I’m with Benjamin Sledge on this. I scrolled through the list looking for someone from the literary side of Medium and found – just one, tucked near the bottom. While I’m glad anna breslin made the list – wow, only one poet and fiction writer rated a mention in your so-called Top Writers on Medium? There is a thriving community of storytellers, fiction writers and poets on this site (though you wouldn’t know it, from what the Medium algorithms seem to actively promote) and in there you will find some of the most talented and thought-provoking writers telling stories in this medium. And it’s a travesty that over again, mediocre recycled content is promoted over these thoughtful, well-crafted stories. If Ev Williams really cared about great writing on this site, he’d send a little more love to the fiction writers and poets who have created a thriving community and found a (albeit uncertain) home here.
