This post was compiled by ILLUMINATION editors on behalf of Dr Mehmet Yildiz (Tech)

New writers can find more information about our publications on Medium from the master onboarding pack that we regularly update.

Dear Readers and Writers,

Reading these bios delighted us. Therefore, we compiled them in a single post. You will enjoy these lovely pieces too. When reading these stories, we felt like conversing with the author of the biography.

Some were removed from the original source, but they are still accessible. So we don’t mind wherever writers host their stories. Whatever makes the writers happy makes us happy too.

Dr Mehmet Yildiz, owner and chief editor of Illumination Integrated Publications, recommended all writers submit a biography to his publications. Many writers did. This is a cross-pollination tool.

Dr. Yildiz curated the writer bios in 2020, but he is very busy orchestrating the workload of ten publications supported by 145 volunteer editors supporting 25,000+ writers on Medium.

He explained the six reasons why every writer needs to create a bio on Medium. I assume there will be more bios soon. I will add them to this collection as this is my giveback to the community.

First, let’s give a warm welcome to new writers who joined us recently. Let’s support them by exploring their profiles and stories. We look forward to their bios and profiles soon. We will update this list weekly.

New writers, please consider introducing yourself in a story, and we will compile them in this collection to create visibility to your account.

Here are the two sets of collections Dr. Yildiz created in 2020.

ILLUMINATION Integrated Publications support every level of ethical writers, from beginners to the most accomplished ones, collaborating to delight readers.

The ILLUMINATION team enjoys creating visibility for the great stories of our inspiring writers. Well-written stories always find new readers in our publications. We amplify them by distributing them to relevant audiences on multiple platforms.

For those who don’t know our publications, here is the list with links.
