LIFE AS AN ILLUMINATION WRITER
New Challenges for Writers on ILLUMINATION
In Dr. Yildiz’s recent Daily Story about the “1868 ILLUMINATION writers are illuminating 16,825 readers!”, he proposes a second challenge to ILLUMINATION writers to review one of the 36 “best stories” written by these members.
I enjoy writing challenges on ILLUMINATION. This is a great way to meet new writers and explore their stories. This new writing challenge is really cool. We have an opportunity to read self-assessed stories. If this challenge wasn’t created, many of us would miss the opportunity to get to read these great stories.
In his bulletin “Revealed with Passion” yesterday, Dr Mehmet Yildiz congratulated 36 writers who took the challenge and submitted their best stories. This is a great start, I reckon. You can start reading and reviewing stories of these great writers on ILLUMINATION. MaryJo Wagner, PhD, Gary Stroschein, Tree Langdon, Jill Reid, Michele Thill, Chowa Sekai, B. A. Cumberlidge., Daniella Mini, Bill Abbate, Stephen Dalton, Samantha Buck, Jeff Hanlon, Agnes Laurens, Kenneth Johnson, Jill Reid, Tyler Piteo-Tarpy, Jaye Frances, Diane Lee, Anna da Silva, Alison Tennent, Øivind H. Solheim, Jennifer Geer, Eli Snow, Infiniti, Elisabeth Khan, Sowmya Sridhar, Aurora Eliam, CMP, R Tsambounieri Talarantas, Robert Locke, Ravyne Hawke, Karen Madej, Dr. Jackie Greenwood, Evan Wolfson, Isabela Vasiliu, Ahmed Jamal, Sharon Hurley Hall
Thanks to Dr Mehmet Yildiz giving us an opportunity to get to know each other, connect, and explore great stories on ILLUMINATION.
This is my entry into the “Best” story challenge.
Challenge #2
If you wish to participate and review one of these writers, check the ILLUMINATION Daily Bulletin, “Best of Bests Are Emerging” published 27 June.
Dr Mehmet Yildiz suggests, “You need to review each story in a bundle. Leave a comment, tweet the story and write a brief note about what you learnt from each story. You share your views of the reviewed stories in your story titled ‘Review of Stories [Insert Name]’.
As an example, Dr. Yildiz reviewed one of our group’s (The 12-Hour Medium Read-Three Reset) founding members, Bill Abbate on that page.
You can read Bill’s Best here.
If, however, you wish to start with the first challenge, you can go to “A new challenge for ILLUMINATION writers” within “A Pragmatic Path to Excellence” and read the details of the challenge to participate if you wish.
