Meeka Anne, thanks for your article. I am in similar situation except that you took action on Feb 16 and I just started working on this and tomorrow is the deadline. As some other authors responded here, that email did push me to work harder and get one more article published as soon as possible : ) As of today, I have less than 30 followers, and I am likely to be kicked out of the partner program tomorrow, but I'll get myself back here one day, for fun!
