Meet my friend, Alf. You should follow him on Medium.
I’ve been on Medium awhile now. Over the years, I’ve loved the ability to discover new writers.
One new writer on Medium happens to be my friend, Alfonso Zapata. I recommend you follow him.
Yes, I’m biased because Alf is my friend. A friend who I’m totally going to embarrass right now (he has NO idea I’m writing this. lol Alf!)
Alf’s writing is what Medium needs more of: Personal essays about life shit that cut to the core but are still highly entertaining to read.
As a humor writer, I’ve always kept a bit of a distance from my “feelings” (what are those?). Which is why I love Alf’s candor and hold-nothing-back approach to all his writing. While still keeping it funny.
So yeah, if you like personal humor essays with a nice dose of reality, you’ll love his stuff. He will be writing a new essay every week. (Which I’m so excited about.)
Okay, that’s my pitch. Please give Alfonso a warm welcome to Medium. And give him a follow, too, while you’re at it.
