Is the fact that I am making more money this pay period because I have published 100 articles?

That would be nice!

I wrote my 100th article on Medium in the middle of December. I didn’t notice any improvement in earnings at the time and have forgotten about it until today.

On Tuesday, I noted that my current earnings are TWICE what they have been in the past. That is a significant jump, no matter how much you make!

Now, don’t get me wrong, I don’t make a huge income on Medium. I have only been here for 4 months. But, to suddenly make double, well, that is noteworthy.

The January earnings fiasco is still underway. My documented earnings for January have been zero, zero, zero, once cent, zero (you get the picture). But, the truth is, I took some time off in December, so what I expected was to earn LESS this pay period, not double.

As far as I understand, our current balance is calculated from the 10th day of the previous month to the 9th of the current month.
