Import error on Windows Subsystem for Linux and Windows

Hi!

When I try to run your program, I get this error:

brandon@DESKTOP-KSVAT30:/mnt/c/Users/Brandon/Desktop/med/medium_to_ghost-master/medium_to_ghost$ python3 medium_to_ghost.py medium-export.zip
Traceback (most recent call last):

Even though it is installed:

I've tried to google around and I couldn't fix this :(

Just realised - Windows is Python 3.5, Linux is Python 3.6.7 😅 Doesn't fix the problem, was just adding more information 😄

Update: I asked my friend on Mac to try this out, he's having "no module named click" despite click being installed 😞

I've got the same issue on Mac. Running Python 3.7.2

.../medium_to_ghost-master/medium_to_ghost/medium_to_ghost.py", line 3, in from medium_to_ghost.medium_post_parser import convert_medium_post_to_ghost_json ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'medium_to_ghost.medium_post_parser'; 'medium_to_ghost' is not a package

I've fond the solution here:

I've updated the instructions to say python3 -m medium_to_ghost.medium_to_ghost medium-export.zip which should work for everyone.
