Tom, I believe the Coronvirus has affected everyone’s read rate. The band with on Medium is only so wide and all “other” stories are getting compressed. In my state, Friday was the start for “Shelter in Place” orders. People are scurrying to check in with relatives they might night see a month.

April will be different. Enjoy your interactions with like-minded writers and stay inspired. I pouted when “Bring Back the Rocking Chair” got so few reads, because I researched, got great photos, formatted correctly, and entertained. The moment I posted it, I got the not covered in topics message.
