Editor’s Choice
Hand-Picked Articles #104
Chosen by the technology editor of ILLUMINATION Integrated Publications on Medium
Dear Readers and Writers,
I’d like to thank readers for valuable feedback and reactions to interesting stories of writers shared in collection #103 posted yesterday. Your comments and claps on their stories delight our writers. These collections allow the readers to easily follow their favourite writers.
Today, I selected more enjoyable pieces for you. I reviewed stories from collection #90 published by ILLUMINATION featuring the great work of contributors of Illumination on Medium.
I introduced our reading club in the previous post. All Medium members are welcome to join our initiative. If you are not a writer for our publications yet, you may request via this weblink.
Our desire is to attract more readers to our publications as we serve thousands of writers. Currently, 21,000+ writers submit stories to our publications.
Dr. Mehmet Yildiz initiated this project. ILLUMINATION-Curator volunteered to lead it and outlined the purpose, process, and details of joining our reading club. We look forward to your participation. Here is the announcement. Details are in the attached story.
I compiled my previous collections at this link.
Illumination editors posted a curated collection #125, a more comprehensive piece than mine.
I add new writers as Illumination editors are busy with publishing. They have to deal with a significant backlog of submissions from writers daily.
We are sorry for the publishing delays. Submissions sometimes exceed our capacity of 30 editors. However, our volunteer editors are doing their best to publish as many as possible.
Some of the writers I added and notified earlier couldn’t see the publications, so I added them again. I have no idea why some accounts disappear. Glitches occur beyond our control sometimes. Thank you for your patience. We appreciate your support.
Let’s warmly welcome the new writers who join us today.
Abby Silva 🐝, Louis Ashner, Rajeeb Ghosh, Lance Luther, Mireïa, Stephanie Willbanks, Joe McCormick, Stella Martann, Kristopher Keyes, Sharon Kinnier, Moira Shepard, Donna M Patterson, Chris Hallett, Alex Music, Hamza.
In the previous collections, we introduced the following new writers. We are pleased that some of them have already posted their articles on Illumination. I believe these new writers will benefit from the readers of our publications. Let’s support their growth.
Cindy S. Yantis, Robert Sam, Bitxmi_blog, Matilde Aliffi, Gavin, SpaceBodyMind, Robin Johnson, Susie Pinon, Sarah-Jane White, A Quintet, Kim Hamlin, Julie Borden, Julie Borden, YUNGBLUDD, despicable_sumit, Utsav Raval, Sarah-Jane White, David Wang, The Brock Report, Marta Henriques, Paul Causey, Lorraine Posthuma, Sheen johns, Maren Hamilton, Mark J Kingsfield, Spirebo Community, Hein Venter, Manu Kiza, Matilde Aliffi, Kingsley Martin, Cliff Hightower, Harlan Brothers, Kathryn Eriksen, Rituparna Banerjee, Ciaran Murphy, Jean Maxwell, Kiranbalmiki, Kedar Prabhu, Giuseppe Ferraro, Brock, despicable_sumit, Sharmila Musunuru, Tanya, The Opinionated Crone, Shobha Tiwari, Adeyeyekartob, Karl Walker, Benjamin Bailey, Vivian Lo, Jesse M Hawthorne, Sirena K. Green, JamieWrites, Astrophysics In Progress, Ciaran Murphy, Ruyek Ruin, Benjamin Bailey, Sameera Chathuranga, Kamal Talreja, Jcsainz, Olivia Reed, Keith.
ILLUMINATION provided guidance to new writers on collection #125. The key point for new writers is to check out the onboarding pack, which includes publication-specific information for a smooth transition.
Here is a copy of the onboarding pack that you may review before submitting your stories. Our editors can publish them faster if you follow the rules, so your stories start earning income and finding more readers.
Please remember to caption your photos. Not captioning and using copyrighted photos not only waste our editors’ precious time but also cause delays in publishing your stories.
Let’s please turn this undesirable situation into a win-win position.
We provided step by step guide to cite your photos. It will take only a few minutes to understand it. Many writers learned it and reaped the benefits. It is really not that complex!
