Gaming on Medium

Invitation: Join ILLUMINATION Gaming Publication as a Writer

Your gaming stories have a new home on Medium now.

Purpose of the Story

Dear Writers,

I am pleased to announce that we have a new publication called ILLUMINATION Gaming.

As a community volunteer for Illumination Integrated Publications, supporting 16,000 writers, I established this publication to create a collaborative atmosphere on Medium, aiming to bring online gamers and game writers to one place.

Supported by the robust infrastructure established by Dr Mehmet Yildiz (chief editor of Illumination Integrated Publications), this publication and its facilities are open to all Medium writers.

With this ready infrastructure, including Slack workspace and multiple social media platforms, we can easily scale this new publication.

If you are interested in sharing your stories on ILLUMINATION Gaming, you can send a request to join the publication via this weblink link.

Several editors volunteered to help me publish and promote stories in this initiative.

This new publication accepts stories about every aspect of gaming, including both real-life and online games.

Gamification is of great interest to me.

I learned a lot about gamification and its importance in improving the qualities of our lives from a top writer Victoria Ichizli-Bartels who published numerous stories on Illumination recommended to me by Dr. Yildiz.

As I am a YouTuber and media consultant, I plan to share our interesting stories on YouTube and introduce contributing writers as I do other writers of Illumination Publications.

You may check the links to some of my introductory videos on this story.
