Exactly 1 month ago, me, my fianceé, and my coworkers were landing in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. This was kind of a bittersweet trip. Per a local recommendation, we hiked to a hidden cove one day. Best day ever:

— Cat and Car:

After a little accident in January, we were short one car — and apparently one cat. After some patience and a few thousand Google searches, we found both in Feb 2023 :)

Remy, the cat!

—Published 9 stories on Medium (again)

I kept writing last month as I did in January. I published 9 stories, which brings me up to 18 so far this year.

The story where I invited Medium members to “roast me,” garnered the highest read ratio at 45%.

I feel like read ratio is the best metic because it means you kept readers engaged and delivered on what your headline offered.

But I hate an article about Medium “performed” the best. 🙄
