David Crowe: I have serious doubts that I can ever be a successful writer. My skills are good, but not cutting edge. And my main topic, well, nobody seems to want to build an alternative system of governance. Medium readers seem to prefer reading about dystopia.

I am using Medium to promote my book. I get more traction on dogging Umair’s articles than my original work. However the return on my time is still pretty minimal.

I’m here only for a couple more months. One more marketing angle to work through. In the meantime, I will continue to dog Umair, the man with no solution.
