White woman with brown eyes and hair standing in the shade. Her face is half covered by leaves hanging from a tree. Only one of her eyes is shown. Through the blurry leaves you can see she’s holding up her hand and pushing leaves out of her face. It seems as though the photo was made on a sunny day.

When I started writing on Medium, I wasn’t concerned about growth. I decided it would be fun to publish a post. My main goal was to avoid the hassle of setting up a blog. My name was put there because I couldn’t be bothered to come up with something catchier.
