What have I been writing about this week? December 2021 This past month I’ve hardly written anything. And yet, my Medium earnings are the second best of all time! So, it just goes to show that you don’t have to stress about churning out content all the time in order for things…

Because it’s my little spot on Medium and I can write about what the heck I want to! — It’s been a while since I last posted on Medium. In fact, I just checked. I wrote one piece at the beginning of March and 6 in January and that was it for this year. Not gonna lie, I’ve found it really hard this year to keep up with my…

Keep to the exact plot or channel the spirit of the book? — In the past few months we’ve been spoiled. Just look at all of these TV or movie adaptations of beloved books that have been made!

The best and worst performing stories — The year is almost done. Over. Complete. But the act (and art) of writing is never done, there’s always more to write! Before I start writing on the next piece though, it’s worth taking a quick look over the past year of writing and thinking about what worked and what…
