Why Many Writers Joined ILLUMINATION Rapidly
Daily Success Stories from ILLUMINATION
“Don’t be afraid to give up the good and go for the great” — Steve Prefontaine
2022 Update: Illumination now supports 16,000+ writers.
As founder and editor of ILLUMINATION, I made it easy and practical to access me and the editorial team via a weblink without the limitations of Medium. I enjoy interactions with our readers, writers, and aspiring writers. I receive fascinating messages each day. Communicating with our writers and readers is a privilege to me.
We also have a Slack workspace with thousands of members.
Today, I received an interesting message from an aspiring writer who came across our publication on Medium. The person was asking me why 350+ writers joined ILLUMINATION in such a short time. The person wanted to understand the value of our publication for the writers.
My answer was brief. We respect our writers, value their content, and support them to gain visibility to a wider audience. I had to cut my answer short because there were many other emails with new writer requests and reader feedback in the queue.
Instead of answering these kinds of open-ended questions myself, I asked the writers earlier today, and two of our top writers answered this question elegantly. I think it is better you learn from writers rather than the founder of the publication, who may be biased.
Here is what Brian E. Wish, PhD wrote about this topic:
Here is what Joe Luca wrote about his reason:
When I was reviewing the articles submitted to the publication, one of the articles attracted to my attention. It was from a published writer who turned out to be a super-achiever on Medium. The message in the story of P.G. Barnett meant a lot to me. I am pleased that our publication and the writers have a tremendous impact on the success of each other. Here is the engaging story of Mr Barnett with a terrific writing style and enthusiasm.
ILLUMINATION writers are honored and pleased by the joining of reputable writers and eminent professionals in their fields to our publication. Some examples are Helen Cassidy Page, Rosennab, Michael Patanella, @Marina T Alamanou PhD, Roz Warren, and Dr Caroline Figueroa who submitted fascinating stories today.
Some of our readers have already provided positive feedback on the insightful stories of these eminent writers. With this type of cross-pollination and ongoing collaboration, many of our writers leveled up in a month. We continue collaborating and learning from each.
One of our inspiring writers, Arthur G. Hernandez, submitted an insightful article on the importance of collaboration today. I highly recommend reviewing this fantastic story.
