57 Stories and 3 Months of Consistent Writing in the Medium Partner Program
A deep dive into my Medium stats and earnings.
2017
I opened a Medium account in December 2017 with the sole purpose of writing and sharing one article. I didn’t think much else of it.
2018
The year thereafter I published an impressive total of five pieces. Yes, you heard it correctly! One in January, February and April. In October that year I really outdid myself and wrote… two pieces. Yes, I know, I can hardly believe it myself. *shocked Pikachu*
Again, very sporadically. I wrote whenever I felt “inspired”. As a result, I barely wrote at all.
2019
In 2019 my writing frequency continued to improve. I produced a total of eleven pieces. Still nothing to celebrate. My writing “streaks” came in bursts. One short streak in February, then again in April, and once more in July. One lonely post was published in October which also marks the end of my writing on Medium for that year.
What followed, was a long period of silence. At the end of last year I started a new job that demanded most of my time and energy. Writing took a backseat.
