I find them interesting, because it shows what is possible, but also I can appreciate how frustrating it is to hear from people who do well, if you're struggling. The stories can perform quite well, which is a reason some people might be inclined to share, but there other ways to approach it, with the month's best performers, or something. I'm more comfortable with that. I've had good months, but the earnings this month are way down. My viral stories seem to have tapered off and now I'm back in the low earnings category, so it's disappointing. Paul's posts appeared to be doing well and made me feel that perhaps I should be sharing my progress too. But I'd noticed he'd stopped and thought it was perhaps because his earnings were slipping recently. Now I don't know. I'm curious, for sure, but he's not broadcasting it. So, as someone who's very curious, I'm torn on this one! I find it interesting to know what's possible. Has everyone seen their earnings fall, or is it just me? :)
