My profound feeling is that writing completes me and this is the story of my love affair with medium

I first fell for Medium on Monday, February 6, 2017. It wasn’t just another platform; I was drawn in by its beautiful typography and clean, minimalist design. It felt like love at first sight, but life got busy, and I didn’t jump in right away.

The crowded internet is filled with clickbait links, that make it impossible to reach the story you were looking for. It offers an exceptional experience for readers and writers to connect.

Finding Medium has truly changed my writing journey. The calm environment allows my creative thoughts to flow easily. The clean layout helps readers focus on my words, and the straightforward writing tools make it simple to express myself.

I appreciate the writing features it offers. The Markdown support makes formatting easy, while the automatic saving ensures I never lose drafts. Inviting others to collaborate adds a fun twist.

With just one click, I can share my thoughts, and the scheduling option helps me plan my posts like a well-thought-out letter. Customizing article links gives each piece a personal touch, making them feel special. Publishing on Medium is a sheer joy.

The built-in community of readers connects me with my tribe who enjoy similar topics, and I love getting feedback through highlights and comments. Following other writers keeps me inspired and engaged with fresh ideas.

When it comes to discovering content, its curated collections and tagging system make it easy to find articles that interest me. The recommendations help me explore new viewpoints and grow as a writer.

While some might think the limited design options are a downside, I see them as a huge plus. This consistency creates a smooth reading experience, letting my writing shine.

My love affair with Medium has greatly influenced my writing journey. I recently bought a fountain pen, writing with it on paper brings an incomparable feeling. I’m excited to keep sharing my stories on this platform and connect with other writers and readers. It is a writer’s delight.

Last month, when it launched the Partner Program in India, I knew it was time to rekindle that spark. Knowing my work can be recognized and even rewarded on reader interest encourages me to put my best effort.

I wholeheartedly endorse Medium’s effort to create a cleaner web. I hope this love affair lasts a long time because it feels like we have only just begun.
