Editor Profile
Hey There, I’m Thrilled to Introduce Myself as an Editor for Illumination Publications
Warm greetings to writers and readers from the editors’ desk

Greetings, Esteemed Readers!
I am Fahaz Hameed, a medical doctor, business scholar, writer, editor, and book author. I am a firm believer in the enchanting power of timeless tales.
Through the art of writing, I embark on a journey of self-discovery, seeking knowledge, and nurturing creativity.
My passion is to craft captivating stories and heartfelt articles that resonate with readers, developing both intellectual and emotional connections along the way.
Value Of Human Connection
Human connection holds immense value in my life, and I find purpose in engaging in meaningful conversations and exchanging ideas.
By practicing empathy and compassion, I strive to contribute to building a unified sense of community in our often-divided world.
Explore My Books on Amazon
As a passionate writer, I have also authored several books, which you can find on Amazon. Here are a few of them:


I invite you to explore these books and dive into the realms of Public Speaking mastery and Serendipitous Wonders...
Discovering Medium and ILLUMINATION
Upon recommendation by a friend (Amanda) on LinkedIn, I discovered the world of Medium and was intrigued by the prospect of sharing my thoughts and ideas through writing.
As I delved deeper into this platform, I came across ILLUMINATION, a vibrant community of writers and readers.
Excited about the prospect of contributing to such an inspiring space, I decided to reach out to Dr Mehmet Yildiz, the visionary behind ILLUMINATION, seeking approval as a contributing writer.
Thrilled to be Part of ILLUMINATION Publications
I am happy to have taken this step toward becoming a part of ILLUMINATION Community. Dr Mehmet Yildiz’s warm welcome and encouragement have set the stage for an exciting journey as a writer on this platform. I am grateful for his support and mentorship.
Fellow editors on Illumination are very supportive. For example, I express my gratitude to The Sturg for publishing my stories regardless of the time, even when he is on holiday.
ILLUMINATION offers a comprehensive onboarding pack designed to guide new writers who are joining our publication.
A Privileged Role — Editor
After expressing my keen interest in becoming an editor to Dr Mehmet Yildiz, I conveyed my belief that working under his esteemed guidance and mentorship would be an invaluable opportunity for my professional growth.
In response, Dr Mehmet Yildiz first graciously granted me editor access to his new publication Lampshade of ILLUMINATION.
You may check the publishing and conduct guidance for Lampshade of ILLUMINATION if you plan to use AI tools. This is the only Illumination publication that accepts AI-written content. Other 11 publications only accept human-written content.
Later, I had the privilege of becoming an Editor for ILLUMINATION’S MIRROR and Readers Hope.
Reader’s Hope is a publication for absolute beginners on Medium.
ILLUMINATION MIRROR is a digital twin of ILLUMINATION
I will start soon to support Illumination when another editor needs a break. Unfortunately, Medium does not allow adding more than 30 editors per publication.
So Dr. Yildiz keeps the senior and most active editors on Illumination as thousands of writers submit stories to this large publication, now followed by over 70K readers on Medium.
A Commitment to Excellence
As an Editor, my commitment extends to diligently striving to publish your outstanding work. Your talent and creativity deserve to be showcased. Let’s work together to share your brilliance with our Enthusiastic readership.
Balancing Education and Pursuits
Besides my editorial role, I have pursued various academic pursuits to broaden my knowledge and skills. Currently, I am on a journey to acquire a Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA) degree, with a focus on Engineering and Project Management.
In addition to this, my educational journey has taken me to explore other fields as well. I have studied Business Statistics at the esteemed Stanford University. Moreover, I have also delved into the fascinating realm of Artificial Intelligence through online coursework offered by Lund University.
Furthermore, I hold a notable achievement in my educational journey, having previously studied MBBS (Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery) at AJ Institute of Medical Science. This experience has enriched my understanding of the medical field and instilled in me a profound appreciation for the complexity of healthcare.
With over 680+ certificates from LinkedIn, I am constantly pushing myself to new heights and achieving my goals.
By combining diverse academic disciplines, I strive to bring a unique perspective and holistic approach to my writing and editorial roles. I believe that interdisciplinary learning enhances creativity and problem-solving abilities, enabling me to serve better the community of writers and readers of which I am privileged to be a part.
Hobbies
During my free time, I indulge in various hobbies, including playing both indoor and outdoor games, immersing myself in cinematic experiences, and savoring the power of literature through books that expand my horizons and fuel my Imagination.
A Special Recommendation
I kindly urge you to take the time to read this blog authored by Liam Ireland, one of our esteemed Senior editors. In this blog, you will find valuable guidelines on the publishing process that can make it easier to get your work published.
