PLEASE SEE THIS FROM HOGAN BELOW:

Tom’s Medium success is largely fabricated by himself.

I don't follow Mr. K for this very reason. As a world traveler, prize winning author and journalist, I can bloody well prove every single thing I say and do. That is veracity. Also I spend NO TIME dicking with my readers about how great I am. About the only thing legendary about me are my farts, which is likely why I'm still single. I follow very few people. The more folks toot their own horns, the more they smell like my farts, which are at least, authentic.

I laughed my ASS off at this line. Worth the price of admission to Medium just to read that. THE best smackdown for arrogant, self-important "legendary" (oh for fuck's sake) Medium writers ever. When Mr. K can do what I do in the travel world, fine. Difference is I have more than 200k photos to bloody well prove it.

Mentoring is, at its best, one on one and person to person. Mr. K's argument that you can be mentored on YouTube, well, pardon me while I pass gas on that one. That isn't mentoring. That's watching a video. Gathering data. NOT mentoring.
