Beloved is my latest publication on Medium. For months, I pondered my plan to introduce a more relational webzine about love and relationships on this publishing platform.

“Love one another, but make not a bond of love: Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls.” — "Love One Another," by Khalil Gibran

If you’re not a Medium member, you can read this story here. For your convenience, here you can find the official Medium guidelines on how to submit to a publication.

On May 21, I learned that one of the most relevant love-centric publications on Medium was shutting its doors in a surprising turn of events. Back then, several writers reached out with questions about what the future had in store for us after prominent publications suddenly fell under the radar.

At this point, there’s no straight answer, even if there’s reason to believe that the golden era of Medium publications seems to be behind us. However, I feel confident about building smaller indie writing communities across the platform on a wide variety of topics. Love is a rock, and by carrying its torch, we will prevail!
