I'm still lost with medium publishing. * Did not check box for my most widely read article that had 15k views, so did not get any money. Clicked link for two other articles (10k and 5k reads), yet $$ for each is super different (I know it depends on /who/ reads, but hard to get a sense of what to expect) * Still don't exactly know what it means when someone asks me to publish to their publication. Is it exclusive? I know it is distributed. * Still can't figure out an easy way to separate out accounts (I write creative non-fiction and philosophy and poetry and I also write programming tutorials - not much overlap between the audiences) other than publishing into different publications. In general I like the Medium model, I like being there as a reader and a writer, but it is hard to figure out the best way to use it.
