The #1 Rule to writing on Medium.

2 Lessons I’ve learnt after taking a hiatus from writing on Medium

After a couple of weeks of reduced activity on Medium…

I realised… I need to write.

That is the most poignant thing I’ve learnt: yes, I am a true writer.

Lesson 1: A true Writer MUST write.

Something just feels wrong when I’m not posting something on a regular basis.

It’s a feeling that comes from the inside. It’s almost like I’ve become biologically sick when I don’t write enough.

When I say “write” I also mean those short notes or a paragraph of free-writing I type into my phone’s notepad every now and then throughout the day. So they aren’t necessarily “organised” the way my Medium articles are.

However, that’s still considered writing to me, because my definition of writing is when you can honestly express a high-value message.
