Followers Are Nice, Readers Are Better

By Bert Rock

Medium is not Twitter. Or at least I thought it wasn’t supposed to be. I see the whole push to get followers and I get it, we want to make money. Who doesn’t? But for me, I’d rather you read my work than just follow me for the sake of getting a follow back. I don’t care if I make money here. Writing is meant to be read. Read my work, comment, clap, criticize me…I welcome all of it. Just read me, and I will read you.
