It’s more about what you are choosing to do with your words

Lately, I’ve read heartfelt articles from Medium writers who just can’t seem to get into publication. I am new here, so please don’t take my words as EXPERT advice. This is only what I have noticed for myself and how I am getting into some publications.

Pssst! This one was NOT accepted into publication, but the good news is my message is still delivered straight to you.

Are you choosing publications wisely?

When I began writing, I did not think I could get into publication.

Well, I was only thinking of writing. All of those publication challenges and such was not on my radar, so I just wrote and published my own work.

Then, this past September, a publication was calling all writers to write about a certain event and I was all in. So, for me, it was all about timing and I earned quite a bit from that article. The traffic was heavy because it was a Nationally recognized day.

Another tip: Are you choosing publications that cater to who YOU are?
