I love writing. When I saw a chance to monetize it, I went for it, filled up the forms ec cetera. But, in just 2 weeks Stripe closed down my account. I don't understand why, but I still continue writing anyway. I only felt a bit hurt Stripe shut me down as "business is risky" when I have no business, I was just using Stripe to receive payments for writing on Medium. Haha...anyway, all is good. It is okay not monetizing it. I simply love to write. Perhaps if I stop writing it is because I just wanted to keep myself back to privacy.
