It's true, humans come in all kinds.
I don't need to know about it, it's just for spreading the message's reach. That said, most of my content isn't quite there yet. Introspection upon reading your piece inspired me to go on a mass deletion spree when I reach 300 stories on Medium, to weed out all the times I was unconfident or just plain fucking around. Which was often.
It's why I'm not surprised that so many new writers have grown their accounts 10x faster than me, often because they write with value intended for their readers.
Half my stories have been self-sabotage.
Only yesterday did I decide I should officially stop that.
