Curated Collection #137
Chosen stories from experienced writers for avid readers

Dear Readers and Writers,
After a few months, we managed to post a curated collection yesterday. Many thanks for the valuable feedback and encouragement to create visibility to the great stories of our contributors and support them.
ILLUMINATION Integrated Publications are diverse and inclusive, supporting 19K+ writers. Our goal is to give curated reading options to valued readers and to help the writers build their audience by creating visibility for their profiles and stories. We also blog our curated lists.
We encourage collaboration via our Slack Workspace by cross-pollinating all levels of writers with readers of many topics. You can share the links of your stories in our promotional channels for members.
If you missed the previous collection, here is the link.
The ILLUMINATION Amplifier team keeps selecting stories from our curated collections and distributing them to our readers to create daily visibility of well-written and informative stories. Here is the recent one to delight our readers and writers.
Today, we selected great stories and believe you will enjoy this new collection full of enjoyable and informative stories.
For new contributors, our publications support all levels of writers, from the most accomplished to beginners, to create collaboration and synergy on this platform.
Beginners gradually improve their skills by learning from the experience of accomplished writers. We don’t censor content as long as your stories meet Medium rules. Our rules are stated in the following policies.

Readers might search for their favorite writer by pressing the Ctr+F key in the keyword or search tool in the browser.
Illumination Integrated Publications include ILLUMINATION, ILLUMINATION-Curated, ILLUMINATION’ S MIRROR, ILLUMINATION Book Chapters, Technology Hits, SYNERGY, Readers Hope, Illumination on YouTube, Illumination Gaming, ILLUMINATION’s Blog, and the personal publication of our chief editor EUPHORIA.
Updates on Stats
Last month we informed that Medium removed chosen for further distribution label from stories in an article titled Is Further Distribution on Medium, RIP? We Have No Clarity Yet.
Our chief editor shared his initial thoughts in a story highlighting declined stats. But, he informed us that there was a slight improvement.
We hope it improves. Let’s remain optimistic and keep posting our best stories.

We remind all writers to review the updated photo handling policy as we still have problems.
Some writers couldn’t see publications in their profiles, so we added them again. We hope all writers can see them now. Sometimes glitches happen beyond our control. Sorry for the inconvenience!
We are sorry for the publishing delays. Some of our editors are unwell, and the ones on duty are doing their best to clear the backlog.
Onboarding Pack for New Writers
Thank you for joining our journey. We look forward to your interesting stories. Please review the attached onboarding pack before submitting your stories, as it includes helpful information to get you started quickly.
If you submit quality stories with captioned and copyright-free images, our editors can publish them faster. As a quick reminder, please particularly review the photo handling policy attached to the pack.
Dr Mehmet Yildiz, our chief editor, and owner of Illumination Integration Publications, will send you an invitation to our Slack workspace via the email you registered in the application form.
Slack is a tool safer than social media as editors moderate it. For more info about our publications, you may check Illumination Blog.
Joining Slack is optional and free for all members. Please contact Dr. Yildiz directly on Slack if you cannot see publications. Slack workspace has excellent benefits for writers. Currently, 12,800+ writers are members of Slack and collaborating in this moderated workspace.
Some applicants forgot to add their Medium ID when applying. Therefore, we couldn’t give them writer access.
If you see this message, please re-apply with a link to your Medium account or a link to one of your stories so that we can find you. Just your name is not enough, as multiple people have the same name.
Introducing your background in a story like the ones in this collection can help you gain more visibility. Readers enjoy reading writer bios to learn more about their background.
You may also check out great stories in our featured collection from the last three days. We believe you might find valuable and enjoyable pieces in the new and previous collections.
