I believe I am beyond qualified to speak about this

As a member of the Medium Partner Programme who didn’t receive a Stripe Payment last month or the month before, I thought it would be a great idea to share what I have done — so you can avoid it at all costs if you have any intentions of making money on this app.

Write about a whole range of things — Don’t stick to a niche!

Any of the 7 people who read my articles will agree with me when I say that I don’t have a niche. I write about anything that comes to my mind.

For example, my last article was about gun violence and mass school shootings in America. It is a highly controversial, political topic that some writers may avoid writing about, but this morning at 7 AM, gun violence was exactly what I wanted to write about — so that’s what I did.
