My July Medium Wrap-Up

I’m a regular writer on Medium (check out my wrap-up for June and August)and instead of cross-posting every article on my blog, I do a monthly wrap up. The only thing is that sometimes I forget to actually do the wrap up. So even though it’s September, here’s what I was writing about in July…Enjoy!
