If you’re reading this, it means you identify as a Medium writer, and that’s terrific! We welcome skilled writers and new writers aiming to perfect their craft. Here’s our vision:

Every story must have a clear, visible, value-added takeaway for the reader. Write funny, write seriously, write good-quality essays. Do it your way, but at the end, the reader has to have found something that made the story worth reading. We’ll help you with this if we think you didn’t quite get it.

Our focus is outstanding lessons for people who want to live a balanced, fulfilling life. We aim for proven ways to maintain your human resilience.

We like stories built around this happened to me, living a better life, creativity, our natural world, relationships, and food/healthy living, and writing and reading tips and inspiration.

Got something else you like to write about? Try us — we’re open-minded.

We ask our writers and readers to subscribe to Real Insight! and to read the publication regularly so as to support our writers’ efforts.
