Without reflection, we go blindly on our way, creating more unintended consequences, and failing to achieve anything useful. — Margaret J. Wheatley

ILLUMINATION LOGO

It has been a productive day for ILLUMINATION hosting hundreds of fascinating stories from brilliant writers. We are discovered not only on Medium but also other content platforms. Bloggers from different platforms are interested in syndicating their reputable blogs to ILLUMINATION. They adore our diversity and engagement model.

I ‘d love to help them, but regrettably, the content development model for Medium does not allow this request. I created a story for the bloggers to transition them to Medium platform and amplify their blogs in Medium’s story format on ILLUMINATION. We continuously work on bringing more subscribers to enrich Medium ecosystem further. ILLUMINATION stories make a significant impact on our external readers. Details are in the attached story.

What did we create today?

The title of the story reveals it.

I received several inquiries from new writers who want to know how to add stories to publication. Please see the attached story providing step by step guidance by our editor Timothy Key.

ILLUMINATION Slack Channel

We created a writer collaboration platform using Slack. We have 300+ members. I added several writers to our Slack channel today. Thank you for the inquires and willingness to join our collaboration and innovation lab. New writers are invited to join our Slack to have a chat and collaborate with other inspiring writers. We discuss editorial matters, Medium policies, content quality, and overall writing skills improvement. You can request an invitation to Slack from this link. Please type Request for Slack on the heading as I have many other requests from this link.

You can check this story from Timothy Key to learn how to use Slack if you haven’t used it before.

New writers, please check our FAQ document for details of our publication. Our submission guidelines and several other useful documents are attached in this story.

Curated Articles from ILLUMINATION

As ILLUMINATION hosts an impressive number of high-quality stories distributed to the topics from our creative writers, I compiled those stories. I aim to create awareness for the high-quality stories so that our new writers can leverage these excellent stories, model the styles so that they can improve their stories for increasing chance of curation by Medium curators. You can find the complete list from the attached story.

I featured a great video created by Besom & Bletherskite for our YouTube channel.
