When you do things from your soul, you feel a river moving in you, a joy. — Rumi

I am delighted to receive inundated complimentary feedback from our readers via social media, email, and other resources. The prevailing sentiment is “joyful tribe”. I loved our writers being characterized as joyful.

Our writers are inspiring and engaging. Our readers commented that these fun writers make our publication the most enjoyable platform on Medium. Many readers configured ILLUMINATION as their homepage. This is a great honor for our writers. We designed our joy collectively creating this synergy.

Some stories started trending getting thousands of views. I will share them in my next posts. My plan is to share the top ten daily trending stories in my upcoming stories. For example, today, a story by Britni Pepper received over 7,700 views with 4 min 16 sec average reading time.

Within the last six days, we had 63, 000 new visitors after a person who dislikes ILLUMINATION made defaming allegations on social media. I am grateful to that person for doing a great favor to our writers’ visibility. As my mentors advised, I learned not to hate enemies as they may turn out to be blessings in disguise. In this particular situation, it created a boomerang effect.

My focus was on identifying our top writers in many tags. Some of our readers want to explore the top writers and follow their content. I created the first version based on the information I received from our writers and created a story. I will update this story as more information becomes available.

What did ILLUMINATION writers create today?

Here is a bundle of stories that I was able to add to our distribution list today. Thank you for adding comments to create visibility to your great stories. You deserve recognition.

One of the purposes of this daily distribution is to access to our stories easily. You can read and share them easily. You can follow these great writers.

I recommend enjoying as many stories as possible from this list. If your story is not included, please leave a comment by linking your story so that readers get a chance to read your stories. There are many thought provoking stories today therefore I called it not for the faint-hearted.

You can find our previous distribution lists from the attached story.

You can check our publication page for more stories updated regularly.

Many readers are pleased to read our editor introductions.

Inspiration and Joy

I am pleased that the message in the story helped several affected writers to make the optimal decisions for their publishing options. I discovered several new publications established by our writers. I am proudly following them. I will do my best to support them to amplify messages of their publications and help them grow their followers.

You can find the complete list from the attached story. I update it regularly.

Content Quality Focus

We strive for excellence. We make every effort to increase the quality of our stories and provide an enjoyable reading experience to our followers. Quality is an iterative process. I notice that the quality of our stories is increasing day by day. The curation rate increased.

We need to be proactive and maintain quality.

New writers: please ensure that you check your stories for typos, spelling, and grammar errors before submitting them to the publication. Our readers deserve high quality stories.

We have some volunteering editors who can perform a proof-reading for the writers from the non-English speaking background. You can search for volunteers from our Slack channel. One of the proof-reading tools our writers recommend is Grammarly. There may be other applications that you can use to improve readability of your stories

We curate valuable content for our readers; we create awareness and visibility of our content to wider audience. We also amplify Medium articles on social media to bring new readers and subscribers.

If you have already applied from different means and not added to the publication yet, please try again by directly writing to me. Some messages are easily lost on articles.

Several new top writers joined us. We have now 2,200+ writers. The more the better for our diversity. We aim to appeal to millions providing diverse and insightful content globally.
