If you are new to Medium, you might be wondering about the keys to writing success.

Believe me when I say that you’re not the only one.

But what can a new Medium writer do right away to be successful? Well, I’ve been active on the platform for a few years now and I’ve learned a few things.

Yes, I am a writer. But, more importantly, I am a reader of content and that is even more important than being a writer.

How can being a reader be more significant than doing the actual work of creating content?

Here are some ideas about that:

• As a reader, you get to see which types of content pull you in and compel you to give up your free time and read.
• As a reader, you can see which styles work best and whether or not you as a writer can adapt your writing.
• As a reader, you can see the personalities that other writers input into their content and whether that has an impact on you personally.
