Steady, thoughtful advice - thank you! I like the idea of doing your work to write 150ish articles "silently and peacefully." Medium ain't no overnight, magic money machine. The hype about quickly cashing in distracts me from taking the right amount of time I need to write meaningful articles topped by irresistible headlines. May not make me rich, but therein lies my joy of writing, connecting and succeeding as a Medium writer.
