Hi freshie writer,

For our start on Medium:

The biggest question we have is, will anybody read my work?

Ultimate Tip

Don’t worry. We’ll find out that yes some “one” will read our work. “One” will become “two”, “two” will become “three”, and so on. As a freshie writer on Medium, the best thing to do from the beginning is to write as if you already have a reader. Doing this is being prepared for what will come.

You’ll be pleased that you sowed (put in the work unnoticed) and reap the harvest (your writings gaining attention).

Bonus Tip

Metrics are an discouragement to our confidence as a freshie writer, so do yourself a favor and ignore them as you build your online writing home.
