at least five fold more.
I mean, that's a conservative estimate more than anything else I've ever written that's gone online.
Like in a positive way.
I don't think I got a single negative comment or DM.
I normally don't even really get DMs for stories that I write, to be honest with you.
Maybe if like,
If GQ or whichever outlet I've written it for posts it on social, there'll be sort of comments there.
But personally, I don't normally get a ton of direct feedback.
And for this piece, I did.
I got a ton.
And it was all just like... Some of it was just like, hey, nice story.
I enjoyed how you reported it and wrote it.
But a lot of it was like...

There was a lot of, like, I feel the same way.
I had the same or a similar experience.
