"what really stood out was their context. What they were talking about." Awesome article and extremely right on target Clement. You made many valid points, and I can co-sign them, as a prolific writer with 400 published stories (by Monday :-). My five months on Medium has been a writing frenzy, and while some pieces I'm especially close to, their are some that I spit out and post with no effort at all. You get on a roll and you just go with the flow. Sometimes, we get too much in our head, worrying about stats and other crap, but posts like THIS one help us get back on track, so thanks dude :-)
