It’s been a few years but when I explored Wattpad it became obvious that it is a website almost exclusively for writers. Any readers there are just other writers. That did not appeal to me at all. Plus the audience seemed really small. I prefer right-brained readers who are interested in more than just regurgitated facts, data and opinion. I like a balance between fiction and non-fiction just as I like a balance between right and left brain hemispheres. I crave creative stories that stoke my imagination rather than just the same old facts and self-help where the only creativity is in how it is slightly differently regurgitated.

It would be nice if there was a left-brained Medium (the one that exists now) and also a creativity-based right-brained Medium. But what I what like even more would be one Medium that is balanced between data-based left brain thinking and creative right brain thinking. That would be awesome. One of Medium’s biggest problems is that it is so profoundly unbalanced.

Thanks, Eric, for your response.
