My Monthly Update on Medium, News Break and Substack

Is that light at the end of the tunnel?

I’ll get right to my Medium bottom line for April. I made $613.01. In March I made $621.67. So April marks another decline in income, but I actually feel a little bit better than I did a month ago. The second half of April actually improved.

In the month of March, I had zero stories get 1,000 views. In April I had two get to that level. My story about Charlie’s Angels is sitting at 1.2K views and the piece about My Favorite One-Liners is at 2.1K views.

Monetarily, the story that has had legs is on I wrote in February about Gilligan’s Island. It’s still producing regularly and as of today, has made $207.86.

There is still at least some meat on the bone at Medium.

And oh yes, I still haven’t been boosted.

So, what about Medium going forward?

I’ll continue to ride it out. Medium gives me a base income. And repurposing my content has given me multiple opportunities to make money.

A lot of what I’m posting on News Break is content I’ve repurposed from Medium. As for the money on News Break, it hasn’t been great, but has been worth my time. Considering I haven’t spent a lot of time on News Break.
