September has been a busier-than-average writing month for me — I’m not too sure why. It could be because I’ve been so heavily focused on marathon training that I’m in need of a creative outlet or the fact that I’ve just been more active on Medium lately. Whatever the case, it’s caused somewhat of a reboot in my creative flow.

Prior to September, I had only published two or three articles each month for the past few months. This month, I’ve published eight thus far (nine if I were to include this one). However, not all of them have necessarily been “home runs”, which I’m okay with.

A majority of them were not selected to be curated within any topics — Honestly, only three out of the eight articles I published this month were which has resulted in a smaller opportunity for the non-curated articles to gain much exposure. Plus, if you don’t have a massive following and your article doesn’t get curated on top of that, it’s likely that your article will be lost and forgotten in the Medium world, with a very slim chance for it to ever be discovered by a reader.

And that’s where the author has to do more of the leg work when it comes to shameless
