You wrote and I do try to get back to people. It sometimes takes time. I did however, have one article take off l6 months or so after I posted it which was not good because I was in no situation to respond to things and I was getting thousands of hits. (Not that many comments but quite a few.)

I am good with hearing other points of view. That is how we all learn. You had a thoughtful response.

(Personal attacks or repeating talking points from any point of view are not really helpful though.)

I probably should not admit it but I joined medium to write things that I was writing on social media over and over. Medium was my "filing cabinet" so I did not have to start from scratch each time and could just make minor adjustments.

Then they published a article that took off and I realized that I had to adjust my thinking.

So this was one of the rare "document this". Others articles are thoughts I am trying to capture at that moment that might lead into other things or that will force me to clear up my thinking.

Other articles are here so that I can point people to it if I am trying to explain something but it can be difficult to explain verbally. This gives them a way to understand it better.

Other things are written to just get them out of my head so I can move to other things.

I have not used this to market myself.

Have you?
