Wow. Just wow. I was on Medium for WEEKS doing nothing but reading and learning, so when I wrote my first piece, I had a clue as to what I was doing.
And no, I didn't write about Medium. In your nearsightedness, you have incorrectly assumed that Medium is nothing but writers writing for other writers. Do you think writers are Obama's target audience when he writes here? How about Biden? Katie Couric?
No. A thousand times no. There are actual readers out there, not the hybrid you pander to, who couldn't care less about Medium and all of its how-tos and glitches. They pay $5 a month to actually have something to READ.
