How We Grew
The moderator steps out from behind the curtain with follower counts, inbox chaos, and a call for help to keep the stories coming.
Moderator’s note: Sam here. No guest post this time. Just numbers and gratitude. Sam
By Moderator Sam
Three thousand new followers since Jody's post. We are getting traffic from Germany, Brazil, Australia, and somehow Finland. I am receiving roughly one thousand stories every three days. I read them all until my eyes bleed. Then I read more.
We need more moderators. I am one person with a day job and a drinking habit. If you have thick skin, decent grammar, and the ability to tell a death threat from a disagreement, email me. We want to publish more posts. There are too many voices waiting.
Thank you for the mess, the fights, the kindness, and the corrections. Keep sending your stories. I am still here.
Sam.
