12 Acronyms To Make Your Medium Publication Editors Say YES (Yes Exceptional Stuff)

Have you ever wondered what you must do to get a response or acceptance from a Medium publication editor? You and I know what it’s like never to receive a reply, not even an automated robotic one.

As we sob ourselves to sleep, we imagine all sorts of ways to get their attention. What are we missing? We know what they are missing–they have deleted a few hundred emails by mistake. They didn’t mean to do that, of course. It was just that all the IT stuff got too much for them.

Have you thought about using GIFs? Don’t bother — these are too difficult to open and occupy far too many gigabytes, grababite, or chowbites. They tend to leave editors feeling a little peckish.

So, why not pepper your email pitches with appropriate, funny and engaging acronyms?

No need for long, rambling constipated sentences.

This hack will save them some reading time and I can assure you that Medium editors have a list of these pinned to their computers so they really do know what you are on about. A whistleblower told me!

Just learn these acronyms off by heart and use them sparingly. Editors will immediately warm to you because their reading load has become gigantic and they are stressed out.

“You can’t take over the world without a good acronym” ― C.S. Woolley

Here we go. We start with MEDIUM (Marvelous, Energized, Dazzling, Imagine, Uptight, Mean). My whistleblower has just told me that the MEDIUM acronym has been replaced with (Magnanimous Eternal Democratic Ideal Upright Message).

All these are really POWER (Publish Original Wisdom Educational Resource) words and they will make your editor sit up and take notice.

It just might be the nudge to click accept rather than reject.

  • LOVE (Let Our Voices Echo)
  • ZEN (Zero Effort Network)
  • HACK (Health And Cyber Knowledge)
  • EASY (Enchanting Affectionate Sassy You)
  • LAUGH (Let Art Unleash Great Happiness)
  • MAGIC (Making Authors Great Involves Commitment)
  • NEW (Network Extasy Week) — double/triple curation on the way!
  • SAVVY (Super Article Vivavcious Vigorous Yes)
  • SEXY (Simple Exciting Xceptional Yes)
  • BOLD (Bliss Open Laugh Dazzling)
  • BOMB (Brilliant One Motivating Beautiful)
  • EPIC (Enchanting Phenomenal Innovative Clincher)

All you have to do is to get on the editor’s wavelength. The best way is to use a few of the above acronyms.

If you are desperate, try MERCY (Medium Editors Rock Click Yes).
