Self-Nominated Collections

My Most Viewed Stories Since I Began Writing on Medium

The top eleven in my writing portfolio

I am inspired to create this post after reading an invitation to writers called self-presented collections by Dr Mehmet Yildiz on Illumination Curated. Dr Yildiz encourages writers to select their top ten stories and submit them to this unique publication. His aim is to give a second life to our stories. Now writers can directly submit high quality stories to this pub.

In this post, I selected my top ten stories that received great visibility on Medium. I hope you enjoy them. These links are in no particular order.

I’m not a fan of “ Wokeness”.

If I was an office worker, I would work at home too.

I received quite a few angry responses, I find that amusing

Memories from when I was a security guard in Florida

I have written many articles about my time homeless

I have struggled my whole life with Learning Disabilities

I have always been misjudged

I received positive feedback on this article

I wanted to express my appreciation for Medium and Illumination

This story did well, which surprised me, I wrote it because I couldn’t think of anything else to write

Another recent story from when I was homeless in Minneapolis

Thank you for reading my stories.
