I try to create genuine and authentic content. I put a lot into creating art and images for my writing too. What I love about Medium is the interaction we have with readers. I often follow new writers who interest me, even if they're not members yet. My following is nothing spectacular. However, most genuinely reciprocate when they click on one of my titles.

I'm an avid reader. When I'm feeling well, I might read fifty or more posts a day. If someone engages on my posts, I love that and love returning the favor. I read pretty quickly, I guess — upwards of the twice the default speed of the robowhine. I was using the claps log to make sure I reciprocated for everyone who reads my work.

That's why clap jumpers bug me so much. They're luring us to give our time and support to them when they're just gaming the system to swindle us and Medium.
