I Earned $1.22 For One 43 Second Read
--
Thank you mysterious Medium algorithm
Yes it is true!
Much to my surprise!
Last night I earned $1.22 from one article I wrote mid-February. It was a short post, and read in forty three seconds.
I wrote about the beautiful fresh cut flowers I had received for Valentine’s Day. I wanted them to last a wee bit longer.
Drying, baking, pressing, and the desiccant method are all great techniques to extend the life of your fresh cut flowers.
I used the drying method. It worked perfectly. My flowers lasted for weeks.
Back to my initial point.
Originally published mid-February and lacking views or reads, I believed this article buried and gone.
However, one lovely reader brought it back to life.
I thank you!
