Dear new contributors,

Happy New Year. Welcome! We apologize for the slight delays caused by several editors on vacation. Adding many writers to publications is a tedious and time-consuming task. We are pleased to add your Medium account to our publications as new contributors. Thank you for joining ILLUMINATION Integrated Publications supporting more than 13,000 writers on Medium.

This post aims to inform writers joining our publications ILLUMINATION, ILLUMINATION-Curated, ILLUMINATION Book chapters, Technology Hits, SYNERGY, ILLUMINATION’S MIRROR, and Readers Hope.

Our publications operate on Medium. By using Slack, we extend collaboration capability. Our chief editor and owner of these publications, Dr. Mehmet Yildiz, will invite you to the Slack workspace via your registered email addresses in the writer application form. If you don’t get the invitation Slack, please leave a comment pointing out the problem in this article.

Your participation in the Slack workspace is free and optional. Many writers enjoy this free service. More than 10,000 members have joined to have meaningful interactions. You can easily access publications resources and editors using the Slack workspace. We have 80 volunteer editors who can help with your inquiries.

Our editors are writers like you on Medium. They understand your needs with empathy. These editors are not paid or compensated financially. Their purpose is to help you gain experience and visibility. You can read their profiles in this collection.

Publishing Guidance

We have seven publications serving various needs of writers. Our purpose is to help you reach a broader audience on Medium and beyond. Since our publications operate on Medium, all contributors need to adhere to the policies and rules of the platform.

Please check these two resources before submitting your stories.

You can find more information from stories listed in this collection.

We don’t censor content. However, your readers expect a basic level of English in your content. Therefore, you need to meet language requirements. We accept only English. Different publications support other languages. Please search Medium for your desired language. If you want to share raw content, you can submit them to the Readers Hope publication designed for this purpose. Other publications require the use of structured language.

Photo Handling Policy

Please pay attention to photos in your stories to meet our guidelines. When you submit articles with copyright-free images and cite them properly, your stories can be published quicker. Please review the image handling policy before submitting your articles. We don’t accept content with copyrighted images. It is against Medium rules and our publication policy.

Caution for Plagiarism

Editors regularly check plagiarism. They reject plagiarised content. We remove your accounts and stories from our publications when you attempt plagiarism. Medium also penalizes plagiarists. We warn our contributors rigorously due to dire consequences. We usually tolerate mistakes and support our writers to correct procedural and writing errors. However, we do not tolerate plagiarism and copyrighted photos.

Followers, Readers, and Subscribers

Your stories generate income with the help of your readers. Your content is paid based on reading times by paid members of Medium. Thus, performance metrics such as applause don’t matter for payment. However, followers count for getting at least 100 followers to join the Medium Partner Program. Please check these articles guiding to gain followers, building an audience, and maintaining subscribers.

Introduction to Illumination Integrated Publications

We see publications as tools to amplify content. We established several publications appealing to different types of readers.

We accept articles including multiple topics in ILLUMINATION, ILLUMINATION-Curated, ILLUMINATION’S MIRROR, and Readers Hope. We only restrict porn, conspiracy theories, defamation, and other harmful material for society. Medium does not support publishing harmful content, so please check the platform rules. We don’t censor content as long as stories meet Medium policies. Here is a brief introduction to our pubs.

1 — ILLUMINATION

Our most significant publication is ILLUMINATION. It is visited by over 40,000 unique members daily and gained two million minutes of reading this month. In addition, some stories went viral and brought many new readers.

You can find sample articles from this publication in our curated collections.

2 — ILLUMINATION’S MIRROR

This publication was designed for the requirements of prolific writers who need to submit multiple stories in a day. You can submit several stories to ILLUMINATION’S MIRROR within 24 hours. Please check this article for details: Balancing Load of ILLUMINATION.

3 — ILLUMINATION-Curated

This publication was designed for experienced and accomplished writers. Senior editors select the contributors for this publication using stringent criteria.

Here is a story introducing the purpose of Readers Hope: What If We can Transform Readers into Micro-Writers.

Editors introduced values of Readers Hope. We compiled their perspectives into a single story. Our editors are willing to support new writers to gain experience. Please check their stories. You may contact editors on Slack when you need support. They can help you learn and grow.

Here is the Vision and Mission of “Readers Hope”.

Summary of Publications on YouTube

We posted a YouTube video introducing our publications briefly.

Talking of YouTube, we have a new initiative to help our writers to create bios on YouTube. Details are in this story.

Onboarding Details for New Contributors

Levels of Writers

Our publications support writers at all levels, aspiring, experienced, accomplished, and influential. All types of contributors are equally important to us. We don’t tolerate toxic behavior. We remove online bullies and report to Medium.

However, we always encourage giving and receiving constructive feedback within the platform rules. We encourage new writers to find their voice in a safe and supportive environment. Beginners learn and build skills gradually. Some writers might learn faster. And some may learn slower.

Our goal is to create a diverse and inclusive writing and reading group on Medium. All Medium members are welcome to join our writing and publishing journey. We don’t discriminate. Instead, we always support all levels of writers, help them cross-pollinate, and get benefits from the readers of our publications

Draft vs Self-Published Submission

We accept both draft and self-publish articles. However, we highly recommend draft submissions to gain better exposure from the publication readers. It is your choice. Self-published stories quickly age and sink to the bottom of the front page.

If you have curated articles from closed publications, you are welcome to transfer them to ILLUMINATION-Curated. We encourage giving a home for previously distributed stories. Contributors who joined us from PSILY moved their stories and gained new readers on ILLUMINATION-Curated.

No Obligation for Staying

Our contributors are not exclusive to our pubs. You can join and contribute to other publications. We support your writing and marketing goals as suit your needs. You can remove your articles from our pubs if you need them. You leave our publications. You don’t need to obtain permission to leave. All we care is to follow Medium rules if you want your stories published in our publications. We consider publications as tools for the growth of contributors.

Consider Creating Your Own Publication

If you are interested in creating your own publications, we may help you promote them. Dr Mehmet Yildiz helped several writers to start their publications. He enjoys promoting them in his social circles. We don’t compete with other publications. Instead, we collaborate with them.

Importance of Slack for Writers

We highly recommend you join our Slack workspace as it is a valuable tool for maintaining communication and collaboration. You can learn more about Slack in this article: An Introduction to ILLUMINATION Slack Workspace.

Adding stories to publications

It is easy and quick to add articles to publications. To submit your draft or self-published articles to our pubs, you can click on the three (…) dots in the edit mode placed on the top right part of your screen. Select your preferred publication and click on the submit button. When your story is submitted to our publications, editors will review it. If the story meets Medium rules and our guidelines, the editor will publish it.

If you don’t see our publication on your list, let us know to add your account again by leaving a comment on this post. Glitches happen on publications and our process. We don’t ignore any ethical writer on Medium. Our doors are open to all members who want to serve their readers. We are a catalyst to your success.

8 — Recent Onboarding Packs

The purpose of adding these packs is to give you an opportunity to meet writers who joined our publications. It is impossible to find 13,000 writers in a single list. Medium publications cannot handle such a large number therefore we create workarounds for writers to find other writers easily. It is a tedious task for us but we invest this time to create vitality among writers. We have many packs but add only recent ones to help you start meeting other contributors easily. Here is the list starting from the most recent.
