens of thousands of email list subscribers by writing really good and useful content, which led them to start their own businesses outside of Medium.

Here s a short and sweet pre conclusion conclusion to this rather lengthy guide to Medium. As I ve said before, I didn t take Medium seriously until a few months ago, as of writing this. In fact, I am now writing on two separate Medium accounts The reason is simple I believe that the folks who run Medium, seriously try their best to help the writers on this platform. And also, because the platform is pretty fun.
