Braving the Weird WordPress World
Celebrating my First Year Anniversary since I launched my blog on WordPress!
Read about my experience in my debut piece published on Medium via The Brave Writer.
Hope you have a good laugh. My son and I sure did. It’s takes guts, humor and humbleness to write the embarrassing truth. When I stumbled across this publication, The Brave Writer, it seemed like the right place for this story to be published.
The Brave Writer is a publication on Medium made by writers for writers and is “the next generation of writers breaking barriers together.” The mission of their publication is “to inspire and motivate writers to keep writing, take care of themselves, and become brave writers.”
Thank you to my fellow WordPress bloggers for your support and your bravery in your own writing. Here’s my story below.

Thanks, Todd. And well said about “giving authenticity a chance.” I’ll give that social media criticism a read. Thanks for sharing:)

Your article at Medium makes a lot of good points about blogging and writing in general. In terms of online content creation and feedback, it reminded me of a post I did when social media platforms were coming of age:

Writing for oneself and entering a zone where process takes precedent over readership is key. It may not lead to popularity or even good writing, but it does give authenticity a chance.
