Insane! This Writer Wrote 500 Stories — 87 of Them Got Boosted
That’s 17%
People often only share their successes, their trophies, and medals with you, but much like the famous swimmer Michael Phelps, who stayed in the pool a little longer than most swimmers to train day and night for the next performance, Ben Ulansey has written 500 long stories, more than most of the well-known top writers.
That means he’s put pen to paper 500 times.
Of those 500 long form stories, (only) 84 were boosted
That’s 17%.
I’m impressed by that number.
Often new writers want to get on the platform and BOOM they get boosted and earn $500 for a story. It happens (as with my friend JR Roessl), but it’s also smart to build a nice library of stories so that Boost nominators and Medium curators know that this is someone who consistently writes about specific meta-topics that interest them and an expert on their own experiences.
