Closing Reciprocal and Lifeline
A Bittersweet Farewell
It is with a heavy heart that I write these words — words I never imagined I’d have to say. After three incredible years, filled with support and encouragement, I have made the difficult decision to close my two beloved publications, Reciprocal and Lifeline.
I never thought this day would come, and it deeply saddens me to take this step.I’ve waited patiently for a response from Medium, sending multiple emails in the hope of resolving things. Unfortunately, I never received any communication back, which has led me to this final decision. Once I’ve recovered all my writing posts, I will also be deactivating this account.
I want to express my deepest gratitude to all the writers of Reciprocal and Lifeline. Your support and contributions have meant the world to me, and together, we created something truly special. Thank you for being there, for sharing your talents, and for making these publications what they were.
Many of my writer friends have reached out, encouraging me not to let this setback end my writing journey. With their support, I’ve decided to create a new account where I will post occasionally. If you’d like to keep up with my writing, I’d love for you to join me there.
I will also continue to support my fellow writers because I genuinely enjoy reading your work.Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for everything. This may be the end of one chapter, but it’s not the end of the story.
