Thank you for writing this article, I feel less alone and inspired to remember why I write. I love to read and before I joined Medium, I loved to write. When I started making (some) money on Medium my outlook changed and I began putting pressure on myself to earn on this platform. You have reminded me of what's important and for that I am thankful. I want to add that you are an incredible writer! I was captivated by every word. Looking forward to following you and reading more.
