Writing on Medium

essay

A few years ago, before I started reading and writing on Vocal.com I was, and still have an account on Medium.com even though I haven't written there very much since writing here. On that site I posted very short works and writing ideas, and if I remember there is also some of my artwork. To be honest I did receive some views for my work, but not many. After several months to almost a year I started to write for other sites for there was one named personapaper.com based out of England now. It was a paying site till the owners decided to sell or would another word be better like sellout. It was a fun site to write for though.

When I mentioned about me getting some views for my work on Medium even after starting here on Vocal.com I thought hopefully some of the creators/writers here would like to read some of my work from that site. I am thinking about sharing my work from here on Medium, but for some reason when I tried to export from Medium to Vocal it didn't work, and I am thinking about doing once again the 'legwork' and I mean just going ahead and retyping many of my articles from Vocal to Medium.

I am wishing that some of my subscribers would not mind reading my work on Medium as well for I would really appreciate it and it will also let me earn a little bit more and make my writing career a bit more feasible economically. Please let me know what you think of my idea of mine for I am in need of another site to earn some extra money that would be nice.

Medium.com other than a few other sites like Textbroker.com where it seemed I never got more than a few miscellaneous topics to write about and never got approved. There were a few other writing sites I applied to, but it turned out they went bust as well. What I could never figure out is why the internet still had these sites listed. Personapaper.com exists but does not pay. I really like writing, but it is a real job and a lot of work not to earn something. Comments are nice, but pocket money is good to earn a well.

My writing projects as a review range from book reviews, lectures, stories, poems and artwork. Again, I hope some of my subscribers will also read my work now on Medium as well. Thank you for reading.

    I am on Medium and still write there. I also run a fiction and poetry publication there along with travel and lifestyle publications. I have earned a lot there but lately the pay has plummeted drastically.

    I wrote and edited on Medium from June 2021 until August 2024. I know that Medium is different now and some people I know who remained on the platform report a lot of wonky things happening, especially lately. I cannot believe you are having such a hard time with the import story option. Definitely rewrite your work and cross-post. As for Textbroker, sigh, I tried them, too and it basically was a waste of time.

  • Medium has weird things happening today. I think it’s worth rewriting and posting to Vocal. Keep up the good work! You are one of my favs.

    It sounds like you’ve poured a lot of passion and dedication into your writing journey, exploring different platforms and always seeking ways to share your creativity.

    It is not a bad idea. I have a Medium account for more than 2 years. I'm just telling you that Medium made many changes in the Medium Partner Program, and the earnings are really low.

    I subscribed to Medium about six weeks ago, so I'll look for you. I posted a few stories there, also. I was away for a week but now since I'm back home, I need to begin writing again. I feel like I need a vacation from my vacation. Talk about exhaustion!
