It should be working again now. They said something about my account triggered their spam filter, but they reviewed it and released my account for public viewing again.

Thanks for checking, Sam and Alex! At least I know it is not just me. I sent an email to Medium. Hoping they get back to me soon!

Something strange happened to my Medium page. I can see all my stories and profile when I am logged in, but when I am logged out, it is as if nothing exists and none of the links I have posted work. Anyone else having the same problem? I can see all of your pages when I am not logged in.

Another one for me this week: https://medium.com/scribe/how-beautif...

If any of you are considering submitting your work to publications, I highly recommend it! My views lately had dropped off to nearly nothing because Medium rarely curates my articles anymore. By submitting to publications, my views have improved significantly AND it is easy once you have been added as a writer.

Thanks to everyone who has recommended submitting to publications. Wish I listened to you earlier! lol

Loving these "How I would live if money wasn't an issue" articles! Great idea, Carole! I have sat down multiple times to write mine, and every time I get interrupted. Life with kids...and a dog...and a cat...haha

Thanks, Carole and Sam. We are in the clear now and had no damage from the last round of storms. :)

I hope everyone in this group living in the Midwest has been safe these last couple weeks. It has been very eventful. Here is a story inspired by the Tuesday tornadoes that hit my area (luckily, our home was fine) along with some pictures of the storm rolling in. https://medium.com/@egraham040/how-to...

Congratulations, Carole! And wonderful news, Anna!

Thank you, Carmel!

I had a second article accepted and published through P.S. I Love You! https://psiloveyou.xyz/the-secret-to-...

I have read Dale's articles. They are what got me thinking about it. He has looked a lot further into it than I have. Lol

Someone clapped 4 times for an article I wrote 2 months ago and I was credited $3.34 for it. A new article I wrote that has 175 claps for the week from 5 different people only received $2.27. I am done trying to figure out Medium's payment system. Lol

I really enjoyed that one, Sam!

Thanks everyone. I am having trouble with Medium on and off too. I think there may be issues with the website.

*Happy dance* one of the articles I submitted to a publication was accepted and published today! This is similar to an article I did before, but I altered it to fit the specifications of the publication. Here it is: https://psiloveyou.xyz/finding-love-w...

Thanks, D.J.! The process of applying is very easy. The part that takes the longest is sifting through all the publications to find the best fit for each article.
