Wow! Thank you so much, Arpad! I really appreciate your feedback. Good to know you liked seeing me mention stats. I didn't want to be too boring with that so figured I won't do it every week, but will update frequently.

And no, I didn't know my progression is "substantially better" than most new pubs. I've only known it in comparison to my others.

We're up to 848 followers as of this moment!! In 15 weeks. Now up to 96 writers - although most of them aren't contributing (yet!). Still amazes me that this many people wanted to join.

Lovely of you to be catching up on the stories - along with your zillion other Medium involvement, editing, reading, writing ... Crikey. You are a machine, Arpad, the way you just keep going going going going!!! Don't you ever get tired??! I mean, I CAN'T DO IT ANYMORE kinda tired?!?

You inspire me.
