February Updates at The Memoirist

A few words from Mama Ki

Dear Friends of The Memoirist,

I hope this post finds you well! It’s been a while since I published a Memoirist “newsletter,” so I thought I’d reach out and say hi.

I know things have been rough for many on the Medium platform these days — even as a boost nominator, I don’t really have any answers for you other than I’m trying to keep the faith that algorithm weirdness will be fixed and writers will start seeing an increase in their pay again.

There’s been an influx of writers swarming over to Substack — heck, I’m there too — if you are a writer dipping your toes in the water over there, let me know…I’d love to give you a follow.

All that being said, please know that The Memoirist is standing strong here at Medium and we are continuing to publish and boost stories.

We’re looking for compelling memoirs — a true deep dive into the corners of your life. If you have pictures to share, even better. If you give us the raw and the vulnerable, we love it. If you make us laugh — that’s great too.

What are curators looking for when they boost a nomination? Well, that’s the magic question, isn’t it? Honestly, it’s as subjective as anything else. But your chances…
