Firstly, thank you very much for the shout. I've had a lot of fun on Medium (and am still having a lot of fun). Why do I stay? Well, mostly for the money, to be blunt (I'm a full time writer with bills to pay), but I also love the interactions with fellow writers such as your good self. Medium has always been a side project for me (the novels are my main focus, along with various freelance writing projects from former TV colleagues), but I'm thrilled that people seem to be interested in what I write about here. :)
