You can do it too

When I wrote my first story on Medium I was just trying to get the dust out of my fingers. It had been a while since I had last written anything. The idea of someone else reading it was even daunting. Hitting “publish” was scary!

But like most of us here, writing can be fun! So I immediately decided I wanted to do that for real and get into the Medium Partner Program. I needed 100 followers first, though. And I got that, in exactly 10 days and with just 2 stories published.

That’s how I did it.

I wrote about it

After publishing that first story, I wrote another one thanking my future followers. I know, trying to get followers by writing about that doesn’t seem the best way to do it. You should just really keep writing good content. But lots of new writers are doing that and it worked! So far, it has been the most viewed story I wrote here.

I shared the story on a Medium’s Facebook group
