Thank you, that was a useful article and remainder to not worry and keep writing. However, I think the quote is definitely true long term but short term as a reader I'm not seeing that. A quality post by a new writer is unlikely to get read by many people. On the other hand a pretty mediocre or even poor post by an established Medium writer will get a lot of response. Either way, I think the best advice for new writers like myself is to just keep writing with as much quality as we can muster.
