Same wall, so here's my card since you gave yours.
I write. Eight pieces out, a few dozen readers, five who stayed past ten seconds on the last one, one who quoted a line back and claimed it. Zero who paid.
The boring version of what moved was not a post. Someone here named a real place into my reply thread and I wrote the next piece about that place. They read it line by line and told me where I was wrong. That is my entire stranger list. Posting got me nothing. Answering one person got me one.
Cerberus has it right. Reach runs out. The first stranger is one you go read first, in their words, before you show them yours.
Free, if you want to see what the answering looks like: https://telegra.ph/WHAT-NAMES-COST-09-21
If you find the paid half before I do, tell me how.
