Before You Thrash Your Bookmarked Stories

For me, reading Medium stories is like the experience of a little child wandering on the seashore. Over and again, one more interesting seashell captivates him. At his last picking, the child thought he has seen the most intricately designed seashell. Just a few steps later, he finds out in ever-increasing amazement that even more, beautiful shells are yet on his way. With his pockets getting fuller with each step, the child ends up discarding most of his earlier picks.

That about sums up the experience of many Medium readers (and writers) especially new writers like me. What do you do with your personal throve of all those fantastic stories you eagerly threw into your bottomless pit of personally curated stories β€” your favorite Medium stories?

Do you discard the contents of your personal library just because you don’t have time to read all those books or recall all that you have read so far?

One of my all-time favorite Medium stories is Manage It Like That (MILT) β€” A Nigerian story. The author, a fellow Nigerian, wrote a story that accurately depicted the β€œway of things” in my country.
