Ever since you wrote your “…Jumped the Shark” article, I’ve gone back and forth with getting another website. During this time and while performing some experiments, I’ve also been better at starting more drafts within Medium. I’m glad I did.
But. The bottom line is we don’t own Medium and I have no control over who sees my stuff — although it’s still better than building your own audience from scratch. I’m looking to build a place where all of my work can live in one place.
And I need to pull the plug: build the place for my content to live and distribute it through Medium’s “import” function — and then let the chips fall where they may.
Every time I start or finish a draft since this has happened, I haven’t really hit “publish.” I’m debating on whether or not to put it on the new platform first.
(And it’s not really a debate anymore. I just need to do it before I get too many articles here I can’t change it again.) I was hoping for things to turn out better. In reality, I just need to accept — — well, reality.
