I’m sure we can. I have no dreams of “becoming a writer.” I’m retired but I do like writing and I find that Medium is a great outlet. There are so many nice people here! It takes time to build up a network. You have to read a lot of stuff, clap, and respond. I don’t typically encourage IRL people to read my work on Medium. For one thing they almost never follow through and for another thing I get quite personal sometimes. There are some things IRL people just don’t need to know.

My motto:

What happens on Medium — stays on Medium.
