Many thanks for including me in your piece. That’s a great selection you have gathered. I am honoured to be part of it. You’re right about the 100 follower rule. Despite the nonsense of the MPP requirement, the journey you are required to travel on gives you a greater sense of the Medium community and how supportive it is. Take care and enjoy the journey. As long as you’re writing then you’re doing okay. And if you are writing then you are a writer. Everything else is an add-on, a bonus. Just keep writing.
