Funny.. I've been looking for new stories from you these past few days :-) I definitely see all of your points.

For me, writing so much works because I catch engagement from different people that way, and some of those people become loyal readers who look for my stories whenever they're on Medium. My stats ebb and flow, but there's an overall pattern of growth.

I will remain guilty of writing too much for a long time to come. But hey, I've been guilty of the same thing back in the days of Xanga, Deadjournal, and even Facebook.

Writing as much as I do hasn't just helped me out financially, but it's made me a happier, more optimistic person. It's an interesting and unexpected perk.
